February 2023 in “Plants” This study reported that rice bran oil from the Thai rice variety BB4CMU showed potential in promoting melanin production and inhibiting steroid 5α-reductase, suggesting a natural option for hair revitalization.
November 2025 in “F1000Research” This study observed significant differences in skin fungal communities between healthy and alopecic cynomolgus macaques, suggesting certain microorganisms may be associated with alopecia in these primates.
This study reports that Hair RiseTM microemulsion, made from plant extracts, significantly enhanced hair follicle cell growth and improved hair growth signaling pathways, suggesting it as a plant-based alternative for androgenetic alopecia treatment.
In this study, the SFE-4 extract from coffee pulp demonstrated potential effects for treating androgenetic alopecia by enhancing cell proliferation and gene expression related to hair growth pathways in vitro, using human hair follicle dermal papilla and prostate cancer cells.
In this study, patient-reported flare symptoms after COVID-19 vaccination in individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus were generally mild, with 17% experiencing flares mostly characterized by joint pain and fatigue; vaccine type did not affect flare incidence.
January 2026 in “International Journal of Dermatology” This study reports two cases where acquired perforating dermatosis was localized to the scalp and coincided with acute diffuse alopecia, suggesting perifollicular inflammation may link the two conditions.
June 2025 in “Archives of Dermatological Research” March 2025 in “European Journal of Cell Biology” This review discusses the role of regulatory T cells, highlighting recent research on how prostanoids may modulate their function, but it reports no new findings.
October 2024 in “Photodermatology Photoimmunology & Photomedicine” In this study, participants with androgenetic alopecia who used an LED helmet emitting red and green light experienced significant improvements in hair growth measures, with red light showing superior results in increasing hair diameter and reducing vellus hair density over 6 months.
September 2024 in “Archives of Dermatological Research” This study found that both red and green LED therapies combined with a microneedling patch significantly improved hair density and diameter in androgenetic alopecia patients over 24 weeks, with no serious side effects and similar efficacy between the two light wavelengths.
February 2024 in “Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics & Gynecology” This study found no significant differences in fat distribution between Thai women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome, though PCOS women with abnormal glucose tolerance showed higher arm fat.
