research Intrinsic Activation of Cell Growth and Differentiation in Ex Vivo Cultured Human Hair Follicles by a Transient Endogenous Production of ROS
Temporary ROS production in cultured human hair follicles promotes growth and stem cell activation.
research The Role of MEK and Antizyme in Keratinocyte Stem Cell Expansion and Differentiation
Antizyme reduces tumor growth and normalizes skin cell development affected by MEK.
research Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Proliferation, Migration, and Differentiation of Epidermal Stem Cells and Progeny During Cutaneous Wound Repair
The vitamin D receptor is essential for skin stem cells to grow, move, and become different cell types needed for skin healing.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells: In Vitro and In Vivo Neural Differentiation
Hair follicle stem cells can become different cell types and may help treat neurodegenerative disorders.
research Differentiation of Nestin-Negative Human Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath Cells Into Neurons In Vitro

5 / 421 resultscommunity Tazarotene shows strong standalone hair regrowth potential, not just a Minoxidil enhancer. Backed by VEGF, HF regeneration, and angiogenesis pathways. Here’s why.
Tazarotene shows potential as a standalone treatment for hair regrowth by stimulating new hair follicle formation and promoting angiogenesis, similar to microneedling effects. It can be used topically without minoxidil, but users should start with a low concentration to avoid irritation.
community Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment
The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
community Minoxidil Response Bottlenecks: Why Sulfation and Transport Matter (And Where Tretinoin Fits In)
Minoxidil's effectiveness is limited by the need for sulfation and proper transport to hair follicles, with tretinoin potentially enhancing its effects by promoting enzyme activity and keratinocyte differentiation. Tretinoin may improve minoxidil's response by boosting the expression of necessary enzymes and transporters.
community Painkillers May Block Minoxidil
Painkillers like Aspirin may reduce Minoxidil's effectiveness by inhibiting the enzyme PGHS-1, which is crucial for hair growth. Using NSAIDs that inhibit COX-2 or combining Minoxidil with PGF2/E2 analogues or retinoids may enhance its efficacy.
community Being Safe on Oral Minoxidil: tl;dr on the literature.
Oral minoxidil is effective for hair loss but can cause cardiovascular side effects, such as pericardial effusion, especially in those with genetic predispositions. Starting with low doses and monitoring cardiovascular health are advised to reduce risks.
