May 2007 in “International Journal of Pharmaceutics” The study concluded that poly(propylene carbonate maleate) microspheres effectively encapsulated finasteride, achieving a biphasic release with prolonged drug release over 5-6 weeks in vitro.
January 2026 in “RSC Advances” The hydrogel helps heal wounds without scars by releasing two drugs gradually.
May 2026 in “European Cells and Materials” In this study, researchers developed a novel delivery system using hyaluronic acid gels to encapsulate Huperzine A for Alzheimer's treatment, achieving extended release over 20 days and significantly improving pathology and behavior in mice, including enhanced memory and reduced neuroinflammation.
July 2026 in “Journal of Drug Delivery and Therapeutics” This study evaluated Finasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers for topical use in treating androgenetic alopecia and found that these carriers offer sustained drug release and may reduce systemic side effects compared to oral administration.
