March 2024 in “Pathogens” The systematic review reports an association between Beau’s lines and COVID-19 infection or vaccination, observing variability in onset and resolution times, and suggesting these nail disorders might indicate previous severe infection or vaccination, as well as potentially signify long COVID-19 syndrome.
In this study, researchers performed a genome-wide characterization of the Wnt gene family in domestic donkeys, identifying 19 genes and highlighting their evolutionary conservation among mammals, along with tissue-specific expression patterns potentially linked to reproductive regulation and tissue homeostasis.
January 2026 in “Biospecies” In this study, a hair tonic containing black fungus extract was shown to have antifungal activity against Malassezia furfur, with the 70% extract concentration providing the strongest effect.
October 2025 in “Jurnal Mutu Pangan Indonesian Journal of Food Quality” This study found that adding 25% Brebes shallot powder to wet noodles significantly extended their shelf life to 67.33 hours, compared to 15.33 hours for noodles without preservatives, while also affecting sensory attributes like taste and texture.
August 2025 in “Frontiers in Immunology” This study found that patients with primary cicatricial alopecia are at higher risk of developing various comorbidities, including systemic lupus erythematosus, hypothyroidism, and dermatological conditions, compared to controls.
July 2025 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study developed a potent Wnt surrogate with high specificity for the Fzd7 receptor in mice, promoting full hair follicle regeneration and robust hair growth, suggesting potential applications in tissue development and targeted regeneration.
July 2025 in “OPAL (Open@LaTrobe) (La Trobe University)” This study found no significant differences in platelet concentration or hair growth outcomes between single-spin and double-spin PRP centrifugation methods for treating androgenic alopecia, suggesting that the simpler single-spin approach may be preferable.
October 2024 in “Frontiers in Nutrition” This study found that patients with alopecia, particularly alopecia areata and female pattern hair loss, often have vitamin D deficiency, suggesting that screening for vitamin D could benefit these patients.
August 2024 in “Journal of Clinical Medicine” This review examines quality control in preparing platelet-rich plasma, highlighting knowledge gaps in its clinical efficacy and safety, but reports no new clinical results.
January 2024 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” This systematic review found that platelet-rich plasma may increase hair density and count in male androgenetic alopecia, though limitations in study quality and consistency suggest further research is needed.
September 2026 in “Wound Repair and Regeneration” This systematic review suggests that stem cell-based therapies may offer potential benefits for healing pure venous ulcers, but findings are preliminary due to small sample sizes and varied interventions.
September 2026 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” This review reports limited evidence suggesting that stem cell-based therapies, particularly using human-derived mesenchymal stem cells and exosomes, may be effective for skin rejuvenation, though results are uncertain due to methodological limitations and variability across studies.
