L-(+)-Tartaric Acid Minimally Affects Viability or Molecular Signature but Increases Expression of Selected Hair Growth-Associated Genes in Human Dermal Papilla Cells

research L-(+)-Tartaric Acid Minimally Affects the Viability or Molecular Signature but Increase the Expression of Selected Hair Growth Associated Genes in Human Dermal Papilla Cells

January 2021 in “Journal of cosmetology & trichology”

This study suggests that L-(+)-Tartaric Acid may support hair growth by up-regulating certain genes in human Dermal Papilla cells, making it a potentially useful additive in minoxidil formulations.

research A Mutation in the Serum and Glucocorticoid-Inducible Kinase-Like Kinase (Sgkl) Gene is Associated with Defective Hair Growth in Mice

6 citations , January 2004 in “DNA Research”

This study identified a nonsense mutation in the Sgkl gene as the cause of defective hair growth in a mutant mouse strain, implicating the SGKL signaling pathway in hair development.

research A homozygous missense mutation in the fibroblast growth factor 5 gene is associated with the long-hair trait in Angora rabbits

5 citations , June 2023 in “BMC genomics”

This study found that a specific genetic mutation in the Fgf5 gene may contribute to the long-hair trait in Angora rabbits by reducing the binding capacity of the FGF5 protein.

research Exploring molecular mechanisms controlling skin homeostasis and hair growth : microRNAs in hair-cycle-dependent gene regulation, hair growth and associated tissue remodelling

January 2010 in “Bradford Scholars (University of Bradford)”

This study found that microRNAs play key roles in regulating gene expression during the hair cycle in mice, impacting follicle growth and skin homeostasis through mechanisms involving major signalling pathways.

research Deficiency in Nucleotide Excision Repair Family Gene Activity, Especially ERCC3, Is Associated with Non-Pigmented Hair Fiber Growth

10 citations , May 2012 in “PloS one”

This study found that non-pigmented hair follicles have significantly lower expression of nucleotide excision repair genes, which may be associated with reduced melanin production capacity in these follicles.

community Common hair-loss drug consistently associated with higher rates of psychiatric harm

in Research/Science 183 upvotes 11 months ago

Finasteride and dutasteride can cause psychiatric side effects like depression and suicidal thoughts in some users, especially those with a history of mental health issues. While some users experience positive hair growth results, others face severe psychological effects, raising concerns about their safety and the need for careful monitoring.

community 57% increased chance of pattern hair loss independently associated with the consumption of sugary beverages in men (p<0.001).

297 upvotes 2 years ago

Sugary beverages increase the risk of pattern hair loss in men by 57%, and type 2 diabetes is linked to female pattern hair loss. Reducing sugar intake and using treatments like finasteride and minoxidil may help manage hair loss.

community Hate how younger generation makes hair seem more important than it is

in Chat 152 upvotes 7 months ago

A 25-year-old man is worried about his girlfriend noticing his balding and is frustrated by society's focus on looks. He uses minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride for hair loss and considers being honest with her.

community 57% increased chance of pattern hair loss independently associated with the consumption of sugary beverages in men (p<0.001) Pt 2

484 upvotes 2 years ago

Sugary beverages increase the risk of pattern hair loss in men by 57%. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community Haircafe on why microneedling is bad for hair growth

in Microneedling 157 upvotes 2 years ago

Microneedling combined with minoxidil and finasteride shows significant hair regrowth, though opinions on its effectiveness vary. Some users report substantial benefits, while others highlight the need for more research and consistency in application.

learn Hair Transplant

Are there any risks associated with beard transplantation? Beard transplantation carries risks of infection, scarring, swelling, and uneven growth.
What are the risks and side effects of FUE hair transplants? Providers describe most FUE side effects, such as swelling, redness, numbness and shock loss, as temporary, but FUE is surgery and the same sources report pain, infection, folliculitis and small permanent donor-site scars. Longer-lasting problems, including visible donor-area thinning or poor graft growth, are possible and are not covered by this provider survey.
When will I see new hair growth after a hair transplant? New hair growth usually starts 2-4 months after a hair transplant.

learn Nanoxidil

How long does it usually take to notice new hair growth with Nanoxidil? New hair growth with Nanoxidil typically takes 3 to 6 months to become noticeable.

learn Platelet-Rich Plasma

How many Platelet sessions are usually needed before noticeable hair growth begins? Noticeable hair growth typically begins after 2 to 3 PRP sessions.
