research Transcriptome Meta-Analysis Confirms the Hidradenitis Suppurativa Pathogenic Triad: Upregulated Inflammation, Altered Epithelial Organization, and Dysregulated Metabolic Signaling

13 citations , September 2022 in “Biomolecules”

This study found that specific gene upregulations and mutations in hidradenitis suppurativa skin support the role of inflammation, altered epithelial differentiation, and metabolism dysregulation in the disease's pathogenesis.

research Effective amelioration of hepatic inflammation and insulin response in high fat diet-fed rats via regulating AKT/mTOR signaling: Role of Lepidium sativum seed extracts

14 citations , October 2020 in “Journal of ethnopharmacology”

This study found that both ethanol and aqueous extracts of Lepidium sativum seeds improved insulin signaling and reduced obesity-related metabolic changes in high-fat diet-fed rats, suggesting potential as a dietary supplement.

research Targeting Cutaneous Cannabinoid Signaling in Inflammation - A “High”-way to Heal?

28 citations , January 2017 in “EBioMedicine”

This study discusses potential anti-inflammatory roles of endocannabinoid system modulation and phytocannabinoids in skin health, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for further clinical exploration.

research Inhibition of JAK-STAT Signaling with Baricitinib Reduces Inflammation and Improves Cellular Homeostasis in Progeria Cells

51 citations , October 2019 in “Cells”

This study reported that inhibiting the JAK-STAT pathway with baricitinib restored cellular homeostasis, delayed senescence, and reduced proinflammatory markers in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome cell models.

research Sonic Hedgehog signalling in the regulation of barrier tissue homeostasis and inflammation

23 citations , October 2021 in “FEBS Journal”

This review examines the role of Sonic Hedgehog signaling in the maintenance and repair of skin and lung barriers, and its influence on inflammation and atopic diseases; it presents no new clinical findings.

community Hair Loss “Cure” for Inflammation: Topical Roflumilast

in Research/Science 32 upvotes 8 months ago

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.

community Gut microbiome imbalances linked to scalp inflammation and hair follicle impact

in Technology 243 upvotes 4 months ago

Gut microbiome imbalances can cause scalp inflammation and affect hair follicles, potentially leading to hair loss. Treatments include finasteride, peptides like BPC-157, TB-500, KPV, and lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise.

community DHT Itch and Oily Scalp Explained (and how to fix it)

90 upvotes 3 months ago

Malassezia overgrowth can worsen oily scalp and inflammation, contributing to hair loss. Treatments include antifungal shampoos, C6/C8 MCT oil, low-dose isotretinoin, finasteride, and dutasteride.

community What if DHT is not the vilan.

13 upvotes 5 years ago

Hair loss may be influenced more by inflammation, microbiome imbalances, and gut health than DHT. Treatments discussed include minoxidil, finasteride, RU58841, fecal microbiota transplants, and JAK inhibitors.

community The 'DHT itch' is real - notes from a casual bodybuilder

in Chat 115 upvotes 2 years ago

The "DHT itch" is real and likely due to inflammation at the hair follicle, exacerbated by increased testosterone or androgens. Treatments mentioned include dutasteride, minoxidil, finasteride, and various topical solutions.

learn sh-Polypeptide-7

How does sh-Polypeptide-7 help stimulate hair follicle activity or reduce scalp inflammation? sh-Polypeptide-7 is the INCI name for a lab-made form of human growth hormone (somatotropin) — not EGF, which is sh-Oligopeptide-1. Growth hormone and IGF-1 signalling is documented in hair follicle biology, but there is no published human trial of sh-Polypeptide-7 applied to the scalp for hair growth or scalp inflammation.

learn Osteopontin

signaling protein that, when suppressed, may grow hair by reducing inflammation and stem cell loss

learn Tofacitinib

a JAK inhibitor for alopecia areata and other autoimmune conditions

learn Stem Cell Factor

learn Follistatin

glycoprotein that inhibits TGF-β and promotes hair growth by antagonizing activin

learn Neem Oil

natural substance from Neem tree with medicinal and pesticidal properties

learn Cetirizine

How does cetirizine reduce inflammation linked to hair loss? Cetirizine is proposed to lower prostaglandin D2 and raise prostaglandin E2 around hair follicles; three small trials of a compounded 1% topical report modest increases in hair density and shaft thickness, with minoxidil doing better head-to-head. Topical cetirizine is off-label and unapproved for hair loss, and the evidence is too thin to call it effective or safe.

learn Omega 3

Did you know omega-3 can lower scalp inflammation that leads to sudden hair loss? Omega-3 can reduce scalp inflammation, potentially preventing sudden hair loss.

learn Ginkgo biloba

Can ginkgo biloba reduce scalp inflammation that contributes to hair loss? Ginkgo biloba may help reduce scalp inflammation, potentially benefiting hair loss.

learn Hydrocortisone

Is hydrocortisone effective for stopping inflammation that blocks hair growth? Sources describe hydrocortisone as a short-course treatment for scalp inflammation such as seborrhoeic dermatitis or eczema, and no verified trial tests it as a hair-regrowth treatment; the corticosteroids used for alopecia areata are the potent prescription ones, and prolonged use of any topical steroid on the scalp risks skin thinning.
