May 2026 in “Scientific Reports” The study investigates the potential of stigmasterol (STR) as a treatment for androgenetic alopecia (AA) using computational methods. STR showed strong binding affinity with key genes involved in AA, particularly MAPK3, with a binding energy of -9.1 kcal/mol, surpassing that of finasteride. Molecular dynamics simulations confirmed the stability of the STR-MAPK3 complex. These findings suggest STR could regulate AA-related mechanisms, positioning it as a promising natural therapeutic agent. However, further empirical studies are needed to confirm its clinical application.
