Therefore, proactive management and treatment of HAE-nC1INH patients after an expert physician diagnosis is critically important. The underlying pathophysiology responsible for the angioedema has also been clarified in some of the HAE-nC1INH types. While several clinical guidelines and practice parameters including HAE-nC1INH have been published, we have made substantial progress in our understanding encompassing diagnostic criteria, pathophysiology, and treatment outcomes. HAE International (HAEi) and the US HAE Association (HAEA) convened a symposium of global HAE-nC1INH experts to synthesize our current knowledge in the area.

Most of the literature focuses on delineating the genetic, molecular, and clinical impact of 22q11.2 DS, and less information focuses on the 22q11.2 duplication syndrome (22q11.2 DupS). We will cover both variants in this review and shed light on the less reported atypical 22q11.2 deletions and duplications. Variants in multiple genes in the 22q11.2 region, especially the TBX1 and DGCR8 genes, have been linked to the clinical phenotypes of 22q11.2 DS and 22q11.2 DupS. Variations in genes on the non-deleted homologous chromosome in the critical 22q11.2 region can further influence phenotypes by revealing recessive diseases. This effect has been documented for several genes in this area, such as SNAP29 and GP1BB. Neural crest development is usually impacted leading to various cardiovascular defects including Tetralogy of Fallot and truncus arteriosus. It can also cause palatal defects, especially velopharyngeal deficiency, considered another hallmark of 22q11DS. Individuals may also present with hypocalcemia and thyroid dysfunction due to impaired parathyroid gland formation and thyroid dysgenesis, respectively. Immunodeficiencies result from impaired T-cell development due to thymic hypoplasia, also a consequence of abnormal neural crest development. Humoral defects are also now increasingly recognized in these individuals. Psychiatric, neurocognitive, and developmental features are common, but severity varies across affected individuals. Other systems like the genitourinary, gastrointestinal, skeletal, and hematological are also involved. Monitoring and treating all the possible clinical manifestations require a multi-disciplinary approach to effectively address the plethora of clinical findings. The complex nature of the treatment guidelines reflects the clinical heterogeneity of these genetic variations. Further research is required to continue exploring the mechanisms relating to the impact of genetic aberrations in the 22q11.2 region on various clinical parameters. This will hopefully guide future updates to the current clinical practice guidelines to continue tailoring them to the individual needs of each affected person.</p>","PeriodicalId":10423,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology","volume":"68 1","pages":"23"},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143556040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current treatments, such as anti-androgen drugs and minoxidil, show heterogeneous effects, even with long-term application. Meanwhile, the large-scale adoption of other adjuvant therapies has been slow, partly due to insufficient mechanistic evidence. A major barrier to developing better treatment for AGA is the incomplete understanding of its pathogenesis. The predominant academic consensus is that AGA is caused by abnormal expression of androgens and their receptors in individuals with a genetic predisposition. Emerging evidence suggests the contributing role of factors such as immune responses, oxidative stress, and microbiome changes, which were not previously given due consideration. Immune-mediated inflammation and oxidative stress disrupt hair follicles' function and damage the perifollicular niche, while scalp dysbiosis influences local metabolism and destabilizes the local microenvironment. These interconnected mechanisms collectively contribute to AGA pathogenesis. These additional aspects enhance our current understanding and confound the conventional paradigm, bridging the gap in developing holistic solutions for AGA. In this review, we gather existing evidence to discuss various etiopathogenetic factors involved in AGA and their possible interconnections, aiming to lay the groundwork for the future identification of therapeutic targets and drug development. Additionally, we summarize the advantages and disadvantages of AGA research models, ranging from cells and tissues to animals, to provide a solid basis for more effective mechanistic studies.</p>","PeriodicalId":10423,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology","volume":"68 1","pages":"22"},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143536865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
