January 2015 in “Journal of Ginseng Research” This study found that ginsenoside Rg3 significantly inhibited melanogenesis in human melanocytes and B16F10 cells by activating the ERK pathway, suggesting potential as a skin-whitening agent.
July 2022 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that the KrasG12D mutation alters ERK signal dynamics in hair follicle stem cells, leading to tissue deformation, and suggests a collective effect of mutant cells is necessary for disruption.

April 2023 in “Science Advances” This study found that sustained ERK activity during tissue regeneration in spiny mice is linked to fibroblast growth factor and ErbB signaling, while inhibiting ERK shifted regeneration toward scarring.
October 2024 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” In this study, Rosa rugosa water extract improved hair length and thickness in a mouse model of DHT-induced alopecia by enhancing the expression of hair growth-promoting factors while inhibiting growth-suppressive proteins, suggesting its potential as a natural therapy for hair loss prevention.
