research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.

research Convergent Evolution of Cysteine-Rich Keratins in Hard Skin Appendages of Terrestrial Vertebrates
Cysteine-rich keratins evolved independently in mammals, reptiles, and birds for hard skin structures like hair, claws, and feathers.
research RSPO1-mutated keratinocytes from palmoplantar keratoderma display impaired differentiation, alteration of cell–cell adhesion, EMT-like phenotype and invasiveness properties: implications for squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility in patients with 46XX disorder of sexual development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.

5 / 76 resultscommunity Losing ground after 14 months of fin use and 11 months of min
A 24-year-old person who is worried about their hair loss after 14 months of taking finasteride and 11 months of minoxidil. Replies to the post suggested sticking with their current regimen, that shedding from one part may not be telogen effluvium, and that shedding is normal with these drugs and they should evaluate in two to three months.
community This serum outperformed Minoxidil in a recent study. Please debunk
A topical solution called "Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density" by The Ordinary Company, which contains several ingredients that are used in alternatives to Minoxidil and was found to have better results than 5% Minoxidil in a study. People who have tried it shared their experiences with the serum as well.
community POV: you listened to No village on tressless and stuck with it. Hey brothas, I’ve officially hit a year on fin and soon will be hitting 6 months on min. I got zero progress in my hair line but my density is much better and managable. I appreciate u guys alot.
The user "Mysterious_Aspect364" shared their progress with hair loss treatments. They have been using finasteride and minoxidil for a year and six months respectively. The replies mostly congratulate the user on their progress and suggest using a dermaroller with 1.0 needles on the hairline combined with minoxidil.
community My Telogen Effluvium journey after a bad Keratin Treatment
A user shared their experience with telogen effluvium triggered by a keratin treatment, leading to significant hair loss. They found improvement using aloe vera with rosemary, a protein and iron-rich diet, and patience.
community 15-Month Update - Dut, Min, Niz, 1.5mm Roller.
The user shared a 15-month hair loss treatment update using Dutasteride (0.5mg/day), Minoxidil (5% foam twice daily), Nizoral (1% every 3 days), and a 1.5mm derma roller (twice a month), along with a multivitamin, exercise, low sugar diet, hydration, and consistent sleep. They started seeing results after 6-9 months, with significant improvement at the 1-year mark, and apply Minoxidil the day after derma rolling.
