research Calcineurin/Nfatc1 signaling links skin stem cell quiescence to hormonal signaling during pregnancy and lactation

40 citations , April 2014 in “Genes & Development”

The researchers reported that in mice, prolactin signaling in the skin epithelium inhibits hair follicle stem cell activation, promoting quiescence during periods of high serum prolactin like pregnancy and lactation.

research Understanding human aging and the fundamental cell signaling link in age-related diseases: the middle-aging hypovascularity hypoxia hypothesis

4 citations , June 2023 in “Frontiers in Aging”

This scoping review evaluates the connection between hypoxia and declining sex hormonal signaling in middle-aged individuals, proposing a "middle-aging hypovascularity hypoxia hypothesis" as a potential mechanism influencing age-related diseases, with implications for developing strategies to maintain healthspan.

research [Implication of VEGF, steroid hormones and neuropeptides in hair follicle cell responses].

12 citations , May 2002 in “PubMed”

This review examines how hormonal, vascular, and neuropeptide factors may regulate hair growth, suggesting a combined approach could contribute to developing new treatments for hair loss; it reports no new clinical results.

research What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?

29 citations , March 2019 in “British Journal of Dermatology”

Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.

research Alternative Therapies for Hair Loss: Stem Cells, Oils, and Laser Treatment

August 2025 in “Dermatological Reviews”

This review reports that stem cell-based therapies, natural oils, and low-level laser therapy may offer promising and safe alternative treatments for alopecia, although further standardized trials are needed for confirmation.

community The Real Reason For Hair Loss?

8 months ago

Hair loss is linked to scalp fibrosis and tension, which result from chronic mechanical stress and androgenic signaling. Treatments include blocking androgens with finasteride, promoting hair growth with topical minoxidil, and improving scalp mobility through exercises.

community Does RU58841 potentially cause cancer?

in Research/Science 1 year ago

RU58841 may pose cancer risks due to its antiandrogen properties and lack of long-term safety data. Using it is considered a high-risk experiment with unknown potential for harm.

community New Research- Creatine Increasing Scalp DHT Without Corresponding Serum DHT Increase

121 upvotes 2 years ago

Creatine may increase scalp DHT without affecting serum DHT, potentially speeding up male pattern baldness (MPB) for those genetically prone. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community Finally, some real breakthroughs. A comparison of the two leading baldness treatments: PP405 versus ABS-201

106 upvotes 10 months ago

PP405 and ABS-201 are promising treatments for male pattern baldness. PP405 shows rapid hair growth in human trials, while ABS-201 shows significant regrowth in animal studies but is still in early human trials.

community 2026 Hairloss Nuclear Stack Update

83 upvotes 6 months ago

A user shared an extensive hair loss treatment regimen including dutasteride, minoxidil, tadalafil, RU58841, microneedling, and various topical and oral supplements. Responses varied, with some suggesting the regimen is excessive and others offering additional advice or expressing skepticism about its practicality and effectiveness.

learn procapil

Want to stop hormonal hair loss without touching your hormone levels? Procapil could block the enzyme doing the damage. Procapil's supplier describes it as inhibiting 5-alpha reductase at the scalp without changing hormone levels, but the published support is cell and animal work plus one small human study of a caffeine-plus-Procapil formula. It is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss treatment, and no trial has compared it with finasteride or minoxidil.

learn Baicapil

Losing hair from hormonal imbalance? Baicapil might block DHT without messing with your hormones. No published study shows that Baicapil blocks DHT — the only data on the ingredient itself is the manufacturer's own unpublished dossier, and the baicalin research behind the claim is cancer cell-line work in which the effect was explicitly independent of the androgen receptor.

learn Centella

Sensitive to hormones? A centella scalp mask may help ease hidden inflamm Centella asiatica has anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effects in animal and cell studies, but no published research has tested a centella scalp mask on the human scalp, in hormonal contexts or otherwise, and no community reports were found of one being used this way.
