The researchers reported that a newly developed ionic liquid-based microemulsion significantly improved the local delivery of copper peptides in mice, enhancing hair growth-related factor activation while offering a safer, non-invasive alternative to existing treatments for hair loss.

This study reports that a new minoxidil and epigallocatechin gallate co-loaded ionic liquids system showed superior efficacy in promoting hair regrowth in a mouse model of androgenic alopecia by activating hair follicle stem cells and improving microenvironment conditions, compared to existing minoxidil products.

This study demonstrated that imidazole-based ionic liquids, particularly [Emim]DEP, effectively dissolved yak hair keratin, maintaining its structure better than other tested solvents, and also performed well on human hair and goat wool, with consistent performance even after five recycling cycles.

In this study, a taurine-based ionic liquid was developed to effectively penetrate the skin barrier and deliver antioxidants to hair follicles, reducing oxidative stress and promoting hair regrowth in an androgenic alopecia animal model.

This study reports the development of a fluorescent ionic liquid that shows high sensitivity and selectivity for detecting dextran sulfate sodium, with potential applications in clinical diagnostics and environmental monitoring.

In this study, researchers developed a new Supported Ionic Liquid Phase palladium catalyst that showed effectiveness in aminocarbonylation reactions for synthesizing pharmaceutical compounds like CX-546 and a precursor of Finasteride, though results were sensitive to substrate variations and prompted palladium leaching concerns.

This study reported that a novel ionic liquid delivery system combining ferulic acid and finasteride enhanced the solubility, skin permeation, and effectiveness in promoting hair regrowth in androgenetic alopecia mice, suggesting an improved topical treatment approach.

This study found that a novel choline-based valproic acid ionic liquid significantly enhances transdermal penetration and promotes hair regrowth without causing irritation or toxicity, offering a promising treatment option for alopecia.
