In this study, collagen type I, skin fibroblasts, and macrophages did not show remarkable changes in androgenic alopecia patients' scalp tissues after treatment with 1550 nm fractional Er:Glass laser, despite improved hair regrowth.
This study found that Avicennia marina extract significantly increased hair growth in androgenic alopecia patients, suggesting its potential effectiveness by inhibiting 5 alpha-reductase and regulating relevant growth factors.
This study found that 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone was the most effective inhibitor of steroid 5α-reductase, showing stronger inhibition than avicequinone C in HaCaT cell assays.
This study reported that chemically modified cellulose from pineapple waste effectively created nanoparticles for minoxidil delivery with high encapsulation efficiency and prolonged release, potentially useful for androgenic alopecia treatment.
This study found that the methanolic heartwood extract of Avicennia marina significantly inhibited the enzyme 5 alpha-reductase type 1 in a cell-based assay, suggesting potential anti-androgenic effects for treating androgenic alopecia.
