The study was performedby treated with PTX topically in male Swiss albino rats. The animals divided into seven groups with sixanimals in each group. To induce alopecia Cyclophosphamide used at a dose of (125 mg/kg) intraperitoneal.Macroscopically pentoxifylline (PTX) treated groups displayed new hair growth. Strong follicularproliferation was demonstrated by histopathology and gross morphological observations of hair growth inshaved areas. The blood biochemical cytokine assay revealed a down regulation of pro inflammatory TH1cytokines TNF-? and INF-g, in addition there is up regulation of TH2 cytokine IL-13. In the study showedan efficient efficacy on the treatment of alopecia induced by cyclophosphamide.]]>
