Characterizing the Skin and Gut Microbiome of Alopecia Areata Patients

2020-01-28

Abstract excerpt

Background: Alopecia areata (AA) is caused by autoimmune attack of the hair follicle. The exact pathogenesis is unknown, but hypotheses include innate immunity imbalance, environmental exposures, genetic predisposition, and possibly the microbiome. The objective of this study was to characterize the skin and gut microbiome of AA patients, and compare microbial composition to healthy individuals. Methods: This was...
