August 2021 in “Pharmaceutics” This study explored the use of dexamethasone-loaded polymer hybrid nanoparticles in a xanthan gum hydrogel for treating alopecia areata, finding that freeze drying with sucrose influenced particle size, release, and permeation, but had no impact on cytotoxicity or anti-inflammatory efficacy in human keratinocytes.
February 2016 in “DOAJ (DOAJ: Directory of Open Access Journals)” This study found that freeze-dried finasteride nanoparticles significantly improved the dissolution rate and pharmacokinetic parameters compared to pure drug formulations, suggesting enhanced stability and solubility for poorly water-soluble drugs.
In this study, researchers developed a novel bio-patch from decellularized freeze-dried tumor tissues and hair melanin nanoparticles, which demonstrated enhanced wound healing in vivo by reducing oxidative stress, suppressing inflammation, and promoting angiogenesis.
