January 2020 in “Indian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences” The review discussed the use of rodent models to study hair loss and test traditional medicinal plants for promoting hair growth. It highlighted the limited number of FDA-approved treatments for hair loss, such as minoxidil and finasteride, and the potential of natural products to serve as leads for new therapies. The review emphasized the importance of understanding the mechanisms of action of various herbs and suggested that developing synthetic small molecules from herbal compounds could streamline the approval process. The paper also summarized the efficacy of different herbal preparations in promoting hair growth in rodent models and discussed the molecular pathways involved in hair growth modulation.
