July 2020 in “American journal of human genetics” This study identified mutations in the SREBF1 gene that impair SREBP1 function, potentially contributing to IFAP syndrome by affecting skin, hair, and eye development.
November 2025 in “Frontiers in Pharmacology” In this study, XZYFD, a Traditional Chinese Medicine formulation, was found to improve androgenetic alopecia in a testosterone-induced mouse model by promoting hair regrowth, restoring follicular morphology, and modulating androgen metabolism, MAPK signaling, and lipid metabolism pathways, suggesting potential benefits for patients with metabolic dysfunction.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this study, bovine milk-derived oligosaccharides were found to increase sebocyte proliferation, lipid content, and inflammatory mediator synthesis through the mTORC1 pathway, potentially contributing to milk-based inflammation in sebocytes.
