October 2025 in “Ulusal travma dergisi” In this animal study, combined cellular therapy significantly improved diabetic wound healing, and probiotics further enhanced these effects by reducing oxidative stress, apoptosis, and inflammation while promoting vascularization and collagen organization.
January 2023 in “Radiation and Risk Bulletin of the National Radiation and Epidemiological Registry” In this study, heifers exposed to thyroid irradiation up to 30 Gy showed changes in thyroid hormone levels but tended toward recovery, without affecting immunity or productivity.

December 2007 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that human hair follicles may actively suppress natural killer cells, which contrasts with the observed defects in NK cell regulation in alopecia areata.
16 citations
,
March 2017 in “Oncotarget” This study suggests that SOCS3 treatment may effectively inhibit alopecia areata by suppressing CD8+ T cell activity and IFN-γ production.

April 2014 in “Cell biology international” This study found that melatonin treatment increased epidermal thickness, subcutaneous fat, and dermal-related factors in postmenopausal rats, suggesting benefits for skin structure after menopause.
May 2025 in “Journal of the Egyptian Womenʼs Dermatologic Society” This study found that immune privilege is preserved in hair follicles of nonsegmental vitiligo patients compared to those with alopecia areata, potentially protecting follicular melanocytes from autoimmune attacks.
8 citations
,
July 2011 in “Animal science journal” The researchers reported that keratin 33A is a structural protein specific to goat cashmere hair, with increased winter expression in high-cashmere-producing breeds.
This study found that in a rat model of alopecia, combining low-level laser therapy with Neoptide treatment resulted in better hair regrowth compared to either treatment used alone.
4 citations
,
April 2010 in “Expert review of dermatology” This article discusses the immune privilege in hair follicles and suggests that restoring its collapse might be an effective strategy for treating alopecia areata and cicatricial alopecia, but it reports no new clinical results.

,
November 2007 in “Experimental dermatology” This study found that prostaglandin receptors are widely expressed in hair follicles, suggesting a complex network of prostanoid pathways involved in hair growth control.
In this study, the researchers used a human hair follicle model to demonstrate that T cell stimulation can induce an alopecia areata–like phenotype, with cell proliferation and immune privilege collapse; however, the DHODH inhibitor farudodstat partially mitigated these effects by reducing T cell proliferation.
This study found that in an ex vivo model simulating alopecia areata, the DHODH inhibitor farudodstat reduced T-cell proliferation and MHC protein expression in hair follicles, suggesting it may protect against immune privilege collapse without cytotoxic effects.
47 citations
,
December 2011 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study suggests that the neuropeptide CGRP may protect against, but not restore, IFNγ-induced collapse of hair follicle immune privilege in alopecia areata.
January 2019 in “Springer eBooks” PLGA nanospheres in cosmetics improve skin and hair treatment effectiveness.
48 citations
,
September 2020 in “Frontiers in Immunology” In this study, researchers found that loss of OGG1 in a mouse model of systemic lupus erythematosus increased IFN-driven immune responses and aggravated skin lesions, suggesting a protective role for OGG1 in SLE skin disease.
4 citations
,
October 2024 in “Aesthetic Plastic Surgery” In this study, combining microneedle and sublative fractional radiofrequency treatments significantly improved skin tightening, texture, collagen organization, and satisfaction in individuals with moderate photoaging, while reducing abnormal elastin after three months.
29 citations
,
April 2019 in “Acta neuropathologica communications” This study found that β-sitosterol, a brain-penetrable phytosterol, reduced melanoma cell growth and brain metastasis formation by interfering with mitochondrial respiration, suggesting its potential as an adjuvant therapy to BRAF inhibitors for patients with melanoma brain metastases.
