Corneal cells can transform into skin and hair cells through specific signals.
research Dermal Niche Signaling and Epidermal Stem Cells
Skin health and repair depend on the signals between skin stem cells and their surrounding cells.
research Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
The conclusion is that certain cell interactions and signals are crucial for hair growth and regeneration.
research Hedgehog Stimulates Hair Follicle Neogenesis by Creating Inductive Dermis During Murine Skin Wound Healing
The Sonic hedgehog pathway is crucial for new hair growth during mouse skin healing.
research Skin Shedding and Tissue Regeneration in African Spiny Mice (Acomys)
African spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair, and cartilage, but not muscle, and their unique abilities could be useful for regenerative medicine.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Peppermint oil for Hair Thickness
Peppermint oil may increase hair thickness more effectively than minoxidil, but its effects are mostly studied in animals. Users report mixed results, with some seeing no regrowth and others noting slight improvements when combined with other treatments.
community Better Than Minoxidil? Topical Sodium Valproate
Topical sodium valproate may promote hair growth by inhibiting GSK3β, allowing beta-catenin to proliferate, but it has potential side effects and requires more research. The conversation also mentions skepticism about a product called Vdphlo1, which includes sodium valproate and other ingredients.
community PP405 Won't Work Long Term: Hair Follicle Damage Due to Abuse of the ISR System
PP405 may damage hair follicles if used long-term, suggesting cycling might be necessary. Combining it with finasteride could help maintain hair growth.
community DLQ01: A Better "Minoxidil" PGF2a synthetic analogue.
DLQ01, a prostaglandin F2α analog, shows promise for hair growth by directly stimulating PGE2/PGF receptors without needing conversion, and can be combined with minoxidil and retinoids like tretinoin for enhanced effectiveness. Minoxidil's efficacy may be reduced by COX-1 inhibitors, but using prostaglandin analogs like Latanoprost or Bimatoprost can help maintain its effectiveness.
community How ET-02 Works. Also no proof that it's better than Minoxidil. At least for now.
ET-02, a PAI-1 inhibitor, is not proven to be more effective than Minoxidil for hair loss. Other treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, PP405, and AMP-303 are also discussed, focusing on cellular senescence and oxidative stress.
