The invention relates to a composition comprising a HIF-1a activity potentiating agent for use in a method of preventing or treating hair loss, wherein the HIF-1a activity potentiating agent is an iron chelator, preferably Deferiprone. The invention further relates to a composition for topical application, comprising a HIF-1a activity potentiating agent that is an iron chelator. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for cosmetic treatment or prevention of hair loss, comprising topical application of a composition comprising a HIF-1a activity potentiating agent that is an iron chelator to an area of skin.

Topical formulation for use in alopecia

Efficient stem cell delivery into biomaterials using capillary driven encapsulation are disclosed herein where stem/progenitor and/or tissue specific cells are rapidly and efficiently seeded via capillary driven encapsulation into a porous scaffold for cell delivery in the skin or any other organ. The rapid capillary force approach maximizes both seeding time and efficiency by combining hydrophobic, entropic and capillary forces to promote active, 'bottom-up' cell engraftment. This methodology uses micro domain patterned biopolymers in a porous dry gel to generate capillary pressure to move a viscous stem cell mix from a hydrophobic reservoir into the polymer matrix to promote active cell seeding within the entire gel volume.
