research Immunohistochemical Characterization of the Cellular Infiltrate in Severe Alopecia areata before and after Minoxidil Treatment

31 citations , January 1987 in “Dermatology”

This study reports that topical minoxidil led to normalization of hair follicle characteristics in 36 of 47 severe alopecia areata patients, and indicated a shift in T cell populations, suggesting potential immunomodulatory effects.

research Immunohistochemical assessment of SOX10 and its relation to the immune cellular infiltrate in alopecia areata follicles

August 2024 in “Journal of the Egyptian Womenʼs Dermatologic Society”

In this observational study, SOX10 was expressed in 53 out of 81 examined hair follicles in patients with alopecia areata and showed a significant positive relation with the perifollicular lymphocytic infiltrate, suggesting that melanocytes may play a role in the disease's autoimmune pathogenesis.

research Immunohistochemical and Electron Microscopic Characterization of the Cellular Infiltrate in Alopecia (Areata, Totalis, and Universalis)

78 citations , July 1984 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

research Cellular Activity in the Dermis Surrounding the Hair Bulb in Alopecia Areata

25 citations , October 1975 in “Journal of Cutaneous Pathology”

This study found that in alopecia areata, hair bulbs are blocked in an early growth stage due to impaired metabolic function in the surrounding connective tissue, hindering hair growth.

research The effect of human hair keratin hydrogel on early cellular response to sciatic nerve injury in a rat model

105 citations , May 2013 in “Biomaterials”

In this study, the researchers found that a keratin hydrogel filler in nerve conduits led to earlier Schwann cell migration and improved cellular behaviors compared to other fillers in a rat sciatic nerve model.

community Is DHT actually the cause of male pattern hair loss or just a correlating factor? Why I think the research is more complicated than we're told and why I've been looking into GHK-Cu

78 upvotes 4 months ago

DHT is not the only cause of male pattern hair loss; genetic sensitivity, inflammation, and fibrosis also contribute. GHK-Cu, a copper peptide, is being explored as an alternative treatment to finasteride and minoxidil, showing potential in improving follicle health.

community A Theory on Why Microneedling Works

175 upvotes 6 years ago

Microneedling may enhance hair regrowth by transferring stem cells to dormant follicles, improving the effects of minoxidil. Users discuss using microneedling with needle lengths around 1.5mm to stimulate hair growth.

community Why Fin/Dut Isn't Working for You GPR133: a new hairloss mechanism + Steroid Hair Loss Deep Dive

6 upvotes 1 month ago

Hair loss may be linked to the GPR133 receptor, independent of the androgen receptor pathway. Treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, RU58841, and KX-826 show varying results, with hair loss persisting due to high testosterone and GPR133's role.

community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?

140 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.

How does Vitamin B2 support scalp circulation and cellular energy production? Vitamin B2 enhances scalp circulation and energy production by supporting cellular metabolism.

learn Folic acid

How does folic acid support hair follicle health and growth at a cellular level? Folate is required for the DNA synthesis that fast-dividing hair matrix cells depend on, and severe deficiency causes anemia—but no published trial has given folic acid to people with hair loss and measured the result, so a growth effect is a mechanism, not a finding.
