August 2025 in “Frontiers in Pharmacology” In this study, PA-011, a traditional Chinese medicine extract, was shown to improve hair growth in alopecia areata model mice by reducing skin inflammation and altering skin microbiota, indicating its potential therapeutic role for this condition.
August 2025 in “OPAL (Open@LaTrobe) (La Trobe University)” In this study, PA-011 extract was reported to promote hair growth and alleviate alopecia areata symptoms in mice by reducing skin inflammation and modulating skin microbiota.
August 2025 in “Current Issues in Molecular Biology” This study demonstrated that Periplaneta americana extract significantly promoted hair regeneration in depilated mice by enhancing superoxide dismutase activity, upregulating vascular endothelial growth factor, modulating the FOXO/PI3K/AKT pathway, and restoring skin microbiome balance, suggesting its potential as a novel therapeutic candidate for alopecia.
In this preclinical study, PA-011 derived from Periplaneta americana showed significant hair regrowth effects in androgenetic alopecia mouse models by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress, activating hair follicle stem cell proliferation, and normalizing skin microbiota, suggesting promise as an AGA treatment.
