November 2025 in “SKIN The Journal of Cutaneous Medicine” This study suggests that hair shedding, often reported with minoxidil use, is poorly defined in androgenetic alopecia treatment despite its prevalence on social media, highlighting a gap in the literature.
September 2025 in “Digital Commons - RU (Rockefeller University)” In this study, researchers found that mice lacking the transcription factor FOXC1 in their hair follicle stem cells had increased rounds of hair regeneration but experienced hair thinning due to impaired ability to maintain stem cell quiescence and adhesion.
This review highlights Neelibhringadi Hair Oil as a traditional Ayurvedic option for managing hair issues like dandruff and thinning, supported by its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, but emphasizes the need for modern clinical trials to confirm its effectiveness.

January 2025 in “Drug repurposing” This study reviewed 16 notable drug repurposing patent applications from 2025, highlighting potential new uses such as guanfacine for autonomic dysfunction and disulfiram for subarachnoid hemorrhage survival, though many disclosures lack peer-reviewed studies and no patents are granted.
May 2024 in “International Journal of Dermatology” This research highlights the lack of clinical evidence linking GLP-1 agonists, commonly used in treating type 2 diabetes and obesity, to hair loss, despite theoretical concerns regarding potential hair health impacts.
November 2023 in “Experimental Dermatology” In this study, researchers found that exosomes derived from dermal sheath cup cells (Exo DSCCs) improved proliferation, viability, and migration while reducing apoptosis in senescent dermal papilla cells, also enhancing hair follicle reconstruction and suggesting a potential strategy for combating senile alopecia.
In this case report, a patient's atypical neuropsychiatric and dermatological symptoms were crucial for diagnosing systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the disease's clinical heterogeneity and the importance of early detection to prevent organ damage.
September 2023 in “British Journal of Dermatology” In this study, researchers found that patients with severe alopecia areata show varied regrowth timelines with baricitinib, and those with the most severe cases may still experience delayed but eventual improvement.
August 2023 in “Journal of inflammation research” This case report observed alopecia universalis, a complete hair loss condition, in a patient during a clinical trial with the angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril/alisartan, indicating that ARNI therapy might be associated with such cutaneous reactions.
July 2023 in “IntechOpen eBooks” This review highlights that alopecia areata, a common type of hair loss, currently lacks preventive or curative treatments, and traditional therapies such as minoxidil and corticosteroids offer inconsistent results, necessitating patient-consensual treatment planning.
June 2023 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” This review discusses Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome, its symptomatology, and the progress in developing treatment strategies, emphasizing that while a cure remains elusive, advances in understanding the disease's molecular mechanisms show promise for future approaches.
June 2023 in “Frontiers in Medicine” This study identified core genes and pathways involved in androgenetic alopecia, finding that genes related to hair follicle development are down-regulated, while those linked to immune responses are up-regulated, highlighting potential therapeutic targets.
April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that local PGE2 injection may prevent radiotherapy-induced hair loss by protecting hair follicle cells and promoting hair follicle self-repair.
