    Minjung Kim, Y.M. Kim, Jeong Hee Kim
    Studysummary In this study, a 5% Gymnema sylvestre leaf extract formulation applied to C3H mice showed significantly delayed hair regrowth by increasing TGF-β1 and TGF-β2 expression while reducing β-catenin levels, suggesting its potential as a natural hair growth inhibitor.
