5 / 1000+ results research Alopecia X in a cloned Pomeranian dog
In this study, researchers cloned a two-year-old Pomeranian with Alopecia X after its accidental death and found that the cloned dog developed the same hair lesions at the same age, suggesting the condition is genetically driven rather than environmentally influenced.
research Developmentally programmed early-age skin localization of iNKT cells supports local tissue development and homeostasis
iNKT cells help develop and maintain healthy skin in young mice.
research Molecular Engineering of Recombinant Protein Hydrogels: Programmable Design and Biomedical Applications
This review explores how recombinant protein hydrogels, employing molecular engineering and crosslinking strategies, offer advanced applications in regenerative medicine by mimicking extracellular matrix dynamics and providing enhanced mechanical, environmental, and biological properties.
research Surgical management of androgenetic alopecia
This article discusses the potential for transplanting follicles from the occiput of the scalp in AGA patients, noting that these hairs tend to remain terminal and non-miniaturized for life.

5 / 295 resultscommunity What can finasteride do for you if you are destined to go NW6?
Finasteride can effectively slow or halt hair loss, even for those genetically predisposed to significant balding, like Norwood 6 or 7. Many users report long-term maintenance or improvement, often combining it with other treatments like Dutasteride or Minoxidil for better results.
community DNA test result is incredible !
The conversation discusses a personalized hair loss treatment plan based on DNA test results, recommending Minoxidil, Dutasteride, 17-alpha Estradiol, Cetirizine, and PRP sessions. The test identifies a high risk of hair loss due to DHT but a good response to Minoxidil, suggesting a tailored approach to treatment.
community Are there any natural cures? I'm NOT taking finasteride
The user is seeking natural hair loss treatments, avoiding finasteride due to side effects. They mention considering a $1,000 LLT helmet, Nutrafol supplements, and various unproven remedies.
community Evolution theory: AGA is your body trying to reduce the risk of prostate cancer by exposing your scalp to more UV
Androgenic alopecia (AGA) might have evolved to reduce prostate cancer risk by increasing UV exposure to the scalp, but this theory is debated. Treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are used for AGA, though the exact causes and evolutionary reasons for hair loss are unclear.
community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia
Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.
