research Transcriptomics analysis reveals molecular alterations underpinning spaceflight dermatology
Spaceflight can harm skin health by altering gene expression, affecting DNA, mitochondria, and skin barriers.
research Investigation of the molecular alterations associated with the efficacy of microneedling therapy and its potential applications in medical and dental practices
Microneedling helps heal and rejuvenate skin and gums effectively.
research Transcriptomics analysis reveals molecular alterations underpinning spaceflight dermatology
Spaceflight can harm skin health, but organisms can adapt after returning to Earth.
research Study of gene expression alteration in male androgenetic alopecia: evidence of predominant molecular signalling pathways
Hair loss involves immune responses, inflammation, and disrupted signaling pathways.
research Keratinocyte biology and pathology

5 / 716 resultscommunity A concise, easy-to-understand post on Androgenic Alopecia theory and its practical applications
The mechanism of Androgenic Alopecia and practical applications of treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, dermarolling, scalp massages, anti-fungals, progesterone, estrogen, PPAR-γ activators, reducing oxidative stress, and scalp exercises. It explains why DHT is important in AA and how other factors might be involved such as hypoxia, increased DKK-1 expression, morphological changes to the scalp, skull growth during childhood/puberty, and blood flow.
community A systematic bro-science review of DHT, 5AR, neurosteroids, sexual health and 5AR inhibitors
Hair loss treatments, specifically 5AR inhibitors, can impact neurosteroids and sexual health. The effects of topical fin/dut on tissue-specific DHT levels are unclear.
community Going to try and reverse MPB naturally.
A user is trying to reverse male pattern baldness (MPB) naturally by taking high doses of Vitamin D, improving diet, exercising, reducing stress, and other lifestyle changes, but plans to use finasteride if no results are seen in 60 days. Other users are skeptical, advising medical treatments like finasteride and warning against potential vitamin D overdose and the ineffectiveness of natural remedies for genetic hair loss.
community Surprisingly thorough study on He-Shou-Wu/Fo Ti
He Shou Wu (Fo Ti) extract was found to prolong the hair growth phase, inhibit 5-alpha-reductase (like finasteride), reduce androgen receptors, and increase growth factors, potentially outperforming minoxidil in recovering hair follicle size after DHT exposure. Two compounds, emodin and TSG, are identified as responsible for these effects and warrant further investigation.
community Dutasteride only might be the best ROI
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride can improve hair regrowth with fewer side effects for some users. Concerns about shedding, lack of improvement, and the long-term safety of oral minoxidil remain.
