Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the structure-activity relationship of calanthoside and its effects on HFDPC proliferation.
  • Analyzed the effects of two glucoside moieties on hair follicle dermal papilla cells (HFDPC).
  • Conducted in vitro tests to assess proliferation rates after treatment with calanthoside.
  • Calanthoside significantly increased HFDPC proliferation compared to controls, with a notable enhancement observed with specific glucoside structures.

Abstract

The development of new and effective drugs for treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA) remains challenging. Minoxidil and finasteride, two drugs currently used to treat AGA, were originally developed for treating hypertension...
