May 2026 in “Journal of Medicinal Food” This study found that orally administered hydrolyzed keratin peptide promoted hair growth and enhanced cellular proliferation and antioxidant capacity in mice and human cell models, suggesting its potential as a functional food ingredient for hair health.
May 2026 in “Journal of Nanobiotechnology” This study found that using a palmitoylated peptide, Pal-MPAPO, delivered through hydrogel microneedles effectively promoted hair regrowth in mice with efficacy comparable to minoxidil, while requiring less frequent application.
January 2026 in “Therapeutics” This study found that SCUBE3 protein is upregulated in various cancers, promoting tumor growth and poor outcomes, while suppressing growth in renal cell carcinoma, and may serve as a diagnostic marker and potential therapeutic target for several diseases due to its secreted nature.
January 2026 in “International Journal of Peptide Research and Therapeutics” In this study, adults with mild-to-moderate hair damage taking GPVGPS Collagen® daily for 24 weeks showed significant improvements in hair luster, strength, thickness, and density compared to placebo, with no safety concerns reported.
December 2025 in “PubMed” This study suggests that low molecular weight fish collagen peptide may promote hair follicle growth and regeneration, improving overall hair quality in mouse models.
May 2025 in “Wound Repair and Regeneration” This study found that the peptide TSN6 increased epidermal thickness and promoted hair follicle formation in dermal–epidermal composites grafted onto nude mice, with TSN6-treated composites showing more hair follicles and retained grafts compared to control groups.
April 2025 in “Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy” This study found that QR678 Neo® significantly enhanced hair regrowth, density, and shaft diameter in males with advanced androgenetic alopecia undergoing hair transplant surgery, compared to a conventional method, making it a promising adjunct treatment option.
February 2025 in “JAAD International” Five monthly sessions of minoxidil-dutasteride-copper peptide tattooing significantly improve hair regrowth in men with androgenetic alopecia.
This study created a detailed atlas of endogenous peptides across 13 maize tissues during various developmental phases, revealing a complex regulatory network where peptide abundance doesn't always align with their source proteins, signaling unique roles in maize development.
November 2024 in “Journal of Functional Foods” In this study, APC collagen peptides were observed to enhance hair elasticity and gloss in human hair follicles by increasing amino acid and lipid component levels, suggesting their potential benefits for improving hair qualities.
August 2024 in “Majalah Obat Tradisional” This study found that microemulsions containing ethanol extract of cayenne pepper were effective in enhancing hair growth in rabbits, with the 0.2% concentration achieving the most significant results over a 30-day period, compared to a negative control.
July 2024 in “Skin Appendage Disorders” This study found that after 6 months of taking an oral supplement, patients with chronic telogen effluvium or androgenetic alopecia experienced a statistically significant increase in hair density and overall improved hair appearance compared to those taking a placebo, with the supplement being well tolerated.
