April 2026 in “Cellular and Molecular Immunology” In a conditional knockout mouse model, this study found that loss of the transcription elongation factor SPT6 in basal keratinocytes led to psoriasis-like skin inflammation and delayed wound healing, suggesting SPT6 plays a crucial role in maintaining epidermal immune quiescence by suppressing proinflammatory NF-κB signaling.
February 2026 in “Humanities & Social Sciences Reviews” This study reviewed existing literature on mesotherapy as a treatment for androgenetic alopecia, finding that it may improve hair density and thickness with generally mild side effects, but emphasized variability in study designs limits the strength of these conclusions.
This study suggests that a combination of blue light photobiomodulation and biomimetic peptide infiltrations may effectively increase hair density in patients with androgenetic alopecia.
