Cyclosporin A in preventing organ rejection was shown in liver transplants performed by Dr. Thomas Starzl at the University of Pittsburgh hospital. Possibilities for the development of cyclosporin A (CsA) as a new hair growth stimulator using excessive hair growth side effects have been reviewed in a variety of studies. For treatment of alopecia, some researchers transformed CsA structure into having low immunosuppression activity. The objectives of this study were (a) to evaluate the effect of a CsA derivative which has much low degree of immunosuppression and maintains a good hair growth on the number of organ cultured hair follicles and to assess proliferation of hair follicle keratinocytes, and (b) to study its effect on the extent of proliferation in hair follicle outer root sheath cells and on keratinocyte cell cultures in vitro.
