Knockout mice showed anemia and hair loss, suggesting other ways exist for iron absorption.
research Optimization of a Murine Infection Model With Trichophyton Mentagrophytes for Studying the Pathogenesis of Dermatophytosis
This study optimized a murine infection model using the Trichophyton mentagrophytes TIMM 2789 strain, specific to rodents, to study dermatophytosis pathogenesis. The model successfully mimicked natural infections, showing symptoms like hair follicle invasion. Host responses involved Th1, Th2, and Th17 cytokines, while the fungal SIDC gene highlighted the role of iron acquisition. Although SUB6 was not necessary for virulence, SUB5 overexpression suggested a compensatory mechanism. The study emphasizes the importance of selecting appropriate dermatophyte strains for experimental models.
research Iron Metabolism of the Skin: Recycling Versus Release
Iron is crucial for skin health, with specific proteins recycling it to support skin functions and prevent its release.

5 / 593 resultscommunity Iron deficiency, couple of months on iron supplements
The conversation is about hair loss and regrowth, with the original poster discussing iron deficiency and using iron supplements. Other users mention treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, ketoconazole shampoo, and hair care products for managing symptoms.
community How long does it to start recovering from hair loss / thinning / super brittle after starting taking huge amounts of iron supplements?
Iron supplements can help improve hair thinning and brittle skin, but recovery time varies based on individual factors like ferritin levels and absorption rates. Regular blood tests are recommended to monitor ferritin and iron levels.
community Iron supplement worked better than Minoxidil. Check your ferritin, even "normal" is low
Iron supplementation may be more effective than Minoxidil for hair loss. Checking ferritin levels is important, as both low and high levels can affect health.
community Iron, Anemia, DNA testing, and bloodwork
The conversation discusses personal experiences with hair loss and highlights the potential impact of anemia and nutrient deficiencies on hair health. Treatments mentioned include changing shampoo/conditioner, taking MSM, collagen, hyaluronic acid, astaxanthin, B12, folate, and bovine blood capsules.
community Iron D3 levels actually matter more else dht blockers wont work(yes they can keep follicle alive)
Taking finasteride alone did not stop hair loss, but adding vitamin D3 and iron supplements improved hair coverage and quality. It's important to check and address deficiencies, but caution is advised with iron supplementation without medical guidance.
