A recently updated Cochrane systematic review 'Interventions for vitiligo' showed that the research evidence for treatment of vitiligo is poor, making it difficult to make firm recommendations for clinical practice. OBJECTIVES To stimulate and steer future research...

Vitiligo is an acquired cutaneous disorder of pigmentation, with an incidence of 0.5% to 2% worldwide. There are three major hypotheses for the pathogenesis of vitiligo that are not exclusive of each other: biochemical/cytotoxic, neural and autoimmune. Recent data provide strong evidence supporting an autoimmune pathogenesis of vitiligo. As vitiligo can have a major effect on quality of life, t...

BACKGROUND Vitiligo is an acquired, idiopathic disorder characterized by circumscribed depigmented macules and patches. The exact etiology and pathogenesis of vitiligo is not clear. Many theories have been presented regarding this subject among them aautoimmune theory is the most important one. The association of vitiligo with other autoimmune disorders has been reported, but the relationship b...

The mutant Smyth line (SL) chicken developed by Dr. J. Robert Smyth, Jr. at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA, is the only animal model for autoimmune vitiligo that recapitulates the entire spectrum of clinical and biological manifestations of the human disease. The onset and incidence of SL vitiligo is predictable, the lesion is easily accessible and the target tissue (feather) rege...

Childhood vitiligo differs from adult-onset vitiligo for several features including increased incidence of the segmental variant, higher prevalence of halo nevi, and more common family history for autoimmune diseases and atopic diathesis. The major differential diagnoses are the postinflammatory hypomelanoses for nonsegmental vitiligo and nevus depigmentosus for segmental vitiligo. From a thera...

BACKGROUND A study about the association of psoriasis and vitiligo is necessary due to possible immunologic origin of these diseases and their susceptibility loci found on chromosome 1p31. OBJECTIVE The main objective was to determine the prevalence of psoriasis among patients with vitiligo in a sample of 740 patients submitted to phototherapy and to describe their clinical features. METHOD Out...

OBJECTIVES Vitiligo is an acquired skin disease characterized by white areas on the skin. The pathogenesis of the disease is still unclear. Some findings show that oxidative stress could be an important phenomenon in the pathophysiology of vitiligo. METHODS We evaluated 16 consecutive localized vitiligo patients and 16 healthy controls of a similar age and sex distribution. We measured their ...

Autoimmune disturbances and metabolic abnormalities observed in vitiligo, a disease of still unclear etiology, may provide evidence on the systemic nature of the disease. The aim of the study was to assess functional and morphological parameters of the liver and spleen, as well as the lipid profile in vitiligo-affected children, in order to ascertain whether any metabolic abnormalities or struc...

Background: Vitiligo is an acquired, idiopathic disorder characterized by milky white patches devoid of identifiable melanocytes. Despite much research, the precise etiology of vitiligo is not clear, but it has become quite clear in recent years that complex genetic, neural, immunological and autocytotoxic mechanisms play a role in its pathogenesis. In recent studies, a defective antioxidant de...
