Article Synopsis
- - Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA) is a type of scarring hair loss that primarily impacts individuals with darker skin tones and often leads to irreversible hair loss.
- - Genetic research indicates that around 30% of CCCA cases are linked to mutations in the peptidyl arginine deiminase 3 gene, which results in misfolded proteins.
- - The study suggests that CCCA involves a dominant CD4 T-cell response, shown by changes in inflammatory markers like PDL1 and caspase 3, indicating potential involvement of the PD1/PDL1 immune checkpoint pathway in the disease process.
How developmental programs reactivate in regeneration is a fundamental question in biology. We addressed this question through the study of Wound Induced Hair follicle Neogenesis (WIHN), an adult organogenesis model where stem cells regenerate de novo hair follicles following deep wounding. The exact mechanism is uncertain.
