April 2010 in “Endocrinology” This review discusses the mechanisms of androgenic alopecia and reports no new results; the development of a mouse model for further study is described.
In this preclinical study, PA-011 derived from Periplaneta americana showed significant hair regrowth effects in androgenetic alopecia mouse models by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress, activating hair follicle stem cell proliferation, and normalizing skin microbiota, suggesting promise as an AGA treatment.
