Description

Cholesterol is the major sterol in mammals, and its importance in fundamental cellular processes is becoming more appreciated. IC50 value:Target:In vitro: GT1-7 hypothalamic cells subjected to cholesterol depletion in vitro produced 20-31% reductions in cellular cholesterol content, similar to the decrease in cholesterol synthesis observed in diabetes [1].In vivo:

Drug Function and Efficacy

This product is a compound external ointment. Its main ingredient, ginsenoside, has the characteristics of non-ionic surface activity. It can directly enter the interior of the hair fiber and connect with the hydrophilic groups in the hair keratin through the hydroxyl groups in the ginsenoside molecules, thereby improving the tensile strength and elongation of the hair. Pepper tincture improves scalp blood circulation, and together with anti-seborrheic drugs such as diethylstilbestrol and salicylic acid, it reduces sebum secretion, increases hair follicle nutrition, improves excessive keratinization of the hair follicle mouth, and stimulates the hair growth function of the affected scalp.

This ingredient has been used in drugs with the following functions (note: it does not mean that the ingredient itself has the following health functions)
