Auxin Signaling Gets Oxidative to Promote Root Hair Growth

The conversation discusses the potential of cinnamic acid for hair growth. It also mentions treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

Hypoxia may enhance hair growth by stimulating stem cells, but it could also risk fibrosis. Some users humorously discuss extreme methods like choking while using minoxidil, highlighting the need for new treatments.

Fatty acid metabolic signaling can activate epithelial stem cells for hair regeneration. Oleic and palmitoleic acids showed the best results, but practical application on humans remains uncertain.

NMN shows promise in promoting hair growth by reducing oxidative stress and weakening androgens. It may be a beneficial addition to hair loss treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.

RootBioTec, a basil hairy root extract, claims to reduce hair loss by 31% in two months by inhibiting 5α reductase II and stimulating hair follicles. There is limited independent information available about its effectiveness.

Rotenone, a natural plant extract, may promote hair growth by increasing LDH activity and blocking MPC in the scalp, but it carries risks due to its toxicity. The suggested formulation includes Barbasco extract, DMSO, propylene glycol or PEG-400, ethanol, and a carrier oil.
