      research 164 Epigenetic and transcriptional profiling of PBMCs in mild and severe alopecia areata using single-cell RNA-Seq and ATAC-Seq

      November 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”
      This study used advanced single-cell RNA and chromatin sequencing to investigate differences in peripheral blood cells between mild and severe alopecia areata patients, uncovering shared transcription factor motifs that may explain disease severity and open avenues for future research on therapeutic targets.

      research Regionalisation of the skin

      26 citations , December 2013 in “Seminars in cell & developmental biology”
      This article reviews how anatomical differences in skin arise and persist, and suggests the underlying molecular positional code is more complex than apparent, but reports no new research findings.
      Environmental Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and Their Epigenetic Influence on Androgenetic Alopecia

      research Cyberspace Chat

      March 2012 in “Hair transplant forum international”
      This article discusses differences in hair loss among monozygotic female twins despite identical genetics and reports no new clinical findings.

      research How a Bird Gets Its Feathers: Insights from Chromatin Looping

      3 citations , June 2020 in “Developmental Cell”
      This study observed that in chicken skin, large-scale differences in gene expression between feathered and scaly skin are controlled by enhancer-driven uniform expression, while small-scale differences within individual feathers are associated with chromatin looping.

      community Rosemary oil's potency as a dht blocker

      in Research/Science  65 upvotes 2 years ago
      Rosemary extract showed high inhibitory activity against DHT, similar to finasteride and dutasteride, but the conversation includes skepticism about its effectiveness in humans since the study was done on mice and rosemary oil is often considered ineffective based on personal experiences. Some suggest trying rosemary oil alongside other treatments, while others emphasize the difference between the extract used in the study and the oil.

      community Surprising dutasteride studies on low dose effect

       132 upvotes 4 months ago
      Low doses of dutasteride are as effective as higher doses for hair regrowth, with fewer side effects. Users find success taking it 2-3 times a week instead of daily.

      community Sugar and Hair loss connections

      in Research/Science  41 upvotes 1 year ago
      High sugar diets may worsen hair loss by increasing 5α-reductase activity and androgen levels, especially in women with PCOS. A low sugar diet might reduce scalp DHT levels, similar to finasteride, but genetics also significantly influence hair loss.
