research Hair Growth Promoting Effects of 650 nm Red Light Stimulation on Human Hair Follicles and Study of Its Mechanisms via RNA Sequencing Transcriptome Analysis
650 nm red light helps hair grow and prevents hair loss by affecting certain genes and biological processes.
research Efficient Gene Editing for Heart Disease via ELIP-Based CRISPR Delivery System
ELIP-based CRISPR delivery improves heart disease gene editing but needs more testing.
research Olfactory Receptor OR2AT4 Regulates Human Hair Growth
A certain smell receptor in hair follicles can affect hair growth when activated by a synthetic sandalwood scent.
research Evaluating Hair Growth Promoting Effects of Candidate Substances: A Review of Research Methods
The document concludes that while lab results for hair growth promotion are promising, human trials are needed and better testing methods should be developed.
research The Rho GTPase Exchange Factor Vav2 Promotes Extensive Age-Dependent Rewiring of the Hair Follicle Stem Cell Transcriptome
Vav2 changes how hair follicle stem cells' genes work as they age, which might improve regeneration but also raise cancer risk.

5 / 395 resultscommunity Minoxidil is NOT an Anti-androgen. No.
Minoxidil is not an anti-androgen; it is a growth stimulator and does not lower DHT like finasteride or dutasteride. Minoxidil can cause side effects like facial swelling and anxiety due to its vasodilator properties.
community Minoxidil is a 5ar inhibitor according to research
Minoxidil may inhibit androgen receptors and affect hormonal pathways, potentially explaining its effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Users discuss its varying effectiveness on scalp versus facial hair and note fewer side effects with topical use compared to oral.
community A systematic bro-science review of DHT, 5AR, neurosteroids, sexual health and 5AR inhibitors
Hair loss treatments, specifically 5AR inhibitors, can impact neurosteroids and sexual health. The effects of topical fin/dut on tissue-specific DHT levels are unclear.
community Binding affinity of pyrilutamide!
Pyrilutamide, a nonsteroidal antiandrogen drug under development for the potential treatment of androgenic alopecia. The conversation discusses its binding affinity to the androgen receptor and the timeline for possible availability after trials are completed in the United States and China.
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.
