research Dissimilar effects of the hydrophilic carbon dots on the amyloid aggregation of two model proteins and the mechanism discussion

April 2024 in “JMR. Journal of molecular recognition/Journal of molecular recognition”

This study found that hydrophilic carbon dots (Lys-CA-CDs) induced bovine serum albumin to form more wormlike fibrils, while inhibiting hen egg white lysozyme from forming hair-like fibrils.

research Differentiation of nestin-negative human hair follicle outer root sheath cells into neurons in vitro

5 citations , January 2017 in “Molecular Medicine Reports”

This study found that nestin-negative hair follicle stem cells can differentiate into neural stem cell-like cells, but not mature neurons, through a multi-step neuro-induction process.

research From a stem-cell–centered to a niche-centered view: the core role of collagen networks in hair loss and hair follicle miniaturization

May 2026 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology”

In this study, researchers suggest that hair follicle miniaturization in conditions like androgenetic alopecia may result from impaired conversion of quiescent stem cells to progenitor cells, influenced by the follicular niche, its collagen network, and various mechanical constraints.

research Scanning Electron Microscopic Study on Collagen Fibrils in the Mink Dermis during the Hair Cycle and Growth

January 1994 in “Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho”

This study observed that mink dermal collagen fibrils undergo structural changes during the hair cycle, with increased fiber thickness and bundle density as minks grow.

research Ultrastructure of Follicular Mucinosis

11 citations , June 1974 in “Journal of Cutaneous Pathology”

In this study, electron microscopy of follicular mucinosis showed severe cytoplasmic degeneration in hair follicles, with myelin figures and onion-like lamellar structures, but no indications of mucin release through degeneration or degradation were found.

Oral minoxidil can cause serious heart issues like cardiac hypertrophy and arrhythmias, prompting some users to reduce dosage or switch to topical treatments. Despite significant hair regrowth, side effects such as shortness of breath and chest pains are common concerns.

community Be careful with minoxidil, even if it's just foam.

in Minoxidil 12 upvotes 1 year ago

Minoxidil caused side effects like chest pain and tinnitus for the user, leading them to stop using it and consider switching to finasteride with microneedling. Other users shared similar experiences with minoxidil, while some reported no issues, highlighting varied individual reactions.

community Can someone explain why it's "dumb" to just drink topical liquid minoxidil?

25 upvotes 3 years ago

The conversation discusses the risks and methods of ingesting liquid minoxidil for hair loss. Concerns include dosing accuracy, safety of ingredients, and potential side effects compared to using oral minoxidil tablets.

community Seems like hair cloning has existed for a while

9 upvotes 10 months ago

Hair cloning claims by Dr. Gho are widely considered a scam, with skepticism about the effectiveness of his hair stem cell transplantation. Users suggest that if it were effective, wealthy individuals would opt for it over traditional methods like FUE transplants.

community Hair feels like hay/brittle and slow growing some areas

in General 138 upvotes 1 year ago

The user is experiencing hair thinning and brittleness, possibly due to Telogen Effluvium, which affects body hair and may be linked to stress or nutrition. They are considering using finasteride for treatment but are unsure if it will address their symptoms.
