Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

In this study, the investigator will try to highlight the presence of carbonyl compounds in the hair follicles of women with telogen effluvium (ET) linked to stress of various origins (fatigue, infectious diseases, emotional stress ...).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Hair follicles sampling
N/A

Detailed Description

At the cutaneous level, oxidative stress induces the formation of carbonyl compounds which, by binding to proteins, produce nonfunctional adducts inducing cutaneous aging. Is this mechanism, called "Carbonyl stress", also present in the scalp and can it be one of the mechanisms involved in the occurrence of reactive hair loss ? To demonstrate this, samples of hair follicles are made. The proteins are extracted from the samples and then assayed. The oxidized (carbonyl) proteins are labeled with specific fluorescent probes.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: ET group

Sampling : Hair follicles sampling on the scalp in women with Telogene Effluvium

Other: Hair follicles sampling
The follicles will be collected by lock of 10 hair on the scalp (centro-parietal part), to obtain 40 follicles with epithelial sheath

Experimental: Control group

Sampling: Hair follicles sampling on the scalp in women without Telogene Effluvium

Other: Hair follicles sampling
The follicles will be collected by lock of 10 hair on the scalp (centro-parietal part), to obtain 40 follicles with epithelial sheath

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Biological evaluation [Visit 1- Day 1]

    Evaluation of the quantity of carbonyl compounds measured in the hair follicles taken from the two groups.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Safety evaluation [Visit 1- Day 1]

    Adverse events evaluation
