5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Expression of the Scube3 epidermal growth factor-related gene during early embryonic development in the mouse
This study reports that the mouse Scube3 gene is expressed in various tissues during embryonic development, including the neural tube, limb buds, developing tooth, hair follicle, and skeletal regions.
research Adenosine Stimulates Fibroblast Growth Factor-7 Gene Expression Via Adenosine A2b Receptor Signaling in Dermal Papilla Cells
The researchers reported that adenosine increases FGF-7 expression in dermal papilla cells, which may stimulate hair growth via the A2b adenosine receptor and cAMP pathway.
research Selective Modulation of Hedgehog/GLI Target Gene Expression by Epidermal Growth Factor Signaling in Human Keratinocytes
This study found that EGFR signaling modulates GLI target gene expression, potentially influencing outer root sheath cell specification and hair growth, and may have implications for cancer.
research Differential activity of 2-methylene-19-nor vitamin D analogs on growth factor gene expression in rhino mouse skin and comparison to all-trans retinoic acid
This study found that 2MbisP increases epidermal thickening more rapidly than atRA in rhino mice, while both compounds similarly reduce utricle size.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity DHT Isn’t the Only Factor in Hair Loss and That Might Be the Key to a Real Cure
Hair loss involves more than just DHT, with genetic factors like TRPS affecting hair follicles. Treatments such as Amplifica's AMP-601 and AMP-303 target stem cells for potential hair growth solutions.
community Bee venom better than minoxidil?
Bee venom at 0.001% concentration was more effective than 2% minoxidil in promoting hair growth in mice, possibly due to increased growth factors and reduced inflammation. Caution is advised due to potential allergic reactions and the reliance on animal data.
community Is DHT actually the cause of male pattern hair loss or just a correlating factor? Why I think the research is more complicated than we're told and why I've been looking into GHK-Cu
DHT is not the only cause of male pattern hair loss; genetic sensitivity, inflammation, and fibrosis also contribute. GHK-Cu, a copper peptide, is being explored as an alternative treatment to finasteride and minoxidil, showing potential in improving follicle health.
community new hair out of nowhere 3 weeks post HT! no meds, no vitamins, just growth
After a hair transplant, the user noticed unexpected new hair growth without using medications or vitamins. Many advised starting treatments like minoxidil and finasteride to maintain the results and prevent future hair loss.
community Why does the same hormone grow your beard and destroy your hairline?
DHT promotes beard growth but causes scalp hair loss due to inflammation and fibrosis. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil help with hormonal signals and blood flow but don't address underlying inflammation.

6 / 48 results- Are there risks or side effects associated with treatments that increase Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)? In a VEGF gene-therapy trial for leg artery disease, raising VEGF caused more leg swelling, and excess VEGF drives leaky, abnormal vessels in mice and in eye disease. No long-term studies have tested the safety of treatments that raise VEGF in the scalp.
- What is Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), and how does it support hair growth in alopecia? In mice, VEGF supports hair growth by increasing blood vessels around follicles. There is no direct evidence that raising VEGF treats hair loss in people.
- Can products that stimulate Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) improve blood flow to hair follicles? Unproven. Raising VEGF increases vessels around follicles in mice and minoxidil raises VEGF in cultured cells, but no study shows VEGF-marketed products improve scalp blood flow or hair loss in people.

- What is platelet-derived growth factor beta polypeptide (PDGF-BB), and does it stimulate new hair growth? PDGF-BB is a growth factor that signals to dermal papilla cells and promotes blood-vessel formation; mouse studies report it can push follicles into the growth phase, and human evidence comes only indirectly from PRP trials. No PDGF product is approved for hair restoration and there is no published human trial of PDGF-BB on its own.
