January 2023 in “Nutrients” This study found that Hordenine promotes hair regrowth and enhances dermal-papilla cell activity in mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, suggesting potential for treating alopecia.
July 2023 in “Current Issues in Molecular Biology” This study found that escin acts as a natural agonist of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in cultured human dermal papilla cells by promoting the degradation of GSK-3β, highlighting its potential therapeutic use for conditions like androgenetic alopecia and vitiligo.
In this study, researchers used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to edit the FGF5 gene in Dorper sheep, observing increased density and finer wool, along with changes in cortisol levels and antioxidant enzyme activity linked to hair follicle development.

May 2024 in “Animal Biotechnology” In cashmere goats, this study found that reducing miR-361-5p levels activates secondary hair follicle stem cells by upregulating the FOXM1 gene, which in turn stimulates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, crucial for cashmere fiber morphogenesis.
