research LHX2 is a direct NF-κB target gene that promotes primary hair follicle placode down-growth

43 citations , January 2016 in “Development”

This study identified a critical NF-κB-LHX2-TGFβ2 signaling pathway essential for primary hair follicle development in mice, revealing new insights into the underlying mechanisms of morphogenesis.

research Identification of Ectodysplasin Target Genes Reveals the Involvement of Chemokines in Hair Development

48 citations , January 2012 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology”

This study identified chemokine receptor ligands cxcl10 and cxcl11 as new hair-specific transcriptional targets of the Eda pathway, suggesting chemokine signaling plays a role in primary hair follicle patterning.

research Sostdc1 defines the size and number of skin appendage placodes

56 citations , February 2012 in “Developmental biology”

This study found that the absence of Sostdc1 in mice alters mammary gland and hair follicle development, particularly by increasing vibrissae numbers and causing unusual nipple-like structures.

research Ectodysplasin Signaling in Cutaneous Appendage Development: Dose, Duration, and Diversity

9 citations , March 2009 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology”

This study reports that the maintenance and morphogenesis of skin appendages rely on both the dose and duration of ectodysplasin signaling.

research Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling Regulates Postnatal Hair Follicle Differentiation and Cycling

65 citations , September 2004 in “The American journal of pathology”

This study found that overexpressing the BMP inhibitor Noggin in transgenic mice led to a significant loss of nontylotrich hair follicles, suggesting a critical role for BMP signaling in hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling.

community Bryan Johnson and his Hair routine, what's the point?

in Hair Systems 24 upvotes 5 months ago

Dutasteride and high-dose Minoxidil are the primary treatments maintaining hair, with additional supplements and therapies like red light offering minimal extra benefit. The discussion criticizes promoting expensive hair care products when basic medications are doing most of the work.

community Primary Care Provider told me to not be concerned and just take biotin.

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 2 upvotes 1 year ago

A 19-year-old was advised by their primary care provider to take biotin for hair loss instead of minoxidil or finasteride due to potential side effects and age concerns. The user is considering seeking a second opinion from a dermatologist.

community Testosterone and hair loss seeming irrelevance

82 upvotes 3 years ago

The conversation is about the role of testosterone in hair loss and the effectiveness of different treatments. The conclusion is that DHT is the main culprit for hair loss, and finasteride has been proven to work long-term in maintaining and regrowing hair. Testosterone may have a minor effect, but it is not the primary cause of hair loss.

community GT20029 China Phase II Trial For AGA Reached Primary Endpoint

133 upvotes 2 years ago

The GT20029 tincture, a topical androgen receptor degrader, showed significant hair growth and good safety in a China Phase II trial for male androgenetic alopecia (AGA), with the 1% dose twice weekly identified as optimal. The company plans to initiate Phase III trials in China and Phase II in the U.S., and the treatment also shows promise for acne.

community Other factors involved then DHT/5aR

5 upvotes 3 months ago

DHT is the primary cause of hair loss, but factors like diet, stress, and lifestyle can influence its severity. Treatments like finasteride and dutasteride target DHT, while maintaining overall health is also important.
