December 2020 in “Experimental and Molecular Pathology” This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia exhibit specific miRNA expression profiles, suggesting that abnormal miR-133b expression may inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and affect hair growth.
August 2025 in “Skin Research and Technology” This study discusses the potential of miR-200c-3p as a genetic marker and therapeutic tool for alopecia areata, but it highlights the need for additional methodological details and addresses discrepancies with previous findings on miRNA expression in hair-related processes.
