    TLDR Fisetin in fruits and vegetables helps hair growth in mice.
    The study suggests that fisetin, a natural compound found in fruits and vegetables, can promote hair growth in mice by inducing the secretion of exosomes that activate proteins and cells in hair follicles, leading to their proliferation. Exosomes derived from keratinocytes treated with fisetin could be a promising delivery method for hair growth-promoting agents.
