| Résumé : |
Fullerene is a molecule with a soccer ball-like structure consisting of 60 carbon atours, and is said to be the third carbon allotrope (after graphite and diamond) (Fig 1). Owing to its unique structure, it is chemically characterised by strong antioxidation and is anticipated to have various applications.' It is already being sold as a cosmetic raw material because of its antioxidant properties. Several clinical studies have reported its efficacy in reducing spots, wrinkles, and acne, which are thought to be associated with oxidative stress. Although it has been reported that oxidative stress is involved in alopecia areata, the link between hair growth and oxidative stress has not been found ; moreover the effects of substances with antioxidant properties, such as fullerene, are also unknown. Therefore, we conducted a single-blind clinical trial to determine how application of a tonic containing fullerene to human male scalps influences hair growth. |
