Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on an oriental herbal plant, PO, known for treating alopecia (hair loss) in Eastern Asia but lacking scientific evidence on its effects on hair growth.
- Researchers found that the leaf extract (POLE) significantly promotes the proliferation of human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs) and enhances cell viability, particularly when rich in quercitrin.
- POLE treatment led to decreased expression of cellular senescence markers and activated key growth factor receptors and signaling pathways, ultimately increasing growth factors like KGF, which suggests a potential for supporting terminal hair growth.
