Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1993 as is usual in DDD, an increasednumber ofmelanocytes was not found in our patient, unlike the patient of Kameyama et aI. Kameyama and co-workers suggest that azelaic acid more easily penetrates active melanocytes; perhaps in our patient the melanocyteswere in a less active state.

Alopecia Universalis Successfully Treated With Adalimumab [PDF]
JAMA Dermatology, 2014 IMPORTANCE Alopecia universalis is an uncommon form of alopecia areata (AA) involving hair loss over the entire scalp and body and is often difficult to treat. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)inhibitors have been largely unsuccessful in treating AA and have been reported to induce or worsen AA in patients.We report herein a case of alopecia universalis ...
