research Corneal epithelial‐like transdifferentiation of hair follicle stem cells is mediated by pax6 and β‐catenin/Lef‐1

20 citations , April 2009 in “Cell Biology International”

This study demonstrates that bulge KSCs from hair follicles can transdifferentiate into corneal epithelial-like cells under specific conditions, which could support bioengineered cornea development.

research Molecular cloning and characterization analysis of LEF-1 gene from Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goat

1 citations , October 2010 in “2010 3rd International Conference on Biomedical Engineering and Informatics”

This study successfully cloned and characterized the LEF-1 gene from Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats, potentially aiding efforts to enhance cashmere production through genetic modification.

research Tcf3 and Lef1 regulate lineage differentiation of multipotent stem cells in skin

555 citations , July 2001 in “Genes & Development”

This study found that Tcf3 and Lef1 differently regulate cell differentiation in multipotent skin stem cells, with Tcf3 promoting follicle-like features and Lef1, when modified, promoting sebocyte differentiation.

Lef1 Contributes to the Differentiation of Bulge Stem Cells by Nuclear Translocation and Cross-Talk with the Notch Signaling Pathway

research Lef1 Contributes to the Differentiation of Bulge Stem Cells by Nuclear Translocation and Cross-Talk with the Notch Signaling Pathway

57 citations , January 2013 in “International Journal of Medical Sciences”

This study reports that Lef1 plays a crucial role in promoting bulge stem cell differentiation towards hair fate by activating β-catenin and downstream signaling pathways during hair follicle development.

Lymphoid Enhancer-Binding Factor-1 Interacts with the DNA-Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor

research Lymphoid Enhancer-binding Factor-1 (LEF1) Interacts with the DNA-binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor

37 citations , April 2011 in “Journal of Biological Chemistry”

This study discovered a novel interaction between the vitamin D receptor and LEF1, essential for normal Wnt signaling in keratinocytes, which is crucial for regular hair cycling.

community Prolactin the Cause of Hair Loss? ABS-201 the Cure?

29 upvotes 2 months ago

Prolactin may contribute to hair loss, but targeting its receptor won't cure androgenetic alopecia. ABS-201 could be a useful alternative or adjuvant therapy, similar to JAK inhibitors, but not more effective than HMI-115.

community Topical Dutasteride (Switching from Oral) Proven results

23 upvotes 5 years ago

Switching from oral to topical dutasteride may reduce side effects like anxiety and depression while maintaining hair health. Combining it with minoxidil, Nizoral, and dermarolling could be effective for hair preservation.

community The Real Cause Of Androgenetic Alopecia

675 upvotes 1 year ago

Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.

community Amplifica: Hope or Cope? A Review of Their Pipeline

9 upvotes 1 month ago

Amplifica's AMP-303 showed a modest increase in hair growth, but results were inconsistent and potentially misleading. Hyaluronic acid and osteopontin are being explored for hair growth, with varying effects on different hair types and conditions.

community Everything you ever wanted to know about Pelage Pharma's PP405: how it works and what to expect

126 upvotes 2 months ago

PP405 may encourage earlier hair growth and slightly increase visible hair count but does not reverse hair follicle miniaturization in male pattern baldness. It does not address damage to the dermal papilla or broken Wnt signaling.
