Summary

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune, non-scarring hair loss disorder characterized by variable clinical severity. Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) plays a key role in innate immune activation and autoimmune responses. The rs3853839 polymorphism of the TLR7 gene has been implicated in immune-mediated diseases. This study aims to evaluate the association between TLR7 rs3853839 polymorphism and susceptibility to alopecia areata, and to assess its correlation with disease severity measured by the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score.
