research Recurrent functional divergence of early tetrapod keratins in amphibian toe pads and mammalian hair

19 citations , March 2013 in “Biology Letters”

This study found that the main structural proteins of tree frog toe pads, which aid in their adhesive properties, are alpha keratins that have evolutionary origins in early tetrapods.

research The cell membrane complex: Three related but different cellular cohesion components of mammalian hair fibers

15 citations , May 2010 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science”

This review discusses new developments in understanding the structure and properties of keratin fiber cell membrane complexes, without reporting new experimental results.

research Acquired morphological changes of mammalian hair scales

1 citations , June 1998 in “Journal of Forestry Research”

Mammalian hair scales change from smooth to wavy due to friction.

research Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) may modulate the timing of anagen entry in mouse hair follicles

28 citations , November 2012 in “Experimental dermatology”

This study suggests that mTORC1 may play a role in regulating the timing of hair growth cycle phases, particularly the initiation of the anagen phase.

research Mammalian keratin associated proteins (KRTAPs) subgenomes: disentangling hair diversity and adaptation to terrestrial and aquatic environments

65 citations , September 2014 in “BMC genomics”

This research found that variations in the KRTAP gene family are likely responsible for the diverse hair phenotypes seen among mammals, influenced by gene repertoire differences, expression, and evolutionary factors.

community The Health Benefits of Head Hair

in Research/Science 19 upvotes 11 months ago

Hair provides protection against head trauma, reduces skin cancer risk, helps remove heavy metals, and aids in wound healing. The conversation emphasizes the health benefits of maintaining head hair beyond cosmetic reasons.

community The end of minoxidil and fin/dut regime

106 upvotes 6 months ago

New hair loss treatments like GT20029 and PP405 could potentially replace minoxidil and finasteride, offering better results with fewer side effects. However, current treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are still effective for many, despite concerns about side effects.

community Plant-based Exosomes Efficacy Sourced from South Korea

2 upvotes 1 year ago

Plant-based exosomes for hair loss lack scientific evidence and are considered high-risk with low evidence. Combining PRF with minoxidil and finasteride is suggested as a better option.

community Qualcuno è riuscito a mantenere i capelli con la terapia del prof Marliani (dutasteride topica) ?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 1 upvotes 1 year ago

The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, specifically topical dutasteride, minoxidil, and finasteride. Users share experiences and opinions on the effectiveness and side effects of these treatments.

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

126 upvotes 3 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.
