February 2025 in “Applied Sciences” This study found that extracts from heterotropic cultures of Scenedesmus deserticola JD052 enhanced hair-inductive properties in human dermal papilla cells more effectively than photoautotrophic extracts, likely through activation of AKT/β-catenin signaling, despite similar loliolide content.

August 2023 in “Ecotoxicology and environmental safety” This study found that vitamin A significantly enhanced the proliferation and inhibited apoptosis of rabbit dermal papilla cells under heat stress, likely by modulating miR-195/IGF1 and Wnt10b/β-catenin signaling pathways.
This study found that vinegar-processed black soybean and its extract accelerated hair growth and prevented alopecia in mice, with potential mechanisms involving modulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, suggesting they may be promising functional foods for hair regeneration.

January 2022 in “Polymers” In this review, researchers reported that incorporating nanoparticles into natural-based biomaterials enhanced scaffolding properties, cellular interactions, and outcomes in wound healing, with promising implications for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, although many signaling pathways involved are still not fully understood.
July 2012 in “European journal of cancer” This study demonstrated that switching aE-catenin to aT-catenin in murine skin substantially rescued hyperproliferative and pre-cancerous conditions, but led to partial baldness, indicating potential functional discrepancies.
