April 2023 in “Cancer research” This study suggests that KRTAP2-3 may serve as a novel biomarker to identify cells in the polyaneuploid cancer cell state, which is linked to therapy resistance and poor prognosis in prostate cancer.
This study found that both intradermal BCG vaccine and intralesional triamcinolone acetonide were similarly effective for treating patchy alopecia areata, though intralesional triamcinolone was preferable due to fewer side effects associated with BCG vaccine.
July 2021 in “Journal of dermatology & dermatologic surgery” In this study, two patients with severe alopecia areata who did not respond well to oral tofacitinib showed more than 50% hair regrowth after a single dose of intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide.
In these randomized, placebo-controlled trials, patients with alopecia areata who received baricitinib showed significantly higher eyebrow and eyelash hair regrowth rates compared to placebo, with greater responses observed at the 4 mg dose and in those achieving overall scalp hair improvement by Week 52.
November 2025 in “The Journal of Immunology” This study observed that in human scalp hair follicles, BTNL2 expression is lower in stressed conditions, which correlates with increased cytotoxic activity by gamma/delta and CD8+ T cells, suggesting a possible role for BTNL2 in controlling immune responses relevant to alopecia areata.
July 2012 in “European journal of cancer” This study demonstrated that switching aE-catenin to aT-catenin in murine skin substantially rescued hyperproliferative and pre-cancerous conditions, but led to partial baldness, indicating potential functional discrepancies.
In this study, researchers examined Baricitinib's role as a treatment for Alopecia Areata, contrasting it with conventional therapies, and found that while effective, Baricitinib may cause adverse reactions depending on individual patient health histories.
November 2025 in “SKIN The Journal of Cutaneous Medicine” In this phase 3 trial, baricitinib showed effectiveness and safety in both adolescents and adults with severe alopecia areata, with adolescents achieving higher response rates despite more severe baseline conditions, suggesting the advantages of early treatment.

May 2018 in “Frontiers in plant science” This study found that overexpressing the PCaP2 protein in Arabidopsis enhanced drought tolerance by influencing ABA and SA signaling pathways and regulating root hair growth, suggesting a key role in water deficit response.
This study identified UBC22 as a novel E2 enzyme responsible for Lys11-linked ubiquitination in Arabidopsis, revealing its crucial roles in seed setting, female gametophyte development, and pathogen resistance.
May 2023 in “The Journal of Immunology” In this study, researchers found that BST2 expression is significantly upregulated in skin sections of mice with alopecia areata, implicating BST2's role in the disease pathogenesis through the action of epidermal γδ T cells and macrophages.
February 2025 in “Canadian Journal of Health Technologies” This review assessed the clinical and cost-effectiveness of baricitinib, an oral treatment for severe alopecia areata in adults, to inform Canadian reimbursement recommendations, excluding Quebec.
