research Immunization by Application of DNA Vaccine onto a Skin Area Wherein the Hair Follicles Have Been Induced into Anagen-onset Stage

20 citations , August 2007 in “Molecular therapy”

This study found that inducing hair follicles into the anagen-onset stage in mice enhances the immune response to a topically applied DNA vaccine against anthrax.

research The extent of the uptake of plasmid into the skin determines the immune responses induced by a DNA vaccine applied topically onto the skin

11 citations , January 2011 in “Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology”

This study found that inducing hair follicles into the anagen stage by plucking significantly enhances antibody responses in mice after topical DNA vaccine application, compared to retinoic acid or TPA treatments.

research Nanoparticle-Based Targeting of Vaccine Compounds to Skin Antigen-Presenting Cells By Hair Follicles and their Transport in Mice

119 citations , December 2008 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology”

In this study, transcutaneously applied nanoparticles and viral vectors were shown to penetrate murine hair follicles, internalize in antigen-presenting cells, and induce immune responses, suggesting a promising approach for vaccine delivery.

research Cancer vaccine strategies and studies of human thioredoxin reductase splice variants

May 2010 in “OPAL (Open@LaTrobe) (La Trobe University)”

This research discusses potential cancer vaccine strategies using cell-based and DNA vector-based approaches, and suggests targeting the v3 splice variant of thioredoxin reductase 1 to inhibit cancer cell motility and metastasis formation.

research Post SARS-CoV-2 vaccination effluvium

September 2022 in “European Journal of Dermatology”

This study identified a novel pathogenic splice-site variant of the LAMB3 gene in patients with junctional epidermolysis bullosa, highlighting the importance of gene sequencing for diagnosis.

community Genomic Sequencing for Hair Loss

in Research/Science 156 upvotes 5 months ago

Hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and potential mRNA therapies are discussed. There is skepticism about targeting specific genes due to the complex genetic nature of hair loss.

community We already know how to permanently fix hair loss. The science is done. The only thing missing is the funding to run one experiment.

in Technology 613 upvotes 4 months ago

A permanent hair loss solution could involve reprogramming hair follicles to resist DHT using mRNA and siRNA. However, high costs, safety concerns, and the pharmaceutical industry's preference for ongoing treatments over one-time cures are major obstacles, with finasteride and minoxidil remaining standard treatments.

community IVF process on Finasteride and effects of stopping finasteride.

138 upvotes 9 months ago

Concerns about finasteride affecting sperm quality and embryo abnormalities during IVF. The user plans to stop finasteride for 6 months and use minoxidil, microneedling, a red light cap, and saw palmetto shampoo to manage hair loss.

community So we have 20k dollars human like machines available but no new effective treatment for hairloss since finasteride :)

in Chat 237 upvotes 1 year ago

There have been no new effective hair loss treatments since finasteride, despite technological advancements. Current treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841, with ongoing challenges and potential future solutions in research.

community How do I not kill my partners cat while using minoxidil ?

in Minoxidil 156 upvotes 9 months ago

Minoxidil is toxic to cats, so users should wash hands after application and ensure it dries before pets are near. Some switch to oral minoxidil to avoid risks, while others use topical forms cautiously.
