November 2024 in “Applied Sciences” The study investigates the use of wild strawberry waste as a sustainable source for cosmetic ingredients, focusing on a supercritical CO2 extract rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids. This extract shows potential for treating androgenic-related conditions like acne and androgenic alopecia by inhibiting 5α-reductase type 1 expression in skin fibroblasts. Although less effective than saw palmetto, the extract's eco-friendly production process, confirmed by a life cycle assessment, highlights its sustainability. The research underscores the feasibility of transforming agri-food waste into valuable cosmetic ingredients, promoting sustainability in the cosmetic industry. Further research is needed to fully understand the extract's composition and effects.

November 2024 in “European Journal of Pharmacology” This study demonstrates that MitoQ can alleviate symptoms of androgenetic alopecia (AGA) by targeting mitochondrial dysfunction and enhancing CYP19A1 expression, which regulates the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway. In a mouse model of DHT-induced hair loss, MitoQ was shown to reverse hair growth reduction and mitigate apoptosis caused by decreased CYP19A1 expression. Network pharmacology identified 75 drug targets and 367 disease targets, highlighting MitoQ's potential in hormonal response and transcriptional regulation pathways. These findings suggest that MitoQ could be a promising therapeutic intervention for AGA, with CYP19A1 as a valuable target.
