research A role for p75 neurotrophin receptor in the control of apoptosis‐driven hair follicle regression

96 citations , October 2000 in “The FASEB Journal”

In this study, researchers found that p75 neurotrophin receptor signaling affects apoptosis during hair follicle regression in mice, and altering its activity might help manage disorders involving early catagen entry.

research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression

128 citations , March 2006 in “American Journal of Pathology”

The study found that prolactin expressed in human scalp hair follicles acts as an autocrine modulator, inhibiting hair growth and promoting hair follicle regression, which may contribute to hair loss in hyper-prolactinemia patients.

research Aberrant connective tissue sheath contraction drives premature hair follicle regression by inducing progenitor cell depletion in androgenetic alopecia

December 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)”

This study found that targeting connective tissue sheath contraction with an MLCK inhibitor may improve hair growth in androgenetic alopecia by reducing premature hair regression caused by ectopic apoptosis of hair follicle progenitor cells.

research p75 Neurotrophin Receptor Antagonist Retards Apoptosis-driven Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)

24 citations , January 2003 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

In this study, a synthetic antagonist of the p75 neurotrophin receptor was found to significantly inhibit hair follicle regression in murine skin cultures, suggesting a potential role in treating hair disorders characterized by premature catagen entry.

research Apoptotic cells may drive cell death in hair follicles during their regression cycle

October 2023 in “Oncotarget”

In this study using live mice, researchers observed that during hair follicle regression, apoptosis in basal cells may propagate by triggering neighboring cells, potentially regulated by a gradient of pro-survival signals from stem cells, and proposed a testable mechanism to further explore this process.

community Prolactin the Cause of Hair Loss? ABS-201 the Cure?

29 upvotes 2 months ago

Prolactin may contribute to hair loss, but targeting its receptor won't cure androgenetic alopecia. ABS-201 could be a useful alternative or adjuvant therapy, similar to JAK inhibitors, but not more effective than HMI-115.

community The Real Cause Of Androgenetic Alopecia

675 upvotes 1 year ago

Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.

community HMI-115 update: Chime Biologics and Hope Medicine Enter Manufacturing Agreement to Speed up the Launch of First-in-class Antibody Drug HMI-115 Targeting Endometriosis and Androgenic Alopecia

110 upvotes 2 years ago

Chime Biologics and Hope Medicine are speeding up the launch of a first-in-class antibody drug, HMI-115, for endometriosis and androgenic alopecia. The treatment involves a series of subcutaneous injections, has shown promising results in phase 1, and continues to promote hair regrowth even after the treatment is stopped.

community Hair regrowth without drugs (99% natural) 25M

528 upvotes 4 months ago

A user shared their experience with hair regrowth using supplements like NAC and DIM, and briefly using minoxidil with microneedling. They reported some improvement in hair density, but the community questioned the effectiveness compared to traditional treatments like finasteride.
