research Skin and hair on-a-chip: in vitro skin models versus ex vivo tissue maintenance with dynamic perfusion

208 citations , January 2013 in “Lab on a Chip”

The researchers described a chip-based bioreactor platform for dynamic perfusion, which may enhance in vitro skin models by introducing mechanical shear stress and extending culture periods.

research Angora Mouse Mutation: Altered Hair Cycle, Follicular Dystrophy, Phenotypic Maintenance of Skin Grafts, and Changes in Keratin Expression

276 upvotes 6 months ago

GT20029 is a new hair loss treatment in Phase 3 trials in China, using PROTAC technology to target androgen receptors, potentially with fewer side effects than finasteride and minoxidil. VDPHL01, a second-generation minoxidil, is also mentioned as potentially more effective.

learn oleic acid

Is there a difference between getting Oleic Acid from oils (like olive oil) versus hair products? Oils on the hair act mainly on the hair shaft and skin surface; eating olive oil is linked with heart health in cohort studies. Neither route has been shown to affect hair growth.
How does Oleic Acid support hair follicle strength and growth? Lab and animal studies suggest oleic acid may help the scalp barrier and hair shaft. No human trial shows that it strengthens follicles or slows hair loss.

learn Cetirizine

How does cetirizine reduce inflammation linked to hair loss? Cetirizine is proposed to lower prostaglandin D2 and raise prostaglandin E2 around hair follicles; three small trials of a compounded 1% topical report modest increases in hair density and shaft thickness, with minoxidil doing better head-to-head. Topical cetirizine is off-label and unapproved for hair loss, and the evidence is too thin to call it effective or safe.
