Physiopathology and genetics of vitiligo.

Journal of autoimmunity - 1 Jan 2005

Passeron Thierry, Ortonne Jean-Paul

Abstract excerpt

Generalized vitiligo is an acquired disorder in which white patches of skin and overlying hair result from autoimmune loss of melanocytes from involved areas. The autoimmune pathogenesis of vitiligo has become a rapidly evolving field of research. A humoral immune reaction has been implicated through the detection of circulating antibodies. However, recent research focuses on a melanocyte-specific...
