research Assessment of the Induction and Morphogenic Potential of Human Hair Matrix Cells and Dermal Papilla Fibroblasts Ex Vivo
Human hair matrix cells and dermal papilla fibroblasts can form early hair follicle structures but don't produce hair shafts yet.
research Keratinocytes Maintain Compartmentalization Between Dermal Papilla and Fibroblasts in 3D Heterotypic Tri-Cultures
Keratinocytes help keep hair follicle cells and skin cells separate in 3D cultures, which is important for hair growth research.
research Human iPS Cell-Derived Cell Aggregates Exhibited Dermal Papilla Cell Properties in In Vitro Three-Dimensional Assemblage Mimicking Hair Follicle Structures
Scientists made structures that look like human hair follicles using stem cells, which could help grow hair without using actual human tissue.
research Pharmacologic Inhibition of JAK-STAT Signaling Promotes Hair Growth
Blocking JAK-STAT signaling can lead to hair growth.
research Controllable Production of Transplantable Adult Human High-Passage Dermal Papilla Spheroids Using 3D Matrigel Culture
Researchers created hair-inducing human cell clusters using a 3D culture method.

A user's success with treating their hair loss using daily finasteride and minoxidil, and his experience of restored confidence. Replies to the post include discussion about the optimal dose for minoxidil, as well as warnings regarding the high dose taken by the original poster.
community Reddit’s amatorial meta analysis of 17 already avaliable hair loss prevention treatments that were found to be effective in clinical studies but are not FDA approved for MPB. PROS and CONS. (2022 Guide if Finasteride and Minoxidil are not working/ give you sides/are not enough) 77 studies linked!
The post and conversation are about hair loss treatments that have been found to be effective in studies. There are 19 different treatments mentioned, including oral minoxidil, oral dutasteride, topical finasteride, RU58841, and more. The best treatment for an individual depends on factors like availability, cost, side effects, and personal preferences.
community Ted Kaczynski had more hair than all you mfs before his death at 81
The conversation is about hair loss and the conclusion is that genetics play a significant role in hair loss, and lifestyle choices or being a well-adjusted person do not prevent male pattern baldness.
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 Possible explanation of why Dutasteride seems to be worse for some people’s hair.
The conclusion of the conversation is that some individuals may experience a condition called reactionary hypergonadism when taking dutasteride for hair loss. This condition can lead to an increase in testosterone levels, which may worsen hair loss instead of improving it.
