,
November 2017 in “Gynecological Endocrinology” This study found that serum myo-inositol oxygenase levels do not differ between women with polycystic ovary syndrome and healthy controls, suggesting that MI deficiency in PCOS is not due to MIOX levels.
2 citations
,
November 2012 in “Archimer (Ifremer)” This study found that progression ads are more persuasive for individuals with a weak fresh start mindset, whereas before/after ads are more effective for those with a strong fresh start mindset.
1 citations
,
July 2023 in “Nature communications” This study found that deleting the Mof gene in mouse skin leads to severe defects in skin cell self-renewal, differentiation, and hair follicle growth, indicating that MOF is crucial for mitochondrial and ciliary gene expression and essential for skin development.
March 2014 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” Mycophenolic acid may help hair grow by activating pathways important for hair growth.
4 citations
,
September 2020 in “Cell division” In this study, XMU-MP-1 unexpectedly reduced cell proliferation and altered cell cycle progression in a model human hair follicle, possibly due to off-target kinase inhibition.
September 2024 in “Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research” This study found that mitochondrial fusion regulator Opa1 is crucial for maintaining melanocyte stem cells during the hair follicle cycle in mice, with Opa1 deficiency leading to impaired SCF-KIT signaling, reduced melanocyte populations, and early hair graying.
13 citations
,
July 2019 in “Chemical papers/Chemické zvesti” This study developed and optimized a molecularly imprinted polymer-based electrochemical sensor, demonstrating its ability to detect minoxidil with high sensitivity and selectivity at concentrations as low as 0.3 nM, and successfully applied it for minoxidil measurement in various real sample matrices.
January 2010 in “대한미용학회지” This study observed that Polygoni mulitiflori Radix water extracts accelerated hair regrowth in mice by enhancing enzyme activities and increasing IGF-1 gene expression related to hair growth.
1 citations
,
February 2024 in “Gynecological Endocrinology” This study found that cyclic MPA is as effective as OCPs in resuming ovulation among women with PCOS, offering a viable alternative for those who cannot or choose not to use OCPs.

November 2023 in “Journal of Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery”
This study explored the molecular mechanisms by which Polygonum multiflorum may treat androgenic alopecia, suggesting it influences cell apoptosis and inflammation through specific pathways, with potential application value pending further testing.
November 2022 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that conditional deletion of Mof in mice resulted in severe defects in skin development, including compromised epidermal differentiation and hair growth, leading to perinatal lethality.
March 2026 in “Journal of Skin and Stem Cell” In this study, lower serum adiponectin levels and altered lipid profiles were observed in patients with periorbital melanosis, suggesting an association with metabolic syndrome.
