November 2024 in “Research Square (Research Square)” Moracin M, a compound from the Moraceae family, has been shown to significantly enhance hair growth by promoting cell proliferation and angiogenesis in human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs). The study found that Moracin M activates the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, leading to increased levels of growth factors such as VEGF, FGF2, KGF, HGF, and MYC, similar to the effects of minoxidil. It also enhances cell migration in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) without cytotoxicity at concentrations up to 50 µM. Additionally, Moracin M increases protein and mRNA levels of VEGF, FGF2, and KGF under inflammatory conditions and stimulates MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression, contributing to wound healing. These results suggest that Moracin M could be a promising alternative to current hair growth treatments.
February 2018 in “Chinese Journal of Dermatology” The study investigated the effects of diammonium glycyrrhizinate on human hair follicles cultured in vitro, focusing on the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. It was found that a concentration of 0.01 μmol/L significantly promoted hair follicle growth compared to the control. This concentration also increased the expression of β-catenin, p-GSK3β, and Lef1 in hair matrix cells, suggesting enhanced proliferative activity and delayed transition to the catagen phase. These effects were likely linked to the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
A natural compound called VB-1 can help promote hair growth by boosting a specific cell signal in human skin cells.
