research Change in hair growth-related gene expression profile in human isolated hair follicles induced by 5-alpha reductase inhibitors – dutasteride and finasteride – in the presence of testosterone

1 citations , June 2021 in “Singapore Medical Journal”

This study suggests that type I 5-alpha reductase may also play a role in hair growth, with dutasteride potentially being more potent than finasteride in modulating key hair growth gene expressions.

research Changes in hair growth characteristics in response to an increase in dietary zinc up to 4.5 times maintenance from three different commercially available sources in the dog

March 1996 in “Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science”

This study examined how different forms of dietary zinc affect the dimensions, weight, and zinc content of dog hair to evaluate coat condition.

research Changes in hair growth characteristics in response to an increase in dietary zinc up to 4.5 times maintenance from three different commercially available sources in the dog

March 1996 in “Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science”

This study examined how the form of dietary zinc affects the dimensions, weight, and zinc content of dog hair, which are considered indicators of coat condition.

research Change in Hair Growth-related Gene Expression Profile in Human Isolated Hair Follicles Induced by 5-alpha Reductase Inhibitors, Dutasteride and Finasteride, in the Presence of Testosterone

January 2019

This study suggests that 5AR inhibitors may reverse decreased expression of growth factor genes in human hair follicles under testosterone stimulation, indicating involvement of type I 5AR in hair growth.

research Changes in the hair growth cycle in women with non-scarring alopecia

October 2018 in “Vestnik dermatologii i venerologii”

This study found that VEGF growth factor plays a significant role in the development of androgenetic alopecia and telogen hair loss in women, more so than KGF, TGF-01, or EGF.

learn Clascoterone

How long does it take for clascoterone to show results on hair growth? Clascoterone is not approved for hair loss; it is investigational. In the trials reported so far, application was twice daily and increases in terminal hair count were reported at around 6 months, with more sustained change reported between 6 and 12 months.

learn Fluridil

How long does it take to see results with Fluridil in progressive hair loss? No published study measures how long fluridil takes to show a visible change; the single double-blind trial (43 men, 2% fluridil) reported a rise in the proportion of hairs in the growth phase at three and nine months, and community reports describe stabilization rather than regrowth.
