May 2023 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” In this study, researchers observed that phospholipid-calcium carbonate hybrid nanoparticles effectively delivered Tofacitinib citrate topically, which significantly inhibited hair follicle apoptosis and promoted hair growth in a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, compared to a traditional Tofacitinib solution.
January 2026 in “Research” This review discusses advanced biomedical technologies, such as nanotechnology and stem cell-based approaches, for treating androgenetic alopecia, detailing their benefits, current applications, and challenges, without reporting new experimental results.
December 2025 in “Pharmaceutics” This review highlights the potential of drug-loaded extracellular vesicles as a promising drug delivery platform but notes that clinical translation faces challenges due to variability in methods and the need for standardization and safety evaluation.
April 2025 in “Clinical and Translational Discovery” In this study, ketoconazole-loaded transferosomes were developed and demonstrated improved hair growth compared to a commercially available ketoconazole product, with the formulation showing enhanced drug penetration and minimal skin irritation in vivo.
