Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an in vivo examination means which can easily and securely examine effects of a hair growing material on extending the hair growth period in a growth cycle by applying the hair growing material to a nude mouse, specifying the condition of a part with hair growing on the body surface of the nude mouse, and examining the effects of the hair growing material on extending the hair growth period in a growth cycle. SOLUTION: In this method, such a nude mouse is used as has basically no hair but can grow hair in a part of the body surface which may move over time. Hair of the mouse (e.g. balb c nu/nu) grows in a very long and narrow part for a limited period (according to a hair growth cycle), and the grown hair will gradually fall out in a few days. As a result, the part with hair growing will move from the head to the tail of the mouse as time passes. As for such a nude mouse, the length of the growth period in a hair growth cycle can be examined by specifying the width of the part with hair growing and the speed of moving of the part with hair growing, or observing time for hair to start growing in a specific part. The hair growing material to be examined will be applied to the surface skin of the mouse, or orally administered, or hypodermically injected.

2. Description of the Related Art Each hair repeatedly grows and falls according to a so-called "hair cycle" which undergoes a growth period, a regression period, and a rest period, and performs a normal hair cycle. In the scalp, the ratio of anagen hair to telogen hair is maintained at a certain level. In contrast, for example, in the case of androgenetic alopecia, the growth period is shortened due to various causes, or as a result of the hair follicles shrinking, the proportion of telogen hair becomes relatively large and the hair becomes thin. As a result, the apparent amount of hair decreases and hair loss or the like occurs. In a modern society called an aging society and a stressed society, there are more and more opportunities for the head hair to be exposed to the aforementioned danger of hair loss and the like.

[0003] In response, various hair restorers have been provided from various viewpoints, and it is clear that the trend will continue in the future. Many of these hair restorers extend the anagen phase in the hair cycle or promote induction into the anagen phase. Hair growth agents that are naturally being developed are usually examined for their effect on hair growth on animals prior to administration to humans. It is often practiced to apply a hair tonic to the hair to examine the hair growth, ie, the effect of inducing the growth phase. However, although this method is suitable for examining the effect of inducing the anagen, it is troublesome to examine the effect of prolonging the anagen.
It is also difficult. Hair transplantation tests have also been performed using the immune tolerance of nude mice. However, this method is very time-consuming and, because of the variation in the properties (sensitivity) of the hair itself, large amounts of drugs can be used. There is no denying that it is inappropriate as an evaluation method.

[0008] The nude mouse applicable to the present invention is a hairless hair mouse which is hairless in principle, but has a characteristic hair growth in which the hair growth site moves over time on the body surface. For example, in the nude mouse balb nu / nu, a band-like hair growth is observed in a very narrow range for a certain period (along with the growth period of the hair cycle), and the hair that has grown hair falls sequentially in about 2 to 3 days. As a result, the hair growth site moves over time from the head to the tail. In this nude mouse, the length of the anagen phase of the hair cycle can be assayed by specifying the width of the hair growth site and the moving speed of the hair growth site, or measuring the hair growth period at the specific site.

(1) Ascertaining the area and state of the hair growth site: By ascertaining the area of the hair growth site during the test period, it is possible to ascertain the hair growth effect or the growth period extension effect of the hair growth product. That is, if the hair growth site throughout the test period is large, it indicates that the hair growth effect or growth period extension effect of the hair growth product is large, and conversely, if the hair growth site is small, these effects are small.

That is, for example, when the area of the hair growth site is fixed, if the short hairs grow very sparsely, the effect on the hair growth of the hair growth product is small, and conversely, the hair growth site has a small effect. Even when the area is small, it can be determined that this effect is large when long hairs are densely grown. In this way,
The area and state of the grasped hair growth site are quantified, and for example, the product of the two values is quantified as, for example, a hair growth evaluation point, and the administered hair restoration can be comprehensively evaluated.

(2) Ascertaining the number of days for maintaining hair growth: Administration is performed by ascertaining the number of days for maintaining hair growth, that is, the number of days from when hair growth is observed on the back skin surface to when the hair enters the rest period and falls off. It is possible to grasp the effect of extending the anagen phase in the hair cycle of the hair growth. The hair growth maintaining days can be grasped, for example, by grasping the movement period of the hair growth site within a certain distance to determine the movement speed of the hair growth site, and using this movement speed and the average width of the hair growth site.

[0015] The higher the moving speed, the shorter the hair growth maintenance days, and the earlier the transition from the anagen to the regression period, and conversely, the slower the hair moves, the longer the hair stays in the anagen and the elongation of the anagen. It shows that. Further, a back line is drawn from the shoulder line of the mouse, and a hair growth maintaining period at a certain point (for example, a middle point (0.5) when the length of the back line is 1) is determined. , It can be the number of days of hair growth maintenance. In this way, the number of days for maintaining hair growth can be ascertained, and the effect of the administered hair growth prolongation of the hair growth period can be assayed.
