July 2001 in “Genes & Development” This study found that Tcf3 and Lef1 differently regulate cell differentiation in multipotent skin stem cells, with Tcf3 promoting follicle-like features and Lef1, when modified, promoting sebocyte differentiation.
June 2026 in “Frontiers in Medicine” This study evaluated the 308-nm excimer laser as an adjuvant treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found it may stabilize hairline recession and improve erythema and perifollicular hyperkeratosis, with transient erythema as the only reported adverse effect.
January 2025 in “PLoS ONE” This study identified the transcription factor Elf5 as a novel regulator of keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation in skin, with expression elevated in stem/progenitor cell populations, suggesting its potential role in determining cell fate during skin and hair development.
January 2026 in “Dermatologic Therapy” This study found that a novel topical dutasteride lotion, FOL100, demonstrated excellent safety, tolerability, and usability with promising signs of clinical benefit for mild-to-moderate male pattern baldness.
June 2018 in “International Review of Intellectual Property and Competition Law” January 2017 in “The American Pharmacists Association eBooks” January 2017 in “The American Pharmacists Association eBooks” This study found that the Arabidopsis thaliana protein Formin 2 localizes to plasmodesmata and is crucial for regulating their permeability by anchoring actin filaments, which affects virus susceptibility.

February 2021 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that novel RNA aptamers specifically inhibited FGF5-induced cell proliferation, suggesting their potential as candidates for treating FGF5-related diseases or hair disorders.
June 2018 in “The Journal of Sexual Medicine” In this study, finasteride was found to significantly reduce DHT levels and affect spermatogenic markers in rats, while DA-9401 co-treatment indicated potential ameliorative effects.
May 2020 in “riUfes (Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo)” This study found that finasteride is stable under various stress conditions except for basic hydrolysis at extreme pH levels and identified compatible and incompatible excipients in pharmaceutical formulations, suggesting formulation changes for increased safety.
