In this study, researchers found that a propylene glycol-free and alcohol-reduced topical foam containing minoxidil and finasteride remained chemically, physically, and microbially stable for 180 days when stored properly at room temperature in light-resistant containers.
research CXCL12 Neutralizing Antibody Promotes Hair Growth in Androgenic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
This study found that subcutaneous injection of a CXCL12 neutralizing antibody significantly promoted hair growth in androgenic alopecia and inhibited hair loss in alopecia areata in mouse models, suggesting its potential as a promising treatment for hair loss.
research Single-cell transcriptomics reveals lineage trajectory of human scalp hair follicle and informs mechanisms of hair graying
This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to create a detailed atlas of human scalp hair follicles and found that early-stage hair graying involves matrix hair progenitor depletion linked to P53 pathway activation.
research The Extract of Periplaneta americana (L.) Promotes Hair Regrowth in Mice with Alopecia by Regulating the FOXO/PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway and Skin Microbiota
This study demonstrated that Periplaneta americana extract significantly promoted hair regeneration in depilated mice by enhancing superoxide dismutase activity, upregulating vascular endothelial growth factor, modulating the FOXO/PI3K/AKT pathway, and restoring skin microbiome balance, suggesting its potential as a novel therapeutic candidate for alopecia.
research A randomized, double-blind controlled clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of minoxidil topical 2% nanosuspension with aqueous base in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia areata
This study evaluated a new aqueous-based nanosuspension of minoxidil for treating androgenetic alopecia and reported it was as effective as the commercial product but had better safety and tolerability, potentially improving patient compliance.
research In vivo evaluation of insect wax for hair growth potential
This study found that insect wax can significantly promote hair growth in mice in a way that is comparable to minoxidil, likely due to the upregulation of VEGF expression.
