October 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This review discusses recent advances in understanding the molecular landscape of the dermal papilla, particularly focusing on Blimp1's role in hair follicle development and potential therapeutic targets for hair regeneration, but presents no new clinical results.
October 2023 in “Current Issues in Molecular Biology” In this study, researchers observed that the YH complex, made from Astragalus membranaceus and Cinnamomum cassia, promoted hair regrowth and increased hair shaft thickness in mice, potentially through increased growth factors and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, suggesting its use for treating various forms of hair loss.
