June 2022 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.

December 2024 in “Tissue and Cell” The study developed a method using quantitative and automatic cell imaging analysis to detect the nuclear translocation of the androgen receptor (AR) in immortalized dermal papilla cells (DPCs) tagged with fluorescent markers. Researchers observed AR movement from the cytoplasm to the nucleus after stimulation with dihydroxy testosterone (DHT) and testosterone, with translocation detected approximately 20 minutes post-exposure. The study analyzed 133 cells from clone 10 and 96 cells from clone 7, confirming that both DHT and testosterone induce AR nuclear translocation. This method, which overcomes previous manual limitations, could aid in screening inhibitors for AR-dependent conditions like androgenic alopecia.
