Patients with certain skin symptoms and high ANA titers should be monitored for potential systemic lupus.
research Alopecia Areata: A Multifactorial Autoimmune Condition
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing patchy hair loss, often with other autoimmune disorders, but its exact causes are unknown.
research Smad7-Induced Beta-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research Evidence-Based Guideline for the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Women and Men – Short Version
Use minoxidil for hair loss treatment; assess results after 6 months.
research Epithelial-To-Mesenchymal Transition in Cutaneous Wound Healing: Where We Are and Where We Are Heading
The document concludes that a better understanding of cell changes during wound healing could improve treatments for chronic wounds and other conditions.
research Vitamin D and the Skin: Focus on a Complex Relationship
