May 2020 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In this study, researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutation in the FERONIA gene of plants that prevents root hair formation at elevated temperatures, highlighting its role in maintaining root hair growth and response to plant hormones.
January 2021 in “Lecture notes in mechanical engineering” This study found that hair exposed to extreme temperatures, acidic conditions, or excessive coconut oil showed damage, with pH 5 to 7 being optimal for maintaining hair health.
March 2025 in “Scientific Reports” This study evaluated a menthol-based microemulsion for transdermal delivery of finasteride and silodosin, finding that it enhanced skin permeation and flux compared to aqueous solutions, suggesting a promising method for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia.
November 2024 in “Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology” In this pilot study, cryotherapy using a device that precisely controls cooling duration improved hair regrowth for patchy alopecia areata when applied for 20 seconds with two freeze-thaw cycles, similar to standard triamcinolone acetonide injections, but not when applied for 10 seconds.
July 2024 in “Chemical Engineering Journal” A new microneedle system with minoxidil nanoparticles effectively promotes hair regrowth with fewer side effects.
