May 2020 in “Biomolecules & Therapeutics” This study found that vanillic acid from wheat bran promoted dermal papilla cell proliferation, potentially stimulating hair growth by activating the PI3K/Akt and Wnt/β-catenin pathways.
June 2025 in “Stem Cell Research & Therapy” In this study, researchers found that isoproterenol, an adrenergic β2 receptor agonist, promoted hair growth and hair follicle stem cell proliferation in models of androgenetic alopecia by modulating the PI3K/AKT/β-Catenin pathway, suggesting a potential new therapeutic strategy for hair loss.
