research Mediator 1 ablation induces enamel-to-hair lineage conversion through enhancer dynamics

September 2022 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)”

This study found that the deletion of Med1 in dental epithelia causes a shift from dental to hair tissue development, suggesting the importance of Med1 in maintaining tissue-specific lineage.

research Highlights

community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia

16 upvotes 9 months ago

Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.

community Oral minoxidl - Is this a medication that's generally safe to take for life? Like what I understand oral fin is? Also do studies show that in general or in a significant amount of more cases that results with oral minox + oral fin > oral fin in terms of long-term use(talkin 20+ years).

in Minoxidil 77 upvotes 1 year ago

Oral minoxidil combined with finasteride can improve hair density, but long-term safety is uncertain due to potential side effects like heart and kidney issues. Users report mixed experiences, with some experiencing side effects and others finding it effective for hair maintenance.

community Everything you ever wanted to know about Pelage Pharma's PP405: how it works and what to expect

126 upvotes 3 months ago

PP405 may encourage earlier hair growth and slightly increase visible hair count but does not reverse hair follicle miniaturization in male pattern baldness. It does not address damage to the dermal papilla or broken Wnt signaling.

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 I was wrong about Dutastride. Let the I told you so comments rain in.

76 upvotes 10 months ago

Switching from dutasteride to finasteride caused increased hair loss, dandruff, depression, and erectile dysfunction. The user plans to return to dutasteride, possibly with minoxidil, and is considering dosing strategies to manage side effects and regrowth.
