5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Performance of an interferon-γ release assay-based test for cell-mediated immunity to SARS-CoV-2
In this study, researchers reported that a newly developed interferon-γ release assay for cell-mediated immunity to SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid peptides demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity, making it a robust tool for routine diagnostic tests and potentially useful in predicting clinical outcomes after pathogen re-exposure.
research 0037 Inflammatory implications in female pattern hair loss: unraveling B cell-related immune activation through comparative transcriptome profiling
Immune system changes may contribute to female pattern hair loss.
research Effect of the multifunctional cosmetic ingredient sphinganine on hair loss in men and women with diffuse hair reduction
This study found that sphinganine may improve scalp health, hair quality, and reduce hair loss in males, potentially due to increased antimicrobial peptide levels and inhibition of 5-α-reductase.
research Malt1 Protease Is Critical in Maintaining Function of Regulatory T Cells and May Be a Therapeutic Target for Antitumor Immunity
This study found that Malt1, particularly its protease activity, plays a crucial role in maintaining Treg cell function and homeostasis, with its inactivation leading to autoimmune diseases and altered immune responses in mice.

5 / 19 resultscommunity Dutasteride Immunity? DHT increasing on Dutasteride.
Dutasteride did not lower DHT levels as expected for the user, despite switching from finasteride and stopping creatine. The user also started taking oral minoxidil, which might be helping with hair loss.
community The new growth in hair loss research: With increasing evidence of its impact on mental health, scientists are pushing forward with breakthroughs on balding. Later this year, scientists will launch one of the first ever clinical trials with hair follicles grown entirely from stem cells.
Hair loss impacts mental health, with treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and stem cell transplants discussed. There is hope for future breakthroughs, but current treatments are limited, and awareness is lacking.
community My hair loss journey, natural DHT blocker first then Finasteride 1mg every day.
The user experienced hair regrowth and stopped hair loss using a natural DHT blocker and later finasteride, despite initial side effects. They plan to add topical minoxidil to address remaining thin spots.
community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?
The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits
Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.
