This review examines biological reasons for sex-based differences in COVID-19 outcomes, noting that females exhibit stronger immune responses, potentially explaining lower severity and mortality compared to males.
research IL-15 in alopecia areata: the immune tolerance mechanistic insights and translational perspectives
This study suggests that low-dose IL-2 and IL-15 may help restore immune tolerance in alopecia areata by maintaining Treg cell function, presenting a potential new treatment strategy.
research Differential proteomics of lesional vs. non-lesional biopsies revealed non-immune mechanisms of alopecia areata
This study provided the first proteome dataset for alopecia areata, revealing novel pathways in the disease mechanisms that may lead to new therapeutic targets.
research Transcriptional profiling in alopecia areata defines immune and cell cycle control related genes within disease-specific signatures
This study found distinct gene expression profiles in alopecia areata-affected skin, suggesting T-cell mediated immune responses and unique gene profiles between different stages of the disease.

5 / 267 resultscommunity People are misunderstanding PP405. 31% response at 8 weeks is better than you think
PP405 shows promise as a hair loss treatment, with 31% experiencing increased hair density in a short trial. It may complement treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, but long-term effectiveness and safety need confirmation.
community Exploring all options - Scalp tension theory
The conversation discusses the scalp tension theory as a potential factor in hair loss, alongside DHT, inflammation, and other mechanisms. Treatments mentioned include finasteride, minoxidil, and botox injections, with some users exploring additional methods due to varying effectiveness.
community Desensitize Follicle Sensitivity to DHT?
Hair follicles cannot be desensitized to DHT like allergies; treatments focus on reducing DHT levels or blocking its effects using methods like finasteride, GT20029, or PROTACs. Topical treatments like ceterizine and BPA application are also mentioned.
community You will lose hair if your prostaglandins aren't in balance
Prostaglandin balance affects hair loss, particularly in conditions like Lichen Planopilaris, where an imbalance can lead to hair follicle damage. Treatments mentioned include prostaglandin analogs and Pioglitazone HCL, with a focus on maintaining prostaglandin equilibrium for potential hair regrowth.
community Hair Loss “Cure” for Inflammation: Topical Roflumilast
Topical roflumilast is effective for reducing inflammation in various scalp conditions like seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, and eczema, but not proven to stop scarring alopecia. Alternatives like apremilast and Vtama are also discussed for their anti-inflammatory benefits.

5 / 801 results- Tried everything and still getting bald patches? Procapil may help calm the immune response Procapil is a cosmetic ingredient complex; laboratory studies of its individual ingredients report anti-inflammatory effects, but no published clinical trial has tested it in alopecia areata or any other immune-related hair loss. Spreading bald patches should be assessed by a dermatologist.
