January 2006 in “Skin Pharmacology and Physiology” This study found that finasteride (1 mg/day) appeared to reverse the shortening of the hair cycle in androgen sensitive sites but did not convert miniaturized hair into terminal hair.
January 2026 in “OSF Preprints (OSF Preprints)” In this study, researchers presented a novel therapeutic approach for androgenetic alopecia combining AR-PROTAC degradation with regenerative strategies and evaluated the potential of GT20029 as a topical treatment, proposing a three-phase protocol and future research hypotheses.

April 2021 in “Frontiers in Immunology” This study presents the first documented case of dramatic hair regrowth in a systemic lupus erythematosus patient with refractory alopecia following tofacitinib therapy, suggesting a potential new application for JAK inhibitors in difficult-to-treat cutaneous SLE manifestations.

,
September 2024 in “iScience” In a study on mice, researchers found that exposure to artificial light environments causing circadian misalignment impaired hair growth by reducing the hair growth rate during the anagen phase, suggesting these light conditions as a potential risk factor for hair loss.

May 1998 in “Journal of Dermatological Science” This study suggests that skin sections from 4-week-old C3H mice could serve as an in vitro model for human androgenic alopecia, as minoxidil partially reverses suppressed hair follicle elongation.
