research Evaluation of Gene Expression Patterns in Micrografts Demonstrates Induction of Catagen-Like Processes During Storage
Storing hair follicle micrografts for longer times can cause them to enter a state similar to the natural hair shedding phase, which might impact hair transplant results.
research Methods in Hair Research: How to Objectively Distinguish Between Anagen and Catagen in Human Hair Follicle Organ Culture
A reliable system was developed to distinguish hair growth stages, aiding in identifying hair growth promoters or inhibitors.
research Temporary Hair Removal by Low Fluence Photoepilation: Histological Study on Biopsies and Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Low fluence photoepilation temporarily removes hair by targeting the hair follicle's pigmented area without severe damage.
research Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Cow Placenta Extract Lotion Versus Minoxidil 2% in the Treatment of Female Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia
Cow placenta lotion works like minoxidil 2% for female hair loss, with fewer side effects.
research Culture of the Human Pilosebaceous Unit, Hair Follicle, and Sebaceous Gland
The article concludes that developing in vitro models for human hair structures is important for research and reducing animal testing, but there are challenges like obtaining suitable samples and the models' limitations.

5 / 35 resultscommunity Fevipiprant 2019!
The conversation discusses Fevipiprant, an asthma drug that may block CRTH2 and potentially stop male pattern baldness (MPB) without inhibiting DHT. It also mentions the use of finasteride and dutasteride for hair loss.
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 PP405: The Ultimate Hair Loss Drug for Complete Hair Growth
PP405 is a new hair loss treatment in phase 2 trials that may promote hair growth by increasing lactate production and activating hair follicle stem cells. It could potentially replace hormone-disrupting treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.
community Is it possible to create an estrogen mesotherapy/topical that doesn't go systemic?
The conversation discusses the potential of using topical estrogen treatments for hair loss without systemic absorption, highlighting challenges and possible solutions like using estriol. It also mentions other treatments like topical finasteride, microneedling, and scalp massage, while noting the limitations and side effects of current options.
community Losing gains from 7 months of oral min, fin, dut.
A user reported losing hair after 7 months of using oral minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride, but others reassured that this is likely just a shedding phase where old hairs fall out to make way for new growth. Some users experience sheds every 7-8 months and suggest staying consistent with treatment.
