December 2021 in “Frontiers in Microbiology” In this study, researchers found that cepharanthine significantly inhibited HSV-1 replication in vitro by interfering with specific signaling pathways, arresting the cell cycle, and inducing apoptosis in infected cells, highlighting its potential as an antiviral agent.
July 2022 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study suggests that particulate matter can induce inflammation in human outer root sheath cells, potentially affecting hair growth, through oxidative stress-dependent MAPK and JAK-STAT signaling pathways.
April 2025 in “Drug Design Development and Therapy” This study observed that the herbal extract WJWE promoted hair growth and protected hair follicle cells in a DHT-induced murine model of androgenetic alopecia, potentially by engaging the SIRT1/JNK/p38 MAPK and Wnt5A/β-Catenin signaling pathways.

January 2020 in “BioMed Research International” This study found that sinapic acid promotes the browning of 3T3-L1 adipocytes and may offer therapeutic potential for obesity by influencing mitochondrial biogenesis through the p38 MAPK/CREB signaling pathway.
March 2026 in “Molecules” In this laboratory study, researchers reported that Camellia sinensis seed flavonoids significantly reduced oxidative stress and inflammation in UV-irradiated skin cells by modulating key signaling pathways, highlighting its potential as a skincare ingredient for anti-inflammatory and anti-photoaging benefits.
