    TLDR The research found changes in gene expression related to cell death in mouse skin that help understand hair follicle development and skin health.
    The study investigated the expression of apoptosis-related genes in mouse skin during the first postnatal catagen stage, with a focus on the localization of Bnip3L and caspase-12. The researchers found that both Bnip3L and caspase-12 were significantly expressed during this stage, suggesting their involvement in the regulation of apoptosis in hair follicles. The findings provided insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying hair follicle regression and could contribute to understanding hair growth and loss processes.

      community Fresh off the press: Dutasteride may cause chronic infertility

      in Research/Science  643 upvotes 3 months ago
      Dutasteride may cause chronic infertility by reducing semen volume and motility, with concerns about irreversible prostate fibrosis. Users consider switching to finasteride or using treatments like minoxidil and microneedling, weighing hair preservation against fertility.

      The post discusses using Sandalore as a potential hair loss treatment, emphasizing precise measurements and safe handling. The user compares Sandalore's effects to Minoxidil and mentions preparing a solution with ethanol and DMSO.

      community Minoxidil actually reduces wrinkles

      in Research/Science  209 upvotes 6 months ago
      Minoxidil may improve or worsen skin quality, with topical forms causing dryness and wrinkles, possibly due to alcohol content, while oral forms have fewer side effects. Some users consider using tretinoin to mitigate negative effects.

      community Weed/THC effects on hair growth/hair loss, and vitality of organ-culture human follicle studies (research review)

      in Research/Science  4 upvotes 8 months ago
      Cannabis and THC may have mixed effects on hair, with some studies suggesting potential negative impacts on hair growth in isolated hair follicles, but these results are hard to apply to living humans. Treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used for hair loss, and the effects of cannabis might be neutral or vary based on individual factors.

      community The MPB itch aka DHT itch is very real.

      in Chat  9 upvotes 2 years ago
      Hair loss itch is caused by DHT attacking follicles and stimulating nerves. Finasteride users who respond well don't experience this itch.
