Did you mean Telogen-Anagen Transition?

Glossary Telogen-Anagen Transition

shift from hair resting phase to active growth phase

The Telogen-Anagen Transition refers to the phase in the hair growth cycle where hair follicles shift from the resting phase (telogen) to the active growth phase (anagen). This transition is crucial for the renewal of hair, as it marks the end of the shedding period and the beginning of new hair growth. Understanding this process is important for both diagnosing and treating hair loss conditions such as alopecia.

research An estrogen receptor pathway regulates the telogen-anagen hair follicle transition and influences epidermal cell proliferation.

154 citations , October 1996 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America”

This study found that 17-beta-estradiol inhibits hair growth in mice by blocking hair follicles in the telogen phase, whereas an estrogen receptor antagonist promotes hair growth by initiating anagen.

research The balance of Bmp6 and Wnt10b regulates the telogen-anagen transition of hair follicles

35 citations , February 2019 in “Cell Communication and Signaling”

This study found that BMP6 and Wnt10b competitively regulate the transition between hair follicle growth phases, offering new insights into hair follicle cycling and potential hair loss treatments.

research Adenovirus-Mediated Wnt5a Expression Inhibits the Telogen-To-Anagen Transition of Hair Follicles in Mice

19 citations , January 2013 in “International journal of medical sciences”

In this study, overexpression of Wnt5a in mice was associated with the elongation of the telogen stage and inhibition of hair growth initiation, suggesting Wnt5a's role in maintaining hair follicle quiescence.

research Transcriptomic analysis of regulatory mechanisms in the telogen-anagen transition of ovine hair follicles

2 citations , December 2024 in “BMC Genomics”

In this study, researchers used transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis to identify important genes and pathways involved in the transition between hair growth phases, offering new insights into hair follicle cycle regulation and development.

research ALKBH5 acts as a regulator of hair follicle telogen-to-anagen transition in mice

September 2026 in “Communications Biology”

This study found that deleting Alkbh5 in mice accelerates the transition from telogen to anagen in hair follicles by promoting stem cell activation and proliferation through increased Mcam expression.

community copper peptides ghk-cu ahk-cu experience

1 upvotes 2 months ago

Copper peptides GHK-Cu and AHK-Cu are discussed for hair loss treatment, with questions about their effectiveness and application methods. One user suggests sticking to traditional treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride, as they didn't notice significant results with copper peptides.

community Aminexil, Nanoxidil, Stemoxydine and Kopexil. Anyone use them?

1 upvotes 9 years ago

Aminexil, nanoxidil, stemoxydine, and kopexil are discussed as alternatives to minoxidil for hair growth, with concerns about dependence. Minoxidil is noted for its effectiveness in transitioning hair growth phases, but dependence is mainly linked to androgenic alopecia.

community Hair loss over a year following depression and taking antidepressants

in Side effects? 200 upvotes 8 months ago

A 33-year-old experienced significant hair loss after a depressive episode and taking paroxetine, possibly due to telogen effluvium or androgenic alopecia. Suggestions included reducing alcohol, considering finasteride and minoxidil, and consulting a doctor about antidepressant side effects.
