    TLDR The mutant HR bmh protein mis-localizes in cells, affecting skin and hair development.
    The study investigated a mutation at the mouse hairless locus, resulting in a larger mutant protein, HR bmh, due to a 296 bp deletion. This mutation led to the abnormal localization of the HR bmh protein in the cytoplasm, where it interacted with the vitamin D receptor but failed to repress VDR-mediated transactivation. The HR bmh protein was found to co-localize with HDAC6 in the cytoplasm, sharing high sequence homologies, and was implicated in endosomal processing and proteasome-related pathways. These findings were significant in understanding the specific skin phenotype observed in hairless mutant mice.

      community Have some questions about prescription I got from a trichologist

      in Chat  1 upvotes 9 months ago
      A trichologist prescribed Biotrade Sebomax HR Anti-Hair Loss Tonic, Spectral DNC-N Nanoxidil, Hairfollic Him/Man Vitamins, and Bosley MD DHT blocking supplements instead of finasteride due to potential risks at age 21. The user questions the legitimacy of the treatment and considers seeking a second opinion.

      community Topical minoxidil responder tests + switching to oral

      in Minoxidil  1 upvotes 2 weeks ago
      The user has been using topical minoxidil with tretinoin for 9 months without much regrowth and suspects finasteride is responsible for any improvement. They are inquiring about tests to determine response to topical minoxidil and seeking advice on switching to oral minoxidil, including potential side effects and monitoring requirements.

      community My 3 month 'progress' so far. I feel like it's working.

      The user is experiencing positive hair growth after 3 months using 0.5mg dutasteride, 2.5mg oral minoxidil, topical minoxidil, dermastamping, and biotin shampoo, with some side effects like reduced libido and palpitations. They plan to continue treatment for a year before considering a hair transplant, as advised by another user who suggests waiting for full results from minoxidil and finasteride.
