January 2013 in “Evidence-based Complementary and Alternative Medicine” In this study, ALR was found to enhance both the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, potentially through specific signaling pathways.
January 2023 in “Annals of Dermatology” This study found that alopecia areata patients with a CCHCR1 gene variant had higher recurrence rates and structural abnormalities in hair compared to those without the variant.
July 2026 in “Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology”
This study found that inhibiting AP-1 activity in mice can induce lineage transdifferentiation between squamous and sebaceous tumors, suggesting AP-1's role in maintaining tumor cell identity.
3 citations
,
April 2019 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This research suggests that innate lymphoid cells type 1 (ILC1) may contribute to the development of alopecia areata, alongside CD8+ T cells, by disrupting hair follicle immune privilege and promoting features of the disease.
