Anti-hair-loss
INCI namesh-Polypeptide-10
sh-Polypeptide-10 is a synthetic recombinant single-chain peptide, an analog of human Fibroblast Growth Factor 10 (FGF10) that is involved in normal skin growth, regeneration, and wound repair. After UV exposure, dermal cells produce FGF10, which provides a protective effect against UV-induced skin damage, increasing epidermal thickness and promoting keratinocyte proliferation.
Boosting fibroblast growth, sh-Polypeptide-10 promotes collagen and elastin production, exposing a firmer, lifted, and rejuvenated appearance of the skin. It smooths fine lines and wrinkles and helps prevent their future formation.
Studies using hair root sheath and dermal papilla cells showed that FGF10 increases nuclear β-catenin levels, thereby promoting cell proliferation and migration. It encourages hair follicle development, making sh-Polypeptide-10 helpful for anti-hair loss and other hair care applications.
Encapsulated in
Lactic Acid/Glycolic Acid Copolymer (PLGA) microcapsules, recombinant FGF10 accelerates wound healing by stimulating the generation of new dermal cells and improving skin renewal. sh-Polypeptide-10 is a safe, effective, and compatible ingredient for advanced anti-aging applications for skin, hair, and body care.
