October 2018 in “Archivio Istituzionale della Ricerca (Universita Degli Studi Di Milano)” This review discusses mechanisms and potential dietary influences on alopecia, proposing molecular targets like TRPVs and endocannabinoids as avenues for treatment but reports no new clinical results.
May 2025 in “UNESP Institutional Repository (São Paulo State University)” In this randomized clinical trial, minoxidil at 5 mg was not found to be superior to 2.5 mg for treating male androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks, though the higher dose more frequently caused side effects like pre-tibial edema and dizziness.
In this research, low-fluence light-based hair removal was explored, revealing its potential for at-home use with improvements in efficacy and safety, particularly for dark skin individuals, although further studies are necessary.

January 1995 in “Lincoln University Research Archive (Lincoln University)” In this study, researchers found that wool growth regulation is likely achieved through endocrine growth factors, with various growth factors inhibiting fibre growth in vitro.
August 2018 in “Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)” This research observed that chronological age, rather than hearing loss, primarily affects the auditory cortex in aging, and found that brain aging in PolG mice mirrored that of wild-type counterparts, suggesting differential tissue sensitivity to mitochondrial dysfunction.
January 2008 in “LA Referencia (Red Federada de Repositorios Institucionales de Publicaciones Científicas)” This study found that the gene for the enzyme aromatase is expressed in scalp hair follicles of women and is negatively correlated with LH levels, potentially reflecting the hormonal environment of hair follicles in PCOS.
