Research
5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Hair Growth Promoting Effect of 4HGF Encapsulated with PGA Nanoparticles by β-Catenin Activation and Related Cell Cycle Molecules
PGA-4HGF may help treat hair loss by activating hair growth pathways and extending the hair growth phase.
research Identification of Immune Microenvironment Changes, Immune-Related Pathways and Genes in Male Androgenetic Alopecia
The research suggests immune system changes and specific gene expression may contribute to male hair loss, proposing potential new treatments.
research Establishment of 3D Spheroid Human Dermal Papilla Cells as an Effective Model for Hair Growth Screening Compounds Compared with the 2D System: An Example of Minoxidil and 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid
3D spheroid cultures of human hair follicle cells are better for hair growth research than 2D cultures, and they provide new insights into how hair growth treatments like minoxidil and TCQA work.
research Stress, Hair Growth Control, and the Neuro-Endocrine-Immune Connection
Stress may affect hair growth by influencing hair follicle development and could contribute to hair loss.
research 3D Spheroid Human Dermal Papilla Cell as an Effective Model for the Screening of Hair Growth Promoting Compounds: Examples of Minoxidil and 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid (TCQA)
3D cell cultures are better for testing hair growth treatments than 2D cultures.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Possible explanation of why Dutasteride seems to be worse for some people’s hair.
The conclusion of the conversation is that some individuals may experience a condition called reactionary hypergonadism when taking dutasteride for hair loss. This condition can lead to an increase in testosterone levels, which may worsen hair loss instead of improving it.
community Why is nobody studying the difference between donor and balding hair?
The conversation discusses why the difference between donor and balding hair isn't studied more to find a cure for hair loss. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Keratin microspheres - breakthrough
A gel of keratin microspheres promotes hair follicle growth, showing similar effectiveness to minoxidil in mice. The treatment activates hair growth pathways and reduces inflammation, with potential applications in drug delivery for hair-related disorders.
community Does melatonin dissolve in isopropyl alcohol
The conversation discusses making a topical melatonin solution for hair loss treatment, questioning if isopropyl alcohol can dissolve melatonin. Melatonin is soluble in lipids and alcohol, but it's unstable and should be mixed fresh regularly; it may help hair growth by affecting certain cellular signaling pathways and has anti-androgenic effects.
community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?
The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
