This review discusses recent advancements in developing delivery systems for small interfering RNA (siRNA) to treat skin conditions, highlighting innovations like liposomes, dendrimers, cell-penetrating peptides, and spherical nucleic acid nanoparticles designed to overcome challenges of skin permeability and degradation.

This study found that intradermal injection of cholesterol-modified siRNA targeting FGF5 or FGF18, or topical application of FGF18-targeted siRNA, effectively influenced hair follicle cycles in mice, suggesting potential benefits for alopecia management.

In this review, researchers introduced clinically tunable siRNA delivery systems for hair loss treatment, discussing design principles and analyzing relevant clinical trials to propose a framework for optimizing siRNA delivery in a clinical context.

This study found that DKK1-targeting siRNA, which may activate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, showed hair growth results in mice similar to those treated with the FDA-approved minoxidil, suggesting potential as an androgenetic alopecia therapy.

This study evaluated a chemically modified siRNA, AR-27 E-Chol, which effectively promoted hair regrowth and reduced androgen receptor gene expression in a DHT-induced mouse model of androgenetic alopecia, suggesting its potential as a novel therapeutic candidate.
