April 2006 in “Brain Research” This study found that stimulation with certain neurotransmitters and hormones suggests the involvement of 5α-reduced neurosteroids in glial cell differentiation in rat C6 glioma cells.
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.
July 2026 in “Italian Journal of Anatomy and Embryology” This study found that induced pluripotent stem cells derived from human keratinocytes efficiently differentiated into cardiomyocytes, forming a homogeneous population with cardiac-specific molecular and functional properties, and demonstrated significant cardiac marker expression and spontaneous contraction capabilities over 15 days of differentiation induction.
