December 2022 in “Bioactive Materials” Researchers developed a microneedle patch (ZCQ/MN) containing quercetin, zinc, and copper to treat androgenic alopecia (AGA). The patch dissolves in the skin, releasing these active ingredients to promote hair follicle regeneration by inhibiting dihydrotestosterone, reducing inflammation, promoting angiogenesis, and activating hair follicle stem cells. Tested on 8-week-old C57BL/6 mice (n=6 per group), the ZCQ/MN group showed significant hair regrowth, achieving 95.33% hair coverage by day 14. In vitro experiments on human hair follicle dermal papilla cells confirmed the combination's efficacy in enhancing cell proliferation and protection against dihydrotestosterone-induced injury. The study concludes that ZCQ/MN is a promising, biocompatible treatment for AGA, offering better efficacy than current treatments like minoxidil.
