Reports in the literature suggest patients are more likely to suffer more than 1 autoimmune disease (30% of patients with generalized vitiligo have another autoimmune disease).1 However, there are few reports of cutaneous lupus erythematosus in association with vitiligo. We describe a 42-year-old woman with no family history of...

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is essential for melanocyte homeostasis and immune process, and abnormal AHR was observed in vitiligo. We previously identified the T allele of AHR -129C > T variant as a protective factor against vitiligo. However, biologica...
