Research
5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Morphogenesis, Growth Cycle, and Molecular Regulation of Hair Follicles
Hair growth and health are influenced by factors like age, environment, and nutrition, and are controlled by various molecular pathways. Red light can promote hair growth, and understanding these processes can help treat hair-related diseases.
research Investigation of Transcriptional Gene Profiling in Normal Murine Hair Follicular Substructures Using Next-Generation Sequencing to Provide Potential Insights into Skin Disease
Hair follicles have a more inactive cell cycle than other skin cells, which may help develop targeted therapies for skin diseases and cancer.
research Hair and Scalp Disease Detection Using Machine Learning and Image Processing
The machine learning model accurately detected hair loss and scalp diseases using processed images.
research Growth Factors in Hair Organ Development and the Hair Growth Cycle
Growth factors are crucial for hair development and could help treat hair diseases.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity 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 Is hair thinning or loss associated with pain?
Hair thinning/loss associated with burning scalp pain. Finasteride helped relieve "DHT itch" for one person.
community Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community RU58841 vs Pyrilutamide (scientist opinion)
Hair loss treatments, specifically about the effectiveness of RU58841 compared to Pyrilutamide. Molecular weights and side effects were discussed in terms of efficacy and cost-effectiveness.
community Derms are so useless, how did they even get to be in these positions with all these academic years when random internet dwellers know more than them?
The conversation is about frustration with dermatologists not effectively treating hair loss and the difficulty in obtaining prescriptions for Minoxidil and Finasteride. Some users suggest seeing specialists or general practitioners for hair loss treatment, while others share their own experiences with dermatologists and the importance of doing personal research.
