摘要：In today's society, hair is not only used to protect the body and maintain body temperature, but to play an aesthetic role. Therefore, interest in natural products that can improve hair loss is increasing. In this study, the hair loss improvement effect of a mixture of Chrysanthemum zawadskii, peppermint and Glycyrrhiza glabra (FHH-CZ) was investigated in Human follicle dermal papilla cell (HFDPC) and C57BL/6 mice. ELISA, Western blot, RT-PCR and animal experiments were performed. The results showed that FHH-CZ suppressed the expression of 5α-reductase type 2 and androgen receptor in testosterone-treated HFDPC. In addition, pretreatment with FHH-CZ reduced the Bax/Bcl2 expression ratio through inhibition of Dkk-1 expression in testosterone-treated HFDPC. In animal experiments, FHH-CZ promoted hair growth and increased the number of hair roots in C57BL/6 mice. Therefore, the results of this study suggested that FHH-CZ could be used as a natural material with few side effects to improve hair loss.
