January 2014 in “Rinsho Shinkeigaku” This case report suggests an immunological link between multifocal acquired demyelinating sensory and motor neuropathy and alopecia, with both conditions improving after treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin.
September 2016 in “Journal of Dermatological Science” This study found that plasmacytoid dendritic cells may initiate alopecia areata in mice by overexpressing interferon-alpha.
April 2017 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that dysregulated microRNA expression in mice may be linked to aberrant gene activity that contributes to the development of alopecia areata.

June 2015 in “F1000Research” This study examined immune responses to Diphencyprone and found that its induced skin reactions have higher levels of negative immune regulators compared to psoriasis, suggesting differences in immune regulation may contribute to psoriasis chronicity.
This study found that ILC1-like cells can induce alopecia areata symptoms in both ex vivo human hair follicles and in vivo mouse models, challenging the view that alopecia areata is solely CD8+ T cell-driven.

July 2005 in “International Journal of Dermatology” Vitiligo is caused by the immune system attacking skin pigment cells.
June 2023 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” In this abstract, the issue of "microinflammation" in hair follicles, central to androgenetic alopecia, is described as involving an inflammatory process with Langerhans cells and keratinocytes presenting antigens to T lymphocytes, leading to an immune response with macrophages or natural killer cells destroying these antigens.
October 2023 in “Frontiers in medicine” Targeted immunotherapy could be a promising new treatment for hair regrowth.
July 2026 in “The Journal of Immunology” This study in a murine model of alopecia areata found that IFNg is crucial while perforin is not necessary for CD8 T cell-mediated disease development.
1 citations
,
April 2019 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that anagen stage protein homogenates and specific epitopes from melanogenesis proteins activated CD8 T cells, suggesting alopecia areata is an anagen-specific disease.
18 citations
,
September 1990 in “Veterinary Dermatology” This study in SPF lambs found that primary and secondary orf virus infections trigger similar skin responses, but the primary infection caused a more severe and prolonged reaction.
In this study, researchers observed that dysregulated innate lymphoid cells type 1, alongside CD8+ T cells, may contribute to the pathogenesis of alopecia areata by affecting hair follicle health.
September 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that sweat glands may have an immune privilege similar to hair follicles, and disruptions in this could contribute to autoimmune skin diseases.
1 citations
,
April 2024 in “Indian Journal of Pharmacy Practice” This source discusses autoimmune disorders, noting that the presence of autoantibodies can precede disease development, especially in genetically predisposed individuals, with various triggers like vitamin D deficiency and UV exposure potentially influencing onset and severity.
49 citations
,
August 2022 in “Frontiers in Immunology” This paper discusses the evolving understanding of psoriasis pathogenesis with no new clinical findings; the authors highlight the role of T-cell plasticity and regulatory cells, calling for further clinical applications using single-cell technologies.

,
October 1996 in “Dermatologic Clinics” This review discusses androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata through a systems biology lens, emphasizing the role of multi-omics data integration to explore molecular mechanisms and potential therapeutic strategies, but offers no new clinical results.
This chapter reviews fungal skin diseases in pigs, including urticarial and autoimmune conditions, but does not report new clinical findings.
February 2018 in “Trends in Immunology” This study demonstrated that antigens from the skin bacterium Staphylococcus epidermidis can stimulate CD8+ T cells, which in turn enhance wound healing.
