Protective effect of Korean Red Ginseng against chemotherapeutic drug-induced premature catagen development assessed with human hair follicle organ culture model

Abstract: BackgroundChemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) is one of the most distressing side effects for patients undergoing chemotherapy. This study evaluated the protective effect of Korean Red Ginseng (KRG) on CIA in a well-established in vitro human hair follicle organ culture model as it occurs in vivo.MethodsWe examined whether KRG can prevent premature hair follicle dystrophy in a human hair follicle organ culture model during treatment with a key cyclophosphamide metabolite, 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide (4-HC).R… Show more

“…In chemotherapy-induced alopecia, KRG protects against premature catagen development through modulation of p53 and Bax/Bcl2 expression. Finally, ginseng exerts mitogenic and antiapoptotic effects in outer root sheath keratinocytes [62,63]. Malus pumila Mill.…”

“…There has been mounting evidence suggesting that ginseng and its major bioactive constituents, ginsenosides, promote hair growth by enhancing proliferation of dermal papilla and preventing hair loss via modulation of various cell-signaling pathways [ 11 , 12 , 13 ]. While the role of 5α-reductase enzyme in the hair-loss process has been well-documented [ 14 , 15 ], the emerging biochemical mechanisms of hair-follicle proliferation and the hair-loss process unravel new targets for designing novel therapeutics for the management of hair loss and alopecia ( Figure 1 ).…”

“…Treatment of FKCs with 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide (4-HC), a metabolite of chemotherapeutic agent cyclophosphamide, attenuated human hair growth, induced premature catagen development, diminished proliferation, and stimulated apoptosis of hair matrix keratinocytes. Pretreatment with KRG protected against 4-HC-induced hair-growth inhibition and premature catagen development partly by blocking 4-HC-induced p53 and Bax/Bcl2 expression [ 13 ].…”

“…To verify that the antiproliferative effects were due to apoptosis‐inducing activity, we quantified apoptotic cell death in those lung cancer cell lines using TUNEL staining after treatment with pinecone water extract ( Fig. ) . All four human lung cancer cell lines showed a significant increase in TUNEL‐positive cells when treated with the water extract, indicating that the cytotoxic effect is, at least in part, attributable to the induction of apoptotic activity.…”
