Outline of Final Research Achievements

The effect of PS-B1 (a fermented product cultured from soybean milk using lactic acid bacteria) on hair growth in vivo was examined by topical application of PS-B1 on the shaved dorsal skin of 4-week-old male C57BL/6 mice. The 20% ethanol solutions which included PS-B1 (5%, 15% and 30%), PBS (30%) and soybean milk (30%), respectively, were prepared as application liquids and 50 μL of each liquid was applied to the back of mice (n=10) once a day until hair growth of all mice was completed (8 months). From the picture analysis of dorsal skin, application of PS-B1 induced earlier telogen to anagen conversion as compared to those observed the vehicle treatments. Furthermore, the increase of expression of growth factors implicated in the regulation of hair growth (FGF-2 and KGF) were found as a result of the PCR analysis of the cultivation human follicle dermal papilla cells which stimulated by PS-B1. These results suggested that PS-B1 contains hair growth promoting substances.
