July 2024 in “Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology” This study investigated autophagy activator ICP5249 and found it promotes hair growth by enhancing cell proliferation and autophagy-related markers in human dermal papilla cells and hair follicles, with AMPKα playing a regulatory role, suggesting its potential as a hair growth ingredient.
December 2022 in “KSBB Journal” This study suggests that autophagy is essential for regulating TLR3-mediated regenerative processes in human keratinocytes.
January 2024 in “Figshare” Activating autophagy in hair follicle stem cells can lead to hair growth and repair by affecting sugar metabolism.
January 2024 in “Burns and trauma” In a rat scalp expansion model, this study found that activating autophagy with rapamycin enhanced skin regeneration during tissue expansion by increasing expanded skin area, epidermis and dermis thicknesses, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and other regenerative factors, whereas blocking autophagy reversed these effects.
