Is cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice associated with inhibition of hair follicle regression?
CsA may induce hair growth by increasing the number of hair follicles and inhibiting apoptosis of follicular keratinocytes, thereby delaying hair follicle regression.
The novel N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-binding lectin isolated from L. araripensis seeds presents anti-inflammatory effect involving the lectin domain and the inhibition of 5-HT, BK, PGE2, NO, TNF-α and leukocyte rolling and adhesion.
