Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia in Mice: Induction by Cyclophosphamide, Inhibition by Cyclosporine A, and Modulation by Dexamethasone

research Chemotherapy-induced alopecia in mice. Induction by cyclophosphamide, inhibition by cyclosporine A, and modulation by dexamethasone.

36 citations , April 1994 in “PubMed”

This study introduces a mouse model of cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia, which effectively replicates human chemotherapy-induced hair loss and can be pharmacologically manipulated to study hair regrowth patterns.

Treatment with ImuVert and N-Acetylcysteine Protects Rats from Cyclophosphamide and Cytarabine-Induced Alopecia

research Treatment with ImuVert/JV-Acetylcysteine Protects Rats from Cyclophosphamide/ Cytarabine-Induced Alopecia

26 citations , January 1992 in “Cancer investigation”

This study found that N-acetylcysteine effectively prevented cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia in rats, and ImuVert plus N-acetylcysteine prevented alopecia from a cyclophosphamide-cytarabine combination.

research S100A8 induces cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia via NCF2/NOX2-mediated ferroptosis

2 citations , February 2025 in “Free Radical Biology and Medicine”

In a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, this study found that inhibiting the protein S100A8 with paquinimod alleviated hair loss and reduced oxidative stress and ferroptosis, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy for managing this side effect in chemotherapy patients.

Effect of N-Acetylcysteine on Hair Follicle Changes in Mouse Model of Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia: Histological and Biochemical Study

research Effect of N-acetylcysteine on hair follicle changes in mouse model of cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia: histological and biochemical study

April 2024 in “Histochemistry and cell biology”

In this study, NAC was observed to counteract the negative effects of cyclophosphamide on hair follicles in mice, preserving both biochemical parameters and hair structure, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic option for chemotherapy-induced hair loss.

Temporary Cell Cycle Arrest by ALRN-6924: A Novel P53-Targeting Strategy to Protect Human Scalp Hair Follicles Against Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia

research 1409 Temporary cell cycle arrest by ALRN-6924: A novel, p53-targeting strategy to protect human scalp hair follicles against cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia

April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This study found that ALRN-6924 effectively protected human hair follicles from cyclophosphamide-induced damage in an ex vivo setting, suggesting it may reduce both acute and permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

community can someone help me identify these pls

in Treatment 9 months ago

The user is experiencing diffuse thinning and inflammation despite using 2.5mg dutasteride daily, ciclopirox, and ketoconazole shampoos. They are considering treatments like hydroxychloroquine and JAK inhibitors due to suspected scarring alopecia and have faced challenges in obtaining a scalp biopsy.

community OND-1 "Cyclosporine A” New hair loss treatment

in Research/Science 28 upvotes 5 months ago

Orient Bio is developing a PLGA formulated version of Cyclosporine A to stimulate hair growth without its immunosuppressant effects. Users discuss various treatments like Clascoterone, PP405, minoxidil, and tacrolimus, expressing hope for new developments and sharing personal experiences with these treatments.

community Dermatology expert panel on permanent chemotherapy induced alopecia (PCIA)

2 upvotes 11 months ago

Chemotherapy can cause permanent hair loss similar to androgenetic alopecia. Oral minoxidil and scalp cooling are suggested treatments.

community Anti androgen shed all over scalp

3 upvotes 2 years ago

The user is experiencing intense hair shedding all over the scalp after applying pyrilutamide to the hairline and taking oral castor oil. They are also using topical finasteride and latanoprost, but are unsure which treatment is causing the shedding.

community Second shed and more abnormalities

in Treatment 1 upvotes 2 years ago

The user has been using oral finasteride for 15 months and oral minoxidil for 6 months, and developed alopecia areata, for which a dermatologist prescribed calcipotriol/betamethasone. The treatment is helping, but the user is experiencing another shedding phase and is concerned about the effects of the steroid cream and the cause of hair loss.

learn Alopecia Areata

autoimmune disorder causing patchy hair loss

learn Tofacitinib

a JAK inhibitor for alopecia areata and other autoimmune conditions

What is tofacitinib, and why is it discussed in relation to autoimmune-related hair loss such as alopecia areata? Tofacitinib is a prescription JAK inhibitor approved for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and ulcerative colitis — not for alopecia areata. It is discussed for hair loss because a 2014 case report and a 2016 open-label trial reported regrowth in severe alopecia areata, but that use is off-label, the regrowth relapsed after stopping, and the drug carries an FDA boxed warning.

learn Pyrilutamide

What is pyrilutamide, and how does it help with androgenic alopecia or hair loss caused by DHT? Pyrilutamide (KX-826) is an investigational topical antiandrogen designed to block DHT at the androgen receptor in the scalp rather than lower DHT in the blood. Its sponsor has announced positive Phase III top-line results in China, but none of the data are peer-reviewed and it is not approved as a medicine anywhere.
Are there any common side effects or scalp reactions to watch for when applying pyrilutamide? Common side effects may include scalp irritation, redness, or itching.

learn Baricitinib

JAK inhibitor that reduces inflammation and immune attacks on hair follicles, leading to potential hair regrowth, especially in alopecia areata cases

learn Baicapil

Struggling with patchy hair loss like alopecia areata? Baicapil might help by reducing inflammation and reactivating growth. There is no published trial of Baicapil in alopecia areata. The anti-inflammatory and hair-density claims come from the ingredient's manufacturer and from laboratory work on its plant extracts, in people with androgenetic-type hair loss rather than autoimmune patchy hair loss.

learn Bicalutamide

Can bicalutamide stop DHT from shrinking your hair follicles? Bicalutamide blocks androgens at the receptor rather than lowering DHT, and some dermatologists prescribe it off-label for women with pattern hair loss. The published evidence is retrospective case series and one small pilot study, with no randomized trial; it is a prescription drug that requires liver monitoring and is contraindicated in pregnancy.

learn Ketoconazole

antifungal with some anti-androgenic benefits, often used as a shampoo
