research The senescence-like activity of BMS-470539 is associated with anti-fibrotic actions in models of dermal fibrosis

September 2025 in “Arthritis Research & Therapy”

In this study, researchers found that the compound BMS-470539 induced a senescence-like state in fibroblasts from systemic sclerosis patients, reducing fibrosis-associated markers in vitro and decreasing skin thickness in a mouse model of skin fibrosis, suggesting a novel therapeutic strategy for managing fibroblast-driven diseases.

community Reducing Fibrosis in Hair Loss: Topical Pirfenidone

59 upvotes 5 months ago

Topical pirfenidone is highlighted as an effective anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic treatment for hair loss, particularly in addressing perifollicular fibrosis, which may enhance the effectiveness of standard treatments like finasteride and minoxidil. The user also uses calcipotriol, MCT oil, ciclopirox shampoo, and benzoyl peroxide shampoo as part of their regimen.

community Topical caffeine as an adjunct treatment. I think this should be considered.

4 upvotes 3 years ago

Topical caffeine is suggested as a beneficial adjunct treatment for hair growth due to its anti-fibrotic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and other properties. There is skepticism about its effectiveness, especially at low concentrations like in Alpecin liquid.
