Anatomical context of Alopecia

  • The incidence of antibodies to individual hair follicle antigens in alopecia areata was up to seven times more frequent than in control sera and their level up to 13 times greater and was statistically significant for all five antigens [26].
  • Increased androgen binding capacity in sebaceous glands in scalp of male-pattern baldness [27].
  • Expression of the L-fucose moiety on infrainfundibular follicular keratinocytes of terminal follicles, its decreased expression on vellus and indeterminate follicles of androgenetic alopecia, and re-expression in drug-induced hair regrowth [28].
  • These data show that many patients with APS I have high-titer autoantibodies directed against the anagen matrix, cuticle, and cortex keratinocytes and a melanocyte nuclear antigen, and also that the hair follicle keratinocyte staining is associated with alopecia, especially alopecia totalis [29].
  • This study is an investigation of the function of peripheral blood monocytes from normal subjects and patients with AA, AU, and alopecia totalis (AT), with respect to the principal macrophage-derived angiogenic factor, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) [30].
 

Gene context of Alopecia

  • ATIC 347GG was associated with gastrointestinal side effects (OR 3.0, P < 0.01), while TSER*2/*2 (OR 5.4, P < 0.01) and SHMT1 1420CC (OR 3.2, P < 0.01) were associated with alopecia [31].
  • The possible role of TNF-alpha in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata may be called into question if our observation is repeated [32].
  • Recurrence of alopecia areata in a patient receiving etanercept injections [32].
  • Association analysis of IL1A and IL1B variants in alopecia areata [33].
  • This was due mainly to the contribution from mild cases of alopecia areata [OR 1.48 (0.96, 2.29)], suggesting that IL-1 alpha may have a particular role in the pathogenesis of this subgroup [33].
