    Abstract:

    In a study of 24 patients with alopecia areata, scalp biopsies were examined for immunofluorescence; all were negative. A number of other tests also failed to confirm an auto-immune aetiology for this disease. A possible explanation lies in the heterogeneity of alopecia areata, only a small proportion of cases being of the auto-immune type.

    Immunofluorescence Microscopy

    A fluorescence microscope uses fluorescent chromophores called fluorochromes, which can absorb energy from a light source and then emit this energy as visible light. Fluorochromes include naturally fluorescent substances (such as chlorophylls) and fluorescent stains that are added to the specimen to create contrast. Dyes such as Texas red and FITC are examples of fluorochromes. Other examples include the nucleic acid dyes 4’,6’-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), and acridine orange.
