January 2020 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science” This study found that applying a combination of pyridine‐2, 4‐dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester and resveratrol significantly increased hair density in Caucasian women after 1.5 months, potentially due to their synergistic effect on the HIF‐1α pathway.
December 2014 in “ScholarSpace (University of Hawaii at Manoa)” In this study, researchers observed that HIF1α is expressed in germ cells throughout fetal and neonatal development, suggesting it may regulate telomerase activity and maintain the undifferentiated state of stem/progenitor cells.
March 2025 in “Journal of Clinical Medicine” This study highlighted the potential of iron chelators, deferoxamine and deferiprone, to improve hair density, thickness, and elasticity and reduce hair loss by up to 66.8% over six months in individuals with autoimmune alopecia, suggesting they may offer a promising therapeutic option.

September 2014 in “PloS one” This study found that HIF1 and mTORC1 signalling were active in both basal cell carcinoma and trichoepithelioma, but the pathways do not reliably differentiate between the two.
January 2023 in “European journal of gynaecological oncology” This study found that depletion of KRT17 in endometrial cancer reduced cell growth, motility, and angiogenesis, suggesting KRT17 as a potential therapeutic target.
