platycladus orientalis

In this animal study, researchers found that cedrol, a constituent from Platycladus orientalis, significantly promoted hair growth in a dose-dependent manner in female C57BL/6 mice, surpassing results from blank control and 2% minoxidil groups over 21 days.

This study successfully developed a method to measure four flavonoids from Platycladus orientalis leaves in rat plasma, which was used in a pharmacokinetic study on healthy rats.

This study found that supplementing raccoon dogs' diets with 0.25 g/kg Platycladus orientalis leaf extract improved growth performance and altered intestinal microbiota, but higher doses may have adverse effects.

Cedrol promotes hair growth better than baricitinib by regulating immune cells.

In this study, yeast fermentation of Platycladus orientalis leaves was shown to enhance hair growth-promoting properties by affecting cell cycle phases in human dermal papilla cells, increasing growth factor VEGF, reducing inflammatory factor TGF-β1, and altering the expression of Wnt/β-catenin pathway-related genes.

In a mouse study, Fr2 from Platycladus orientalis L. significantly enhanced hair growth, suggesting its potential as a natural therapeutic agent for hair regeneration.

In this experimental study, the researchers observed that Platycladus orientalis leaf extract promoted hair growth by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation and increasing growth factor expression, particularly through ACK1 activation and modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways in cultured human cells and a 12-week topical application.

This study evaluated various herbal blends of powdered leaves, including Henna and Indigo, for their coloring and sensitivity reactions, finding Henna and Indigo to be effective natural colorants for achieving a reddish-brown hair color with better retention than marketed herbal hair dyes.

This study found that Platycladus orientalis flavonoids may reduce oxidative damage and slow melanin degradation in AGA-affected hair, improving its quality.

This study found that lambertianic acid from Platycladus orientalis leaves may protect against dexamethasone-induced skeletal muscle atrophy by reducing atrophy-related proteins without affecting cell viability.

This study examined the extracts and essential oil from Platycladus orientalis leaves and found that the ethanol extract had the highest antioxidant activity, while the essential oil was more effective as an antibacterial agent, particularly against Micrococcus luteus and Staphylococcus aureus.

This study found that combining sorafenib with Platycladus orientalis leaf extract effectively suppressed cervical cancer cell growth by increasing tumor suppressor gene expression and reducing anti-apoptotic gene expression, suggesting a potential rationale for further clinical trials.

This study suggests that P. orientalis leaf-derived EVs could offer anxiolytic, antidepressant, and sleep-inducing benefits by affecting neurotransmitter levels and reducing inflammation, particularly when administered intranasally.

This review compiles data on Platycladus orientalis leaves, noting their diverse pharmacological activities and advocating for more research to clarify their traditional blood-cooling and hematostatic uses.

This review discusses the phytoconstituents and biological properties of T. orientalis and T. occidentalis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the topical application of a mixture of Platycladus orientalis leaf extract and α-terpineol promoted hair growth in mice by inducing early anagen transition and increasing growth factor expressions.

In this study, researchers developed a fast-dissolving microneedle patch delivering minoxidil nanoparticles and plant-derived vesicles, which improved hair regrowth and follicle health in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation without causing skin irritation or systemic toxicity.

This study reported that Cacumen Platycladi extract significantly reduced hair loss and increased hair density in a 12-week clinical trial, suggesting it may be a safe and effective natural treatment.
