Assay process

  • Step 1: Stabilizing induced pluripotent stem cells after culturing for the differentiation of skin organoids.
  • Step 2: Cells are cultured on a U-bottom plate to form embryoid bodies (EBs) and differentiate into skin organoids.
  • Step 3: Treatment of male hormone (DHT) alone or simultaneously with the sample before checking the hair placode.
  • Step 4: Compare the number of hair follicles formed in the experimental group treated with DHT alone and the experimental group treated simultaneously with the sample.

Identify markers related to skin structure and hair follicles through Immunofluorescence (IF) analysis to evaluate the hair loss efficacy of the sample.

Technical

Histological analysis
Hair follicle counting
Morphology analysis

Observe the morphology of the group treated with DHT alone and the group treated simultaneously with hair root strengthening substances Minoxidil and SOYACT.
In the simultaneously administered group, more hair follicles were observed compared to the group administered DHT alone.

Immunofluorescence

The Immunofluorescence (IF) results in the group treated simultaneously with DHT and Minoxidil, DHT and SOYACT confirmed an increase in SOX2.
