research Enzymatic Dissociation and Identification of Hair Follicle Stem Cells for Reversing Miniaturization in Androgenetic Alopecia
Injecting stem cells from hair follicles may improve hair growth in baldness.

research Keratinocytes and Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells: The Heir and the Spare to Regenerative Cellular Therapies for Difficult-to-Heal Skin Wounds
Keratinocytes and adipose-derived stem cells can effectively heal difficult skin wounds.

research The Mesenchymal Component of Hair Follicle Neogenesis: Background, Methods, and Molecular Characterization
The document concludes that specific cells are essential for hair growth and more research is needed to understand how to maintain their hair-inducing properties.

research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
Blocking Wnt signaling in young mice causes thymus shrinkage and cell loss, but recovery is possible when the block is removed.

research Stem Cell Therapy as a Novel Therapeutic Intervention for Resistant Cases of Alopecia Areata and Androgenetic Alopecia
Stem cell therapy may help treat tough hair loss cases.

5 / 44 resultscommunity Is it a normal shed or is it fin not working (or making things worse)
The user experienced hair shedding after switching from minoxidil to finasteride and is considering switching to dutasteride or stopping pills altogether. They also stopped using a specific shampoo with probiotics, enzymatic exfoliator, zinc, and panthenol.
community I literally can’t find any evidence of sulfotransferase being upregulated by microneedling or retinoids like tretinoin
Microneedling and tretinoin may enhance minoxidil absorption for hair loss, but evidence on their effectiveness is limited. Iron supplements and broccoli sprouts are suggested for enzyme activation, but their impact on hair is unclear.
community Androgenetic alopecia is a skin disease: DHT-mediated skin disorders
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) impacts various skin conditions, including Androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis, by causing overactivity in sebaceous glands. Topical medications Tacrolimus and Clobetasol can reduce these inflammatory conditions, and treatments like RU58841, Minoxidil, and Finasteride may also be beneficial.
community Similar 5ar inhibitors to fin?
Natural vitamins like pumpkin seed oil, saw palmetto, and ecklonia cava are discussed for their potential to lower DHT levels. They may work similarly to finasteride but are significantly weaker.
community What Determines Sulfotransferase Enzyme Levels In The Body?
Some people have low sulfotransferase enzyme levels, affecting their response to minoxidil. Lifestyle factors, genetics, and diet, like MSM intake, might influence these enzyme levels.
