Lupus can cause different skin problems, and treatments like quitting smoking and using certain creams or medicines can help.

This review reports that psoriatic alopecia, a type of hair loss linked to psoriasis, is difficult to diagnose and often resistant to conventional treatments, highlighting the need for further research into its immune-related mechanisms and personalized treatment approaches for better management.

This review discusses the potential autoimmune etiology of vitiligo and its association with other autoimmune diseases but provides no new research findings; the authors highlight various treatment options.

This meta-regression analysis observed a slightly negative but nonsignificant correlation between vitamin D levels and the severity of alopecia areata, suggesting a complex relationship that requires further investigation.

This study characterized two siblings with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets and a mutation in the vitamin D receptor, finding no immune-related disorders despite a defective T cell response to vitamin D.

This review discusses the involvement of vitamin D and its receptor in hair health, focusing on different types of alopecia, but reports no new clinical results; evidence remains inconsistent.

This minireview discusses a proposed model of the vitamin D receptor that explains how 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 can mediate both genomic and rapid responses through different ligand shapes and cellular locations, without presenting new research findings.

This review summarizes the proposed model that describes how different shapes of 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 ligands interact with the vitamin D receptor to mediate genomic and rapid responses in cells.
