research How Does pH Fit in with Oscillating Polar Growth?
The document reviewed the role of pH in oscillating polar growth in root hairs and pollen tubes, focusing on the acid growth theory and the unclear mechanisms regulating apoplastic pH (apopH). It proposed that oscillatory polar growth, occurring every 20-40 seconds, was regulated by calcium (Ca²+), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and pH gradients. NADPH oxidases (NOXs) and type-III peroxidases (PERs) were identified as key players in ROS homeostasis, influencing cell wall dynamics. The study emphasized the role of plasma membrane H+-ATPases (AHAs) in apoplastic pH regulation, modulated by auxin, affecting cell wall loosening and growth. It highlighted the need for further understanding of these oscillations and their role in plant cell expansion, suggesting future research directions to enhance crop growth under stress conditions.
research Root Hair Growth From the pH Point of View
pH changes are crucial for root hair growth because they affect enzymes and proteins that control the cell wall and growth.

Hair loss theory suggests imbalance between Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) and Androgen Receptor (AR) activation. Proposed treatment includes upregulating VDR, downregulating AR, and improving mitochondrial health.
community My DHT levels have increased after taking 0.25mg Fin for 47 days!
A user experienced increased hair shedding and unchanged DHT levels after taking 0.25mg of finasteride for 47 days, leading them to increase the dose to 0.5mg. Others discussed varying experiences with finasteride, minoxidil, and the importance of measuring scalp DHT.
community Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community Hair loss treatment tier list by Dr Oscar Muñoz
Dr. Oscar Muñoz's hair loss treatment tier list suggests oral minoxidil and finasteride are highly effective, while topical treatments like RU58841 and microneedling are less effective. Users discuss the effectiveness of various treatments, with some favoring oral options for their practicality and higher response rates.
community Topical finasteride now the safest possible path?
Topical finasteride is considered a safer option for hair regrowth with fewer systemic side effects compared to oral finasteride. Some users report similar efficacy and side effects between topical and oral treatments, while others prefer topical due to reduced systemic exposure.
