,
January 2017 in “Intestinal Research” This study found that among Japanese IBD patients, the NUDT15 p.Arg139Cys variant was significantly associated with thiopurine-induced leukopenia and severe hair loss, suggesting its genotyping is important for predicting these adverse events.
August 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that TLR2 is crucial for maintaining hair follicle health and regeneration, and its stimulation by the metabolite CEP may promote hair growth, while decreases in TLR2 and CEP in aging and obesity may hinder hair growth.
