Novel Synergistic Approach for Bioactive Macromolecules: Evaluating the Efficacy of Goat Placenta Extract in PEGylated Liposomes and Microspicules for Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss.

Chemotherapy-induced hair loss is a distressing side effect of cancer treatment, and medical interventions are often needed to address this problem. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the bioactivity of goat placenta (GP) extract on both normal and chemotherapy-induced hair cells and to develop PEGylated liposomes (PL) and microspicule (MS) formulations for promoting hair growth in patients with chemotherapy-induced hair loss. The bioactivities of GP extract on human follicle dermal papilla (HFDP) cells and cells damaged by chemotherapy were assessed.
