September 2024 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that cardamonin may inhibit OSCC cell migration, proliferation, and invasion by affecting the PI3K/AKT pathway, suggesting its potential as a treatment.
June 2025 in “Stem Cell Research & Therapy” In this study, researchers found that isoproterenol, an adrenergic β2 receptor agonist, promoted hair growth and hair follicle stem cell proliferation in models of androgenetic alopecia by modulating the PI3K/AKT/β-Catenin pathway, suggesting a potential new therapeutic strategy for hair loss.
