July 2004 in “American Journal of Pathology” This study suggests that nerve growth factor plays a crucial role in the stress-induced termination of hair growth in mice, and its antagonism might offer a therapeutic approach to mitigate stress-related hair loss.
November 2025 in “Preprints.org” In a rodent study, researchers found that oral phenytoin and spironolactone significantly mitigated 5-fluorouracil-induced hair loss and oxidative stress, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for chemotherapy-induced alopecia and enhanced recovery.
July 2022 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study suggests that particulate matter can induce inflammation in human outer root sheath cells, potentially affecting hair growth, through oxidative stress-dependent MAPK and JAK-STAT signaling pathways.
