This study investigated how keratinocytes in the skin respond to different iron levels and found they play a significant role in regulating iron homeostasis by storing iron, affecting epidermal differentiation, and influencing inflammation-related gene expression in mice.
research LB1077 Cutaneous responses to systemic iron: A potential role for epidermal turnover in mammalian iron excretion
This study suggests that epidermal turnover could be a regulated mechanism of iron excretion, with systemic iron levels influencing keratinocyte behavior and differentiation markers in the skin.
research Iron Metabolism of the Skin: Recycling versus Release
This study reviews iron metabolism in the skin, highlighting how differentially expressed genes regulate iron recycling in the epidermis, and discusses changes in iron metabolism related to skin diseases.
research Iron Deficiency in Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Skin Diseases: A Missing Link Between Systemic Inflammation, Immunometabolism, and Disease Burden
This review highlights that iron deficiency is a significant yet often overlooked contributor to the development of immune-mediated inflammatory skin diseases, suggesting that iron dysregulation may drive inflammation and metabolic imbalances in conditions like psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.

5 / 61 resultscommunity Microneedling must reach the stem cells in the upper hair shaft
Microneedling should target depths of 0.5mm to 1.5mm for hair loss, with weekly sessions at 1mm recommended. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil is common for improved results.
community Scalp slapping to increase blood flow?
This post and conversation are about using scalp slapping to increase blood flow for hair growth. One user suggests using minoxidil instead.
community 4 months, only Minoxidil 5% ,dermarolling twice a week. hair growth results. any suggestions?
Significant hair growth was achieved using Minoxidil 5% and dermarolling twice a week, with suggestions to add finasteride for maintenance. There is debate on when to apply Minoxidil after dermarolling to avoid irritation.
community Confused why people are calling PP405 a cure...it never claimed to be able to undo miniaturization or revert vellus back to terminal hairs. It seems to be more of a growth stimulant like minoxidil.
PP405 is not a cure for hair loss but may reactivate dormant hair follicles, similar to minoxidil. It is unlikely to help with miniaturized or vellus hairs and is still in trial phases, with availability expected around 2030.
community Are Derma Rollers Actually Harmful in the Long Run?
Derma rollers may cause scarring alopecia, leading some to prefer dermastamps or dermapens for microneedling. Combining minoxidil with microneedling is effective, but proper technique and healing time are essential to prevent damage.
