    TLDR The document discusses how traditional Chinese medicine extracts may affect hair growth in animals but lacks detailed results.
    The document provided an overview of the effects of various extracts from traditional Chinese medicine on the hair follicles of different animal species. It aimed to clarify the mechanisms by which these traditional Chinese medicine extracts influence hair follicle development. However, the summary does not include specific details such as the number of animals studied, the types of extracts used, or the outcomes observed. Therefore, while the document appears to discuss the regulatory effects of traditional Chinese medicine on hair follicle development across species, the lack of detailed findings in the summary prevents a comprehensive understanding of the study's conclusions.

      in Research/Science  14 upvotes 1 year ago
      He Shou Wu (Fo Ti) extract was found to prolong the hair growth phase, inhibit 5-alpha-reductase (like finasteride), reduce androgen receptors, and increase growth factors, potentially outperforming minoxidil in recovering hair follicle size after DHT exposure. Two compounds, emodin and TSG, are identified as responsible for these effects and warrant further investigation.
