research Melanocortins in fibroblast biology – current update and future perspective for dermatology

32 citations , October 2004 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This study found that α-MSH acts as a modulator of inflammatory and fibrogenic responses in human fibroblastic skin cells, indicating potential therapeutic options for fibrotic skin disorders and inflammatory diseases of the hair follicle.

research Melanocortin receptors in fibroblastic cell types of the skin –in vitro and in vivo expression and functional relevance

1 citations , September 2004 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This study found that α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone may modulate inflammation in skin connective tissue by inhibiting proinflammatory effects in fibroblasts.

research Impacts of iron on phosphate starvation-induced root hair growth in Arabidopsis

4 citations , May 2021

This study found that iron availability influences root hair growth under phosphate starvation by affecting auxin distribution, phosphate starvation-responsive genes, and vesicle trafficking.

research Mast-cell driven dermal white adipose tissue remodeling amplifies inflammation and fibrosis in atopic dermatitis

January 2026

In this study, researchers used a mouse model to identify an adipocyte-to-fibroblast conversion pathway that promotes mast-cell recruitment and dermal fibrosis in atopic dermatitis, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach to block this process and reduce inflammation and fibrosis.

research RSL4 regulatory network acts as an early driver of root hair growth at low temperature in Arabidopsis thaliana

April 2024 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)”

In this study, researchers identified a gene regulatory network in Arabidopsis that controls root hair growth under low-temperature conditions, revealing specific transcription factors and downstream targets that contribute to this growth response despite overall plant development being halted.

community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?

140 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
