 manufacturer Lion has elucidated a mechanism for increasing the permeability of hair-growth drug.

Lion has confirmed that the permeability of cytopurine (6-benzyl aminopurine), a kind of hair growth ingredient, is increased as octyldodecyl lactate Lactate

A salt or ester of lactic acid (CH3CHOHCOOH). In lactates, the acidic hydrogen of the carboxyl group has been replaced by a metal or an organic radical. Lactates are optically active, with a chiral center at carbon 2.
, an alpha-hydroxy acid derivative, rearrays the lipid molecules of intercellular intercellular /in·ter·cel·lu·lar/ (-sel´u-lar) between or among cells.

 lipids.

In particular, a hair-growth drug containing octyldodecyl lactate increases permeability 2.4 times, reinforcing the hair-growth promoting effect.

Details of the research will be unveiled at the 126th Annual Meeting of the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan to be held in Sendai in March.
