June 2023 in “European Journal of Endocrinology” This study identified serum androsterone as a robust biomarker for monitoring response to AKR1C3 inhibitor treatment in women and found that a 4-week administration of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 inhibitors did not impact ovarian function.
August 2026 in “Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology” This abstract does not report results but indicates that the supplementary material includes comprehensive methodology, additional results, statistical analyses, discussion, and limitations of the Alopecia Areata Relapse Study Group's findings as presented in the main manuscript.
September 2023 in “Open Repository of the University of Porto (University of Porto)” September 2023 in “British Journal of Dermatology” In this study, researchers found that patients with severe alopecia areata show varied regrowth timelines with baricitinib, and those with the most severe cases may still experience delayed but eventual improvement.
January 2026 in “Skin Health and Disease” This study conducted a survey among consultant dermatologists in Ireland to explore their use of JAK inhibitors for treating alopecia areata, acknowledging challenges posed by the lack of global guidelines and long-term safety data.
March 2025 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing IKZF1 developed lesions similar to alopecia areata, suggesting that Ikaros may play a role in the disease's pathogenesis. Ikaros expression was also higher in human alopecia areata patients compared to controls.
February 2022 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” This study found that pre-treating hair with argan oil reduced protein loss and provided protection against oxidative damage, supported by both ATR spectrum analysis and protein measurements.
This research reported that AKR1C enzyme expression, particularly AKR1C4, in scalp sebaceous glands decreases with age, suggesting potential age-related changes in androgen metabolism affecting hair follicle health. Additionally, sulforaphane treatment increased AKR1C expression in related cell types.
January 2026 in “Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark” This study reported that, in a laboratory setting, araliadiol derived from Centella asiatica activated antioxidant pathways, mitigating urban particulate matter-induced oxidative stress and skin damage.
