    GlossaryFAIRE-seq

    technique to identify active regulatory regions in the genome

    FAIRE-seq, or Formaldehyde-Assisted Isolation of Regulatory Elements sequencing, is a technique used to identify regions of the genome that are active in regulating gene expression. It works by using formaldehyde to crosslink DNA and proteins, then isolating the DNA that is not tightly bound to proteins, which typically corresponds to regulatory elements like enhancers and promoters. This isolated DNA is then sequenced to map these regulatory regions across the genome.

      community Average tressless user after taking oral minoxidil

      in Satire  1446 upvotes 2 years ago
      The conversation is about hair loss and the use of minoxidil (Minoxidil) and finasteride (Fin) as treatments. The conclusion is that some users have seen success in maintaining their hair with minoxidil, but there are varying opinions on the effectiveness of the treatments.

      community I have a question for everyone about the new UCLA research

      in Chat  11 upvotes 4 months ago
      The conversation discusses skepticism about a new hair loss treatment called project K, which claims to replicate a chemical from UCLA research but is suspected to be a scam. The original poster plans to continue using oral minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride, along with microneedling, for hair regrowth.

      community How likely do you think it is for PP405 to come out?

      in Research/Science  21 upvotes 2 weeks ago
      PP405 is a potential new hair loss treatment that works through metabolic pathways rather than hormonal ones, with an estimated market release between late 2027 and 2029. Current alternatives to finasteride include minoxidil, pyralutamide, fluridil, and RU58841, with hair transplants also being a viable option.
