research Dermal Papilla Cells and Melanocytes Response to Physiological Oxygen Levels Depends on Their Interactions
Oxygen levels affect hair growth and color cells differently when they interact directly.
research Knockout of Integrin Beta1 in Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Accelerates Skin-Wound Healing by Promoting Cell Migration in Extracellular Matrix
Turning off a specific gene in stem cells speeds up skin healing by helping cells move better.
research Identification of Differentially Expressed miRNAs in Alopecia Areata That Target Immune-Regulatory Pathways
Researchers found that certain miRNAs, which affect immune system regulation, are differently expressed in mice with a hair loss condition compared to healthy mice.
research Function and Interactions of the Ysc84/SH3yl1 Family of Actin- and Lipid-Binding Proteins
The Ysc84/SH3yl1 protein family is important for cell movement and the process of taking in materials by interacting with actin and cell membranes.
research Toward Understanding Scarless Skin Wound Healing and Pathological Scarring
Scarless healing is complex and influenced by genetics and environment, while better understanding could improve scar treatment.

Sugary beverages increase the risk of pattern hair loss in men by 57%. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Trying to understand finasteride side effects and post finasteride syndrome
The conversation discusses the side effects of finasteride, including low libido and erectile dysfunction, and the possibility of these effects being permanent, known as post-finasteride syndrome (PFS). Some users report personal experiences with PFS and debate whether the condition is real, with varying opinions on the reversibility of side effects and the role of individual biology.
community Comprehensive Microneedling Guide
Microneedling for hair restoration involves daily use of a 0.3 mm device and weekly use of a 0.5 mm device. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil can enhance hair growth.
community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.
Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.
community A year of fin+min(23yo), got my life back
A 23 year old user who has had success with finasteride and minoxidil, regaining their hair after losing it due to male pattern baldness. They also attribute part of the success to lifestyle changes such as eating better, exercising, sleeping well, and reducing smoking.
