research Hidradenitis Suppurativa Secondary to Treatment With a Gamma Secretase Inhibitor
A man developed skin lesions as a side effect of a gamma secretase inhibitor used for treating a tumor.
research Dermatologic Toxicities Associated with Chronic Gamma-Secretase Inhibitor Treatment for Desmoid Tumor
Most patients experienced mild to moderate skin problems during a trial for a desmoid tumor treatment.
research An Accessible Pharmacodynamic Transcriptional Biomarker for Notch Target Engagement
Hair follicle samples effectively show how well the drug MK-0752 targets and engages with the Notch pathway.
research Impairment of Notch 1 Signaling Is a Common Defect in Lesions From Patients With Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Notch1 signaling is impaired in hidradenitis suppurativa, affecting skin and hair cells.
research Faculty Opinions Recommendation of Hidradenitis Suppurativa as a Potential Subtype of Autoinflammatory Keratinization Disease
Hidradenitis suppurativa may be a type of autoinflammatory skin disease linked to gene mutations and immune system issues.

5 / 20 resultscommunity How ET-02 Works. Also no proof that it's better than Minoxidil. At least for now.
ET-02, a PAI-1 inhibitor, is not proven to be more effective than Minoxidil for hair loss. Other treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, PP405, and AMP-303 are also discussed, focusing on cellular senescence and oxidative stress.
community DHT Oily Scalp Dangers: Theory of an Oily Scalp and PPAR-GAMMA Dysregulation
Excessive scalp sebum, worsened by DHT, can lead to inflammation and hair loss, with clascoterone mentioned as a treatment. Diet changes seem ineffective for scalp sebum, and treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are suggested.
community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community You will lose hair if your prostaglandins aren't in balance
Prostaglandin balance affects hair loss, particularly in conditions like Lichen Planopilaris, where an imbalance can lead to hair follicle damage. Treatments mentioned include prostaglandin analogs and Pioglitazone HCL, with a focus on maintaining prostaglandin equilibrium for potential hair regrowth.
community Hair Loss & Lipids: Why you have sebderm, folliculitis, LPP, inflammation, etc...
Excess sebum rich in cholesterol and triglycerides can lead to hair loss through inflammation, with treatments like Ciclopirox shampoo, Benzoyl Peroxide shampoo, and Clindamycin gel recommended for managing conditions like seborrheic dermatitis and folliculitis. Pioglitazone is suggested for Lichen Planopilaris, while Omega-3s and reducing processed foods may improve sebum quality, though genetic factors play a significant role.
