    Studysummary In testosterone-induced AGA mouse models, this study found that a dual-drug-loaded cationic nanoemulsion of minoxidil and finasteride enhanced follicle-associated retention, supporting hair regeneration while reducing systemic absorption and showing good skin compatibility, indicating a promising approach for androgenetic alopecia treatment.
