Abstract
Vitiligo is a chronic dermatological condition marked by the loss of skin pigmentation. Its complex etiology involves multiple factors and has not been completely elucidated. Protein post-translational modification pathways have been proven to play a significant role in inflammatory skin diseases, yet research in the context of vitiligo remains limited. This review focuses on the role of post-translational modifications in vitiligo pathogenesis, especially their impact on cellular signaling pathways related to immune response and melanocyte survival. Current therapeutic strategies targeting these pathways are discussed, emphasizing the potential for novel treatments in vitiligo management.
期刊介绍:
IMMUNOLOGIC RESEARCH represents a unique medium for the presentation, interpretation, and clarification of complex scientific data. Information is presented in the form of interpretive synthesis reviews, original research articles, symposia, editorials, and theoretical essays. The scope of coverage extends to cellular immunology, immunogenetics, molecular and structural immunology, immunoregulation and autoimmunity, immunopathology, tumor immunology, host defense and microbial immunity, including viral immunology, immunohematology, mucosal immunity, complement, transplantation immunology, clinical immunology, neuroimmunology, immunoendocrinology, immunotoxicology, translational immunology, and history of immunology.
