research Apremilast and tofacitinib exert differential effects in the humanized mouse model of alopecia areata
Tofacitinib was more effective than apremilast in treating hair loss in a mouse model of alopecia areata.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors, Chemical and Clinical Models
Researchers developed a model to predict how well certain compounds can block an enzyme related to hair loss and prostate issues, suggesting a 50 mg dose of finasteride might be effective based on lab and body data.
research LB1777 A novel ex vivo model of human hair follicle immune privilege collapse reveals the potential of farudodstat, a DHODH inhibitor, as a therapeutic for alopecia areata treatment
This study explores the potential of farudodstat, a DHODH inhibitor, as a treatment for alopecia areata (AA), an inflammatory disorder characterized by immune privilege (IP) collapse and hair loss. Using an innovative ex vivo model with human hair follicles (HFs), researchers stimulated T-cell activation to mimic AA conditions. The study found that farudodstat significantly reduced T-cell proliferation and MHC protein expression, indicating a protective effect against IP collapse without promoting catagen induction or affecting keratinocyte proliferation. These findings suggest that farudodstat could be a promising therapeutic option for AA by preventing IP collapse.
research Cell proliferation during fibre growth initiation in ferret hair follicles
Ferret hair growth starts between 0 and 4 days after melatonin treatment, with cell growth peaking in the hair germ and declining as the hair matures.
