research The Distribution of Preputial Vessels at Different Severity of Rat Congenital Hypospadias Model

September 2019 in “Research Square (Research Square)”

In this study, micro-CT analysis revealed that severe hypospadias in finasteride-induced rats was associated with varying levels of preputial blood circulation, impacting potential surgical approaches.

Poor Perifollicular Vascularization Is Associated With Nutrient Insufficiency and a Quiescent Metabolic Phenotype in Intermediate Hair Follicles From Patients With Female Pattern Hair Loss

research 333 Poor perifollicular vascularization is associated with nutrient insufficiency and a quiescent metabolic phenotype in intermediate hair follicles from patients with female pattern hair loss

October 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

In this study, the researchers found that scalp hair follicles affected by female pattern hair loss are poorly vascularized, likely affecting nutrient delivery, but capable of nutrient uptake when supplemented.

research Alterations in Hair Follicle Morphology and Hair Shaft Production After Follicular Unit Transplantation

8 citations , February 2016 in “The American Journal of Dermatopathology”

In this study, the researchers found that transplanted hair follicles undergo significant morphological changes, including a thickened dermal sheath and increased hair shaft diameter, which are associated with altered follicular vascularization.

research Vascular mechanisms in laser hair removal

10 citations , January 2000 in “Journal Of Cutaneous Laser Therapy”

Laser hair removal might also work by damaging blood vessels around hair follicles.

research Male Pattern Alopecia A Histopathologic and Histochemical Study

94 citations , August 1975 in “Journal of Cutaneous Pathology”

In this study, the researchers observed that male pattern alopecia is characterized by miniature follicles, enlarged sebaceous glands, and an increased number of mast cells, without significant abnormalities in enzyme activity.

community Scientists have found that a naturally occurring sugar in humans and animals could be used as a topical treatment for male pattern baldness | In the study, mice received 2dDR-SA gel for 21 days, resulting in greater number of blood vessels and an increase in hair follicle length and denseness

644 upvotes 2 years ago

Scientists discovered a sugar gel, 2dDR-SA, that increased hair growth in mice. Users discussed its potential, comparing it to other treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.

community Is this true? It can be a major breakthrough

1008 upvotes 5 months ago

Deoxyribose sugar gel may stimulate hair regrowth similarly to minoxidil by enhancing blood supply and follicle activity. Human trials are necessary, and current products have mixed results.

community Groundbreaking sugar gel might be a miracle hair loss solution for men and women

in Technology 125 upvotes 1 year ago

A sugar gel called 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR) shows potential for promoting hair regrowth by increasing blood supply to hair follicles, similar to Minoxidil, but its effectiveness in humans is unproven. It may benefit those who don't tolerate Minoxidil, but it is not a replacement for treatments like Finasteride or RU58841.

community Interesting discovery in the news?

4 upvotes 2 years ago

A naturally occurring sugar, 2-deoxy-D-ribose, may promote hair growth by forming new blood vessels. There is skepticism about its effectiveness and concerns about potential side effects, with some users comparing it to existing treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.

community Supplements for Health hair as for Gemini & Grok

1 upvotes 9 months ago

The conversation discusses various supplements and vitamins like Vitamin D3, K2, Biotin, Iron, Zinc, and B Vitamins for improving hair health. It also mentions a combination of Tocotrienols, Pycnogenol, Saw Palmetto, Pumpkin Seed Oil, Stinging Nettle, and Myricetin for stabilizing hair, with Saw Palmetto, Pygeum, and Stinging Nettle noted for thickening hair despite side effects.

learn Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor

How does Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) differ from DHT-blocking treatments for androgenic alopecia? VEGF promotes blood vessel growth, while DHT-blocking treatments reduce hormone effects on hair follicles.

learn Beta Polypeptide

learn Osteopontin

signaling protein that, when suppressed, may grow hair by reducing inflammation and stem cell loss

learn capsicum

How does capsicum improve scalp circulation and boost growth? Capsaicin dilates blood vessels through TRPV1 activation, so capsicum is expected to raise scalp blood flow, but every human hair-loss study used it inside a multi-ingredient formula — and the strongest one gave it orally, not on the scalp — so its effect on hair by itself is unproven, and it is a known skin irritant.

learn Platelet-Rich Plasma

What is Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Beta Polypeptide, and how does it help stimulate new hair growth? PDGF-BB is a growth factor that signals to dermal papilla cells and promotes blood-vessel formation; mouse studies report it can push follicles into the growth phase, and human evidence comes only indirectly from PRP trials. No PDGF product is approved for hair restoration and there is no published human trial of PDGF-BB on its own.
