August 2025 in “International Journal of Pharmaceutics” In AGA animal models, this study found that finasteride-loaded microspheres provided rapid and sustained dihydrotestosterone suppression, promoting hair regrowth through dual-phase drug release.
5 citations
,
February 2021 in “JCPSP. Journal of the College of Physicians & Surgeons Pakistan” This study investigated the relationship between early-onset androgenetic alopecia and metabolic syndrome in younger males, but the abstract does not report specific results.

,
January 2010 in “Hormone research in paediatrics” This study found that the R257X mutation in the AIRE gene is prevalent among Russian patients with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1, particularly in those with hypoparathyroidism and chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis.
46 citations
,
February 2016 in “Experimental Dermatology” This review discusses the genetic research developments in androgenetic alopecia, reporting no new clinical results, and highlights the potential for discovering novel therapeutic targets.
3 citations
,
August 2021 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that increased mRNA expression of the Ectodysplasin-A2-Receptor, observed across multiple species and tissues, may exacerbate inflammation during aging, suggesting potential benefits of blocking EDA2R/EDA-A2 signaling.
June 2023 in “GLOBAL JOURNAL FOR RESEARCH ANALYSIS” This review discusses platelet-rich plasma as a treatment for androgenetic alopecia and explains its mechanisms, but presents no new clinical results.
161 citations
,
August 2013 in “Journal of experimental botany” This study found that specific ATP-competitive TOR inhibitors (asTORis) decrease root growth in Arabidopsis thaliana in a dose-dependent manner, similar to their effects on mammalian cells.
1 citations
,
January 2019 in “Journal of Biomedical Science and Engineering” This study reports that monthly subcutaneous injections of concentrated growth factors improved hair appearance and density in patients with androgenetic alopecia, with no side effects observed in the follow-up period.
January 1980 in “Lluc: revista de cultura i d'idees” This study found that Agaricus bisporus-derived β-Glucan particles showed potential as an anticancer, antimicrobial, and antioxidant agent, inducing apoptosis and disrupting mitochondrial membrane potential in cervical cancer HeLa cells.
60 citations
,
January 2007 in “Human Genetics” In this study, researchers found that while the SNP rs6152 is strongly associated with androgenetic alopecia, the GGN triplet repeat is not, suggesting the causative variant is likely a non-coding one.
1 citations
,
January 2016 in “Journal of Microbial & Biochemical Technology” This study found that the free androgen index (FAI) is a superior marker of hyperandrogenism in men with premature androgenetic alopecia compared to DHEAS and testosterone levels.
1 citations
,
July 2021 in “Journal of Central South University. Medical sciences” This study investigates how exercise relates to the severity of androgenic alopecia and aims to guide patients in selecting appropriate exercise types and amounts, but reports no new clinical results.

April 2026 in “Inflammation and Regeneration” This study found that androgen inactivation pathways in scalp sebaceous glands change with age, specifically noting that AKR1C expression, including AKR1C4 previously thought liver-specific, declines with age and is sex dependent, which could impact hair follicle health during aging.
April 2026 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” This in silico study identified potential natural product compounds targeting a non-androgen pathway for promoting hair growth, but further laboratory validation is necessary before any clinical claims can be made.
