April 2020 in “American Journal Of Pathology” The document reviewed the pathobiology of skin aging, identifying it as a degenerative process influenced by intrinsic and environmental factors, leading to structural changes such as epidermal thinning, loss of dermal papillae, and decreased collagen and elastin, which contribute to wrinkles and sagging. It highlighted the role of stem cell dysfunction, genetic factors, and immune system decline in skin deterioration, noting increased susceptibility to infections and skin cancer. The review argued for recognizing skin aging as a disease due to its health implications and variability among individuals. It also discussed the psychological impact of skin aging and advocated for public health strategies to mitigate its progression. The document emphasized the complex interplay between skin aging, stem cell function, and immune response, suggesting potential interventions like targeting sirtuins to reverse aging effects.

September 2018 in “Journal of pharmaceutical sciences” The model better predicts how water-loving and fat-loving substances move through the skin by including tiny pores and hair follicle paths.
November 2024 in “Research Square (Research Square)” Moracin M, a compound from the Moraceae family, has been shown to significantly enhance hair growth by promoting cell proliferation and angiogenesis in human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs). The study found that Moracin M activates the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, leading to increased levels of growth factors such as VEGF, FGF2, KGF, HGF, and MYC, similar to the effects of minoxidil. It also enhances cell migration in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) without cytotoxicity at concentrations up to 50 µM. Additionally, Moracin M increases protein and mRNA levels of VEGF, FGF2, and KGF under inflammatory conditions and stimulates MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression, contributing to wound healing. These results suggest that Moracin M could be a promising alternative to current hair growth treatments.
