Project description:Two patients with alopecia areata were treated with systemic ruxolitinib. Skin biopsies were taken before starting treatment and 12 weeks after starting treatment. We used microarrays to assess changes in gene expression of affected skin before and after starting treatment Two patients with alopecia areata were recruited for our study. Skin biopsies of affected scalp were taken prior to starting treatment with oral ruxolinitib. Additional skin biopsies were taken 12 weeks after starting treatment. Scalp skin biopsies were taken from patients without alopecia areata for comparison. RNA was extracted, cDNA libraries were made and profiled on affymetrix microarray chips.

Project description:The samples include RNA from scalp biopsies before treatment and at 8 weeks of treatment with Tofacitinib Citrate 5 mg BID in patients with Alopecia Areata. 32% had a SALT score of 50% or higher and 47% had clinically significant response.
Project description:This goal of these studies were to examine gene expression profiles of skin from patients with alopecia areata undergoing treatment with oral ruxoltinib. Microarray analysis was performed to assess changes in gene expression in affected scalp skin.
Project description:In this study, we use single-cell ATAC sequencing (scATAC-seq) and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to map chromatin accessibility and gene expression in human scalp samples from healthy patients and patients with alopecia areata

Project description:Our goal was to develop a transcriptomic description of affected alopecic scalp skin from patients with alopecia areata. 5 biological replicates of skin samples from 5 separate AA patients compared with 5 similar scalp samples from healthy control patients
