May 2021 in “Molecules” This study reports that the metanephrine content was significantly higher in patients with alopecia areata compared to those without the condition.
May 2026 in “Nature Communications” In this study, researchers identified that keloid fibroblasts respond to neurotransmitters from catecholaminergic nerves by producing bone matrix proteins, mediated by β1-adrenergic receptor activation, leading to fibro-osseous reprogramming; blocking this signaling in a rodent model prevented the development of keloid-like pathology.
