research A functional polymorphism in interleukin-1α (IL1A) gene is associated with risk of alopecia areata in Chinese populations

11 citations , March 2013 in “Gene”

This study reported that the IL1A 4-bp indel polymorphism is associated with a reduced risk of alopecia areata in Chinese populations, possibly through miR-122 mediated regulation of IL-1α expression.

research The mouse frizzy (fr) and rat ‘hairless’ (fr^CR) mutations are natural variants of protease serine S1 family member 8 (Prss8)

28 citations , February 2010 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This study concluded that the frizzy mutation in mice is linked to a T to A transversion in Prss8 and is orthologous to the 'hairless' mutation in rats.

community Low-Dose Oral Minoxidil Does Not Significantly Affect BP

in Minoxidil 178 upvotes 1 year ago

Low-dose oral minoxidil is used for hair loss and does not significantly affect blood pressure but may increase heart rate and cause hypotensive symptoms. Some users experience side effects like palpitations and shortness of breath, while others find it effective; topical minoxidil with tretinoin is also considered.

community "When comparing 5% minoxidil with 0.60 mm or 1.20 mm needle lengths, Faghihi et al. found that 0.60 mm needle lengths led to significant hair count and diameter increases versus 5% minoxidil, whereas 1.20 mm needle lengths only saw hair count increases versus 5% minoxidil"

in Research/Science 60 upvotes 2 years ago

Microneedling with 0.6 mm needles combined with 5% minoxidil is more effective for hair count and thickness than minoxidil alone or with 1.2 mm needles. Biweekly microneedling at 0.6 mm depth is recommended for better results in treating androgenetic alopecia.
