research Characterization of CD4+ Stem Cells of the Skin and Their Role in Skin Homeostasis and Tumorigenesis
CD4+ skin cells may be precursors to basal cell carcinoma.
research Deciphering the Functions of the Hair Follicle Infundibulum in Skin Physiology and Disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Immunology of the Human Nail Apparatus: The Nail Matrix Is a Site of Relative Immune Privilege
The nail matrix has a reduced immune response, protecting it from autoimmunity.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
research The Role of Hair Follicle Immune Privilege Collapse in Alopecia Areata: Status and Perspectives
Alopecia areata may be treated by restoring hair follicle immune privilege and adjusting immune responses.
research Fgf9 From Dermal γδ T Cells Induces Hair Follicle Neogenesis After Wounding
A protein from certain immune cells is key for new hair growth after skin injury in mice.
research Hair Follicle Immune Privilege and Its Collapse in Alopecia Areata
Hair follicles are normally protected from the immune system, but when this protection fails, it can cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Oral Lichen Planus: A Chronic Systemic Disease with Immune-Mediated Pathogenesis
Oral lichen planus is a chronic disease causing mouth discomfort and sometimes needs immunosuppressive treatment.
research How Our Microbiome Influences the Pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata
Our microbiome may affect the development of the hair loss condition Alopecia Areata, but more research is needed to understand this relationship.
research Dandruff Lesional Scalp Skin Exhibits Epidermal T Cell Infiltration and a Weakened Hair Follicle Immune Privilege
Dandruff is linked to increased T cells and weakened immune protection in hair follicles.
research Dandruff Is Associated With Perturbations of Hair Follicle Immune Privilege and the Infundibular and Epidermal Immune Microenvironment
Dandruff is linked to changes in the immune system of hair follicles and skin.
research Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) May Award Relative Protection from Interferon-γ-Induced Collapse of Human Hair Follicle Immune Privilege
CGRP may help protect hair follicles from immune system attacks, potentially slowing hair loss.
research UVB-Induced Depletion of Donor-Derived Dendritic Cells Prevents Allograft Rejection of Immune-Privileged Hair Follicles in Humanized Mice
UV light helped human hair transplants survive in mice without broad immunosuppression.
research Immune Privilege and Alopecia Areata
Restoring immune privilege in hair follicles could help treat certain types of hair loss.
research Alopecia Areata Update
Half of people with Alopecia Areata may see hair regrowth within a year without treatment, but recovery is unpredictable.
research Alopecia Areata Update
Despite progress in treatment, the exact cause of Alopecia areata is still unknown.
research Alopecia Areata: Pathogenesis, Genetic Factors, and Treatments Using Mouse Models
The document concludes that ongoing research using animal models is crucial for better understanding and treating Alopecia Areata.
research Transplantation Immunology: Solid Organ and Bone Marrow
Transplant success has improved with better immunosuppressive drugs and donor matching.
research Analysis of the Scalp of Women with AIDS Subjected to Autopsy: Epithelial, Follicular, and Immunologic Aspects
AIDS may cause changes in the scalp that increase infection risk and hair loss.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.
research Stress-Induced Production of Chemokines by Hair Follicles Regulates the Trafficking of Dendritic Cells in Skin
Hair follicles help attract immune cells to the skin during stress.
research Antigen Presenting Cells in the Skin of a Patient with Hair Loss and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Antigen presenting cells around hair follicles are crucial in SLE-related hair loss.
research Keratinocytes and Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells: The Heir and the Spare to Regenerative Cellular Therapies for Difficult-to-Heal Skin Wounds
Keratinocytes and adipose-derived stem cells can effectively heal difficult skin wounds.
research Human αβ and γδ T Cells in Skin Immunity and Disease
Certain types of T cells are essential for healthy skin and play a role in skin diseases, but more research is needed to improve treatments.
research Regulatory T Cells in Skin: Role of Foxp3+ CD4+ Tregs in Skin Homeostasis and Immune Tolerance
Skin's Regulatory T cells are crucial for maintaining skin health and could be targeted to treat immune-related skin diseases and cancer.
research Neuroendocrinology of Epithelial Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
research T Cell and Bacterial Microbiota Interaction at Intestinal and Skin Epithelial Interfaces
T cells and bacteria in the gut and skin help maintain health and protect against disease.
research Cicatricial Alopecia: What's New in Etiology?
Cicatricial alopecia, a permanent hair loss condition, is mainly caused by damage to specific hair follicle stem cells and abnormal immune responses, with gene regulator PPAR-y and lipid metabolism disorders playing significant roles.
research T Helper 17 Cell/Regulatory T-Cell Imbalance in Hidradenitis Suppurativa/Acne Inversa: The Link to Hair Follicle Dissection, Obesity, Smoking, and Autoimmune Comorbidities
