research Supplementary Figures, Tables and Legends from Mobilizing Transit-Amplifying Cell-Derived Ectopic Progenitors Prevents Hair Loss from Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy

March 2023

In this study, various cellular responses and signaling pathways were examined in hair follicles after exposure to ionizing radiation, including the effects of Wnt3a treatment, with findings noted in apoptosis, DNA damage, and differentiation processes.

research Supplementary Figures, Tables and Legends from Mobilizing Transit-Amplifying Cell-Derived Ectopic Progenitors Prevents Hair Loss from Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy

March 2023

Results are not reported in this study, which investigated the effects of radiation on hair follicles and evaluated various cellular responses and signaling pathways, particularly focusing on WNT signaling and the impact of Wnt3a treatment.

Mobilizing Transit-Amplifying Cell-Derived Ectopic Progenitors to Prevent Hair Loss from Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy

research Data from Mobilizing Transit-Amplifying Cell-Derived Ectopic Progenitors Prevents Hair Loss from Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy

March 2023

This research reports that after genotoxic stress from ionizing radiation or chemotherapy, hair follicles can utilize progenitor cells from transit-amplifying compartments, not quiescent stem cells, for repair, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach to prevent therapy-induced hair loss by activating these progenitors.

Valproic Acid Reduces Hair Loss and Improves Survival in Patients Receiving Temozolomide-Based Radiation Therapy for High-Grade Glioma

research Valproic acid reduces hair loss and improves survival in patients receiving temozolomide-based radiation therapy for high-grade glioma

26 citations , November 2016 in “European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology”

This study found that using valproic acid during radiotherapy for glioma was associated with delayed hair loss and improved survival outcomes.

research Drug-Induced Hair Disorders

40 citations , August 2006 in “Current Drug Safety”

This article reviews how various drugs may cause hair loss, stimulate growth, or alter hair characteristics, but reports no new clinical results; drug-induced hair loss is typically reversible.

community Everyone is ignoring that plasma finasteride levels are 100x lower with topical compared to oral.

in Research/Science 140 upvotes 2 years ago

Topical finasteride results in plasma levels 100 times lower than oral finasteride, potentially reducing systemic side effects. Users report similar efficacy with fewer side effects, suggesting a preference for topical application.

community Efficacy and Tolerability of N-Acetyl-Cysteine for Treatment of The Early-onset Androgenetic Alopecia in Men

26 upvotes 4 years ago

N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) was found to improve hair parameters in men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia, showing increased terminal hair count and decreased vellus hair count, with good tolerability. NAC, used alone or with minoxidil, may help due to its antioxidant properties, though its effectiveness can vary among individuals.

community Wtf have we been doing for the last 30 years

in Treatment 548 upvotes 1 year ago

Hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride work but have side effects. A permanent cure is still not available due to the complexity of hair loss and limited investment.

community Before and after female hair loss

72 upvotes 1 month ago

OP has been using spironolactone and minoxidil for 3 years with slow hair growth results, possibly affected by vaping. Users suggest adding microneedling, hair serum, dietary changes, and checking spironolactone dosage for better results.
