5 / 1000+ results research Use of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells in Dermatological Research
This article discusses the potential of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) for generating skin components, particularly for genetic skin disorder modeling and gene-corrected regenerative therapies, but reports no new clinical results.
research Abstracts from the 55th European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG) Conference: Oral Presentations
This study found that mutations in the TULP3 gene are associated with progressive degeneration of the liver, kidney, and heart in adults, highlighting the importance of early detection and management.
research Testing the impact of trait prevalence priors in Bayesian-based genetic prediction modeling of human appearance traits
This study found that using trait prevalence-informed priors may improve the prediction accuracy of appearance traits in Bayesian models, but their application is limited by sparse knowledge on trait prevalence.
research The Genetic Landscape of Androgenetic Alopecia: Current Knowledge and Future Perspectives
This review discusses the complex genetic factors contributing to androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the variability in genetic risk across different populations and the emerging understanding of personalized treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical findings.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Hair loss research is a money grab
Hair loss is linked to DHT, with treatments like finasteride and minoxidil being common but not definitive. Economic interests influence research, and there is potential for new treatments like PP405 and RU58841.
community A Logical, Step-by-Step Guide to Managing Androgenetic Alopecia (No BS)
Finasteride and minoxidil are recommended as first-line treatments for hair loss, with dutasteride and oral minoxidil as stronger options if needed. Hair transplants should only be considered after achieving stability with medication, and non-surgical options are suggested if medications are ineffective.
community "Hair Follicle Stem Cells are quiescent 99% of the time and permanently reside in the hair follicle"
Hair follicles are mostly dormant but can be reactivated with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and microneedling. A new drug, PP405, shows promise for hair regrowth but may not be available until 2027-2028.
community So we have 20k dollars human like machines available but no new effective treatment for hairloss since finasteride :)
There have been no new effective hair loss treatments since finasteride, despite technological advancements. Current treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841, with ongoing challenges and potential future solutions in research.
community 2020 updated guide for "I'm losing my hair, what do I do?". I've been taking Propecia for 12 years, and you can AMA.
Hair loss treatments discussed include Propecia, Rogaine, Nizoral shampoo, and dermarolling. Users shared experiences and results, with some noticing improvements in hair growth and maintenance.
