October 2024 in “Experimental Dermatology” In this study, researchers identified 173 differentially expressed genes in alopecia areata patients linked to immune and hair follicle pathways, constructed a regulatory network involving mRNA, miRNA, and lncRNA, and highlighted CD8A and FOXD2-AS1 as potential diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets.

December 2023 in “International journal of molecular sciences” In this study, researchers found that miR-199a-3p plays a regulatory role in hair follicle development via the PTPRF/β-catenin axis and established a mouse model of alopecia areata by downregulating this small RNA, suggesting its potential value in studying alopecia diseases.
