5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Investigations Into the Roles of Potassium Channels in Hair Growth: Studies Confirming the Presence of Several ATP-Sensitive Potassium (K+ATP) Channels in Hair Follicles and Exploring Their Mechanism of Action Using Molecular Biological, Cell Culture, Organ Culture, and Proteomic Approaches
KATP channels are crucial for hair growth, and targeting them may lead to new hair loss treatments.
research K ATP Channels and Cardiovascular Disease
K_ATP channel gene mutations are linked to heart diseases, but more research is needed to understand the connection and treatment potential.
research Novel and Established Potassium Channel Openers Stimulate Hair Growth in Vitro: Modes of Action in Hair Follicles
Potassium channel openers like minoxidil boost hair growth.
research Potassium Channel Therapeutics at the Bedside
Potassium channel openers are effective in treating heart conditions, high blood pressure, pulmonary diseases, bladder issues, and hair loss, but more selective drugs are needed.
research Hypertrichosis Induced by Minoxidil: A Case of Systemic Absorption from Scalp Occlusion

5 / 138 resultscommunity Creatine is the opposite of minoxidil !
Creatine may counteract minoxidil's hair growth effects by closing potassium ATP channels, potentially leading to hair loss in predisposed individuals. Despite anecdotal reports, there is no conclusive evidence linking creatine to hair loss.
community The mechanism of androgenic alopecia
DHT may inhibit hair growth by affecting mitochondrial function, leading to hair follicle miniaturization. Treatments like minoxidil and PP405 may promote hair growth by altering metabolic pathways, potentially counteracting DHT's effects.
community Can liver problems be associated with response to the oral minoxidil?
Liver problems may reduce the effectiveness of oral minoxidil due to impaired SULT1A1 enzyme activity, which is crucial for converting minoxidil to its active form. This reduction in enzyme function can significantly decrease the drug's effectiveness in promoting hair growth.
community Creatine Doesn’t Cause Hair Loss: Stop the BS
Creatine does not cause hair loss, despite many users reporting personal experiences of hair shedding. Scientific evidence shows no link between creatine and increased hair loss or hormone changes.
community Is this Better Than Topical Minoxidil? Topical Diazoxide
Topical diazoxide may be a promising hair regrowth treatment, especially for those who don't respond to minoxidil, as it activates potassium channels without needing sulfation. It appears safe for topical use, avoiding systemic effects seen in oral use.
