In this study, secretomes from hypoxic mesenchymal stem cells were found to increase PDGF and reduce IL-1β gene expression in rats, potentially offering an effective topical treatment for alopecia caused by long-term fluconazole use.

In this study, researchers observed that a topical gel containing 20% hypoxia mesenchymal stem cell secretome significantly reduced IL-15 and IFN-γ mRNA expression and baldness by 60% in male Wistar rats with fluconazole-related alopecia.

This article discusses a report on reversible alopecia associated with fluconazole therapy and mentions other possible causes of hair loss but presents no new findings.

This study found that fluconazole was associated with telogen effluvium in both a rat model and human patients, although retinoic acid levels were not identified as a causal factor.

This study found that in a fluconazole-induced alopecia-like rat model, a 14-day treatment with hypoxia-induced mesenchymal stem cell exosomes significantly increased TGF-β and PDGF levels, which may improve hair growth and suggests a potential therapeutic strategy for alopecia and other inflammation-related skin disorders.
