Hair follicle immune privilege and its collapse in alopecia areata
Open accessAbstract
Anagen stage hair follicles (HFs) exhibit “immune privilege (IP)” from the level of the bulge downwards to the bulb. Both passive and active IP mechanisms protect HFs from physiologically undesired immune responses and limit immune surveillance. IP is relative, not absolute, and is primarily based on absent, or greatly reduced, intra‐follicular antigen presentation via MHC class I and II molecules, along with prominent expression of “no danger” signals like CD200 and the creation of an immunoinhibitory signalling milieu generated by the secretory activities of HFs. Perifollicular mast cells, Tregs and other immunocytes may also contribute to HF IP maintenance in healthy human skin. Collapse of anagen hair bulb IP is an essential prerequisite for the development of alopecia areata (AA). In AA, lesional HFs are rapidly infiltrated by NKG2D + T cells and natural killer (NK) cells, while perifollicular mast cells acquire a profoundly pro‐inflammatory phenotype and interact with autoreactive CD8+ T cells. Using animal models, significant functional evidence has accumulated that demonstrates the dominance of the immune system in AA pathogenesis. Purified CD8+T‐cell and NK cell populations alone, which secrete fγ, suffice to induce the AA phenotype, while CD4+T‐cells aggravate it, and Tregs and iNKT cells may provide relative protection against AA development. While IP collapse may be induced by exogenous agents, inherent IP deficiencies might confer increased susceptibility to AA for some individuals. Thus, a key goal for effective AA management is the re‐establishment of a functional HF IP, which will also provide superior protection from disease relapse.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
