Delivery Strategies of siRNA Therapeutics for Hair Loss Therapy

    Su-Eon Jin, Jong‐Hyuk Sung
    TLDR Effective delivery systems are crucial for siRNA hair loss treatments to work better.
    The document reviews the potential of small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapeutics for treating hair loss, focusing on the need for effective delivery systems to enhance their efficacy. It discusses various delivery strategies, including lipid-based nanocarriers, polymers, and microneedles, to improve the targeting and uptake of siRNA in hair follicles. These systems aim to overcome biological barriers and enhance the stability and effectiveness of siRNA, which can target specific genes involved in hair loss conditions like androgenetic alopecia. The review emphasizes the importance of optimizing siRNA delivery methods for clinical application, despite the current absence of siRNA interventions in clinical trials for hair loss.
