5 / 1000+ resultsresearch TGF-β2 Is Specifically Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Modulates Hair Folliculogenesis
TGF-β2 plays a key role in human hair growth and development.
research Transforming Growth Factor-Beta in Stem Cells and Tissue Homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research Increment of Growth Factors in Mouse Skin Treated with Non-Thermal Plasma
Non-thermal plasma treatment makes mouse skin thicker and increases growth factors without harming the tissue.
research Towards Dissecting the Pathogenesis of Retinoid-Induced Hair Loss: All-Trans Retinoic Acid Induces Premature Hair Follicle Regression by Upregulation of Transforming Growth Factor-β2 in the Dermal Papilla
All-trans retinoic acid causes hair loss by increasing TGF-β2 in hair follicle cells.
research Androgen-Inducible TGF-β1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Inhibits Epithelial Cell Growth: A Clue to Understanding Paradoxical Effects of Androgen on Human Hair Growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity UPDATE: The theory that explains everything. Please help me make this big!
Hair loss theory involves 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase (3AHD) converting DHT to androstenol. Discussion explores potential treatments and encourages more research.
community Peptides that Stop Hair Loss? | In-depth Literature Review Video
Peptides like TB500, KPV, GHK-CU, and BPC-157 are overhyped for hair growth with limited proven effectiveness in humans. Combining peptides with delivery methods like iontophoresis and sonophoresis shows promise, but many claims remain unproven.
community A concise, easy-to-understand post on Androgenic Alopecia theory and its practical applications
The mechanism of Androgenic Alopecia and practical applications of treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, dermarolling, scalp massages, anti-fungals, progesterone, estrogen, PPAR-γ activators, reducing oxidative stress, and scalp exercises. It explains why DHT is important in AA and how other factors might be involved such as hypoxia, increased DKK-1 expression, morphological changes to the scalp, skull growth during childhood/puberty, and blood flow.
community 0.5mg Dutasteride promotes more “regrowth” than 5mg oral Minoxidil
Dutasteride promotes more hair regrowth than Minoxidil. Users discuss combining treatments for better results and share personal experiences with side effects.
community Why is Minoxidil not enough for hair loss? (No fin)
Minoxidil alone is often insufficient for treating hair loss because it doesn't address the DHT-related cause. Combining it with finasteride, a DHT blocker, is generally more effective.
