Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed a new nanoparticle formulation containing 5% minoxidil (MXD) using a bead mill method, building on previous findings that 1% MXD nanoparticles improved hair growth in mice.
- The study compared the hair-growth effects of the new MXD-NPs with a commercially available minoxidil solution, finding that MXD-NPs led to significantly better hair growth results and higher levels of MXD in the hair bulge.
- Activation of hair follicle epithelial stem cells (HFSC) was observed in the mice treated with MXD-NPs, suggesting that these nanoparticles enhance hair growth by improving drug delivery to hair follicles.
