    GlossaryMinoxidil Sulfotransferase

    enzyme activating minoxidil for effective hair growth stimulation

    Minoxidil Sulfotransferase is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the activation of minoxidil, a common treatment for hair loss. This enzyme converts minoxidil into its active form, minoxidil sulfate, which is more effective in stimulating hair growth. The presence and activity level of this enzyme in hair follicles can influence how well a person responds to minoxidil treatment.

      community Oral Minoxidil - The Hyper-Responder Concept

      in Research/Science  4 upvotes 3 weeks ago
      Minoxidil's effectiveness varies due to genetic differences in the SULT1A1 enzyme, affecting how well it converts to its active form, minoxidil sulfate. Hyper-responders may experience rapid hair growth and increased side effects, such as pericardial effusion, even at low doses.
