research Activation of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Is Involved in Hair Growth-Promoting Effect of 655-nm Red Light and LED in In Vitro Culture Model
Red light and LED treatments help hair grow by activating a specific cell signaling pathway.
research In Vitro Culture Methods of Skin Cells for Optimal Skin Reconstruction by Tissue Engineering
New methods for growing skin cells can improve skin grafts by building blood vessels within them.
research Study on Organ Culture of Mouse Vibrissa Follicle In Vitro
Mouse hair follicles grow best in a special medium, especially when cut and from adult mice.
research Novel In Vitro Culture Condition Improves the Stemness of Human Dermal Stem/Progenitor Cells
New culture method keeps human skin stem cells more stem-like.

community Red Ginseng Extract Promotes the Hair Growth in Cultured Human Hair Follicles
The conversation is about hair loss treatments, specifically discussing the effectiveness of Red Ginseng Extract in promoting hair growth. Other treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Optimal topical (leave in, not shampoo) caffeine concentration. Contradictions across studies.
One study suggests a 0.2% caffeine concentration is nearly as effective as 5% minoxidil for hair loss, while other findings indicate that concentrations between 0.001% and 0.005% are more effective, with 0.001% being the most effective. There is no clear consensus on the optimal caffeine concentration for hair loss treatment.
community Surprisingly thorough study on He-Shou-Wu/Fo Ti
He Shou Wu (Fo Ti) extract was found to prolong the hair growth phase, inhibit 5-alpha-reductase (like finasteride), reduce androgen receptors, and increase growth factors, potentially outperforming minoxidil in recovering hair follicle size after DHT exposure. Two compounds, emodin and TSG, are identified as responsible for these effects and warrant further investigation.
community Looks like a real cure to the root of baldness (DHT-induced senescence) was proven earlier this year
A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.
