research Minoxidil Sulfotransferase Enzymatical Activity in Plants: A Novel Paradigm in Increasing Minoxidil Response in Androgenetic Alopecia
Some plants like spinach, broccoli, and matcha may boost the effectiveness of the hair growth drug minoxidil.
research Characterization of Follicular Minoxidil Sulfotransferase Activity in a Cohort of Pattern Hair Loss Patients from the Indian Subcontinent
About 41% of Indian hair loss patients have low enzyme activity that affects hair loss treatment effectiveness, with men affected more than women. Testing for this can guide treatment.
research The Effect of Topical Minoxidil Treatment on Follicular Sulfotransferase Enzymatic Activity
Topical minoxidil does not change the activity of hair follicle enzymes that metabolize it.
research A Randomized Clinical Trial of 5% Topical Minoxidil Versus 2% Topical Minoxidil and Placebo in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Men
5% minoxidil works better for hair growth and density, with minor irritation.
research Sulfation of Minoxidil by Multiple Human Cytosolic Sulfotransferases
Minoxidil breakdown varies by enzymes, affecting hair loss treatment effectiveness.
research Sulfation of Minoxidil by Liver Sulfotransferase
