September 2006 in “The Journal of Immunology” This study identified that mouse MILL1 and MILL2 are glycoproteins distinct from human MICA/B, primarily due to their association with β2-microglobulin and TAP-independent surface expression.
January 2025 in “Archives of Dermatological Research” This research observed that Moracin M, a compound from the Moraceae family, significantly promotes hair growth and angiogenesis via the Wnt signaling pathway in human dermal papilla cells, offering a promising alternative to current hair growth treatments like minoxidil.
November 2024 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study reported that Moracin M, a compound from the Moraceae family, significantly promoted hair growth and vascular regeneration by enhancing cell proliferation and Wnt signaling activation in laboratory settings, suggesting it may offer a promising alternative to existing hair growth treatments like minoxidil.
January 2025 in “Institutional Repositories DataBase (IRDB)” This study observed that topical application of maslinic acid stimulated hair growth in mice comparably to minoxidil, possibly through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and involving ciliary gene activity, highlighting increased levels of trichogenic gene expression and protein levels.
