February 1996 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The study investigated the role of polyamines in hair follicle function and fiber composition in sheep. It found that inhibiting ornithine decarboxylase with alpha difluoromethylornithine altered fiber characteristics but did not inhibit wool follicle growth in culture. Conversely, inhibiting S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase with methylglyoxal (bis)guanylhydrazone completely inhibited fiber growth, which could be reversed by adding spermidine, but not spermine. The study concluded that polyamines, particularly spermidine, were crucial for hair growth, as evidenced by the ability of spermidine to partially counteract growth depression in methionine-deficient conditions.

October 2009 in “Xenobiotica” The study investigated the potential oxidative metabolism of nine aromatic amine compounds used in hair dyes using human liver microsomes and hepatocytes. Toluene-2,5-diamine (TDA), p-aminophenol, m-aminophenol, p-methylaminophenol, N,N′-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine, and 1-hydroxyethyl-4,5-diaminopyrazole showed no evidence of oxidative metabolism. While oxidized metabolites of 4-amino-2-hydroxytoluene (AHT), 2-methyl-5-hydroxyethylaminophenol (MHEAP), and phenyl methyl pyrazolone (PMP) were detected, they did not exhibit NADPH-dependent covalent binding, indicating they were not reactive. Further studies in human hepatocytes revealed that all compounds underwent conjugation without forming oxidative metabolites. The findings suggested that the tested hair dye ingredients did not metabolize into potentially reactive oxidized metabolites in the liver.
