July 2024 in “Pharmacology Research & Perspectives” In this phase 2a study of adults with alopecia areata, researchers observed that ritlecitinib treatment did not result in significant differences in brainstem auditory evoked potential changes or axonal swelling compared to placebo, suggesting the dog toxicity findings may not be clinically relevant in humans.

July 1999 in “Journal of Anatomy” This study found that methylene blue staining may reveal anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat mystacial pad with greater clarity than the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide technique.

July 1999 in “Journal of Anatomy” This study observed that methylene blue staining and zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide techniques effectively revealed anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat's mystacial pad, suggesting their potential role in mechanoreception.
August 2025 in “Scientific Reports” In this study, researchers observed that intractable pruritus in anterior chest keloid lesions is linked to increased intraepidermal nerve fibre density and elevated expression of substance P, without differences in Langerhans cells across different keloid regions.
