March 2018 in “Journal of labelled compounds & radiopharmaceuticals” In this study, researchers developed a new prostate cancer imaging agent, a [99m Tc]tricarbonyl complex derived from finasteride, which demonstrated high radiochemical purity and significant uptake in the prostate of a rat model, suggesting its potential for noninvasive prostate cancer imaging.
February 2026 in “Chemical Engineering Journal” This study found that a novel nano-engineered platform, PCA, significantly promoted hair regeneration in an androgenetic alopecia mouse model by enhancing angiogenesis and hair follicle stem cell proliferation, showing promise for future hair regrowth treatments.
June 2026 in “Archives of Dermatological Research” This study observed that PCAT1 and HOTAIR gene expressions were significantly lower in individuals with androgenic alopecia compared to healthy controls, suggesting their potential involvement in the condition's pathogenesis.
