This report describes four cases of monilethrix in children and concludes that periodic inhibition of keratin synthesis, not a metabolic defect, may explain the hair abnormality.
research Locations of synthesis of hair structural proteins in human anagen follicles
This study found that intermediate filaments and matrix proteins in presumptive hair shaft cells are synthesized sequentially, identifying a new polypeptide component that changes during hair cell differentiation.
research Expression of hair-related keratins in a soft epithelium: Subpopulations of human and mouse dorsal tongue keratinocytes express keratin markers for hair-, skin- and esophageal-types of differentiation

The effectiveness of Dutasteride compared to Finasteride in treating hair loss, with evidence given such as studies and experiences, as well as discussion around whether one should switch from Finasteride to Dutasteride. There is also a discussion on post-Dutasteride syndrome.
community Best supplements to compliment finasteride protocol
The conversation discusses supplementing a finasteride regimen for hair loss with Omega 3, Vitamin D/K, Zinc, probiotics, and possibly adding oral minoxidil, magnesium, astaxanthin, and B vitamins. Users suggest testing nutrient levels before adding supplements like zinc and iron, and consider biotin, keratin, and possibly switching to dutasteride or adding topical minoxidil.
