November 2025 in “BMC Genomics” This study found that the systemic wrinkled skin phenotype in Xiang pigs involves gene expression changes and genetic variations associated with oxidative stress and extracellular matrix components, resembling features seen in Shar-Pei dogs.
August 2026 in “Adolescencia e Saude” This narrative review found a strong association between oxidative stress and the severity of alopecia areata, noting that increased oxidant and reduced antioxidant biomarkers correlate with higher disease severity scores, and emphasizes the need for larger prospective studies for clinical validation.
December 2023 in “Alzheimer's & dementia” In this rodent study, researchers found that the drug finasteride may reduce anxiety and depression-like behaviors in a model of aging, despite inducing metabolic disturbances and depressive-like behaviors in young rats, suggesting potential considerations for its use in elderly populations.
