Bimetallic Ru-Ir/Rh complexes for catalytic allyl alcohol reduction to propylene.

Bimetallic Ru-Ir/Rh complexes with the Ru-based metalloligand -(bpy)Ru(PPh) (RuP) serve as catalysts for the selective reduction of allyl alcohol to propylene, employing H gas or an electrochemical setup. Metal-metal bonded key π-allyl intermediates [(RuP)M(η-CH)] (M = Ir, Rh) are identified, advancing the understanding of the catalytic processes.

18-β-Glycyrrhetinic Acid Promotes Hair Growth by Stimulating the Proliferation of Dermal Papilla Cells and Outer Root Sheath Cells, and Extends the Anagen Phase by Inhibiting 5α-Reductase.

18-β-Glycyrrhetinic acid, a major component of licorice, stimulated the proliferation of both dermal papilla cells and outer root sheath cells isolated from human hair follicles. Thus, suggesting that this compound promotes hair growth. Furthermore, this compound inhibited the activity of testosterone 5α-reductase, an enzyme responsible for converting androgen to dihydroandrogen, with an IC of 137.

Ginsenosides in Panax ginseng Extract Promote Anagen Transition by Suppressing BMP4 Expression and Promote Human Hair Growth by Stimulating Follicle-Cell Proliferation.

Studies showing that Panax ginseng promotes hair growth have largely been conducted using mice; there are few reports on how P. ginseng affects human hair growth. In particular, little is known about its effect on the telogen to anagen transition.
