August 2018 in “Dermatologic Surgery” This study found that 1,550-nm Er:Glass fractional laser treatment increased hair density and shaft diameter in patients with androgenetic alopecia, but did not up-regulate Wnt10A and IGF-1 mRNA expression.
July 2025 in “Frontiers in Pharmacology” This study highlights the potential of GPR30 and its selective agonists as promising therapeutic targets for treating hair loss disorders and conditions that respond to estrogen, emphasizing their role in modulating hair growth.
