research In vitroFibre production and protein deposition in secondary hair follicles of the cashmere and angora goat

March 1994 in “Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Production”

This study investigated hair fibre growth in Angora and Cashmere goats, finding differences in growth rates and seasonal dependencies, and examined the effects of prolactin and melatonin on protein deposition in hair follicles.

research Exploring Reference Values for Hair Cortisol: Hair Weight Versus Hair Protein

4 citations , October 2020 in “Therapeutic drug monitoring”

In this study, researchers found that targeting a tacrolimus trough level of 4–7 ng/mL after liver transplantation resulted in comparable graft and patient survival rates to higher levels, while improving liver and kidney function markers.

research BIOCHEMICAL AND HISTOCHEMICAL STUDIES ON WHITE, BROWN AND BLACK SKIN REGIONS OF THE GUINEA PIG

2 citations , January 1973 in “ACTA HISTOCHEMICA ET CYTOCHEMICA”

In this study, the brown skin of guinea pigs exhibited higher levels of certain biochemical markers related to melanogenesis compared to black and white skin, with distinct differences in ascorbic acid utilization and protein concentrations observed between regions.

research Investigation of the role of biotin in the regulation of wool growth in sheep hair follicle cultured in vitro

January 2007

In this study, biotin supplementation was found to significantly increase wool follicle viability and metabolic activity in vitro, with the highest effects observed at 0.5 mg L⁻¹ concentration.

community Hi-c5 protein, explains why the mechanical tension theory may be correct.

22 upvotes 3 weeks ago

Hair loss may be influenced by mechanical tension and inflammation, with the hi-c5 protein amplifying androgen effects, leading to follicle miniaturization. Treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and scalp massages are suggested to manage hair loss.

community Published in Nature: Osteopontin, a protein involved in the growth of hair on moles could be the key to our troubles.

13 upvotes 3 years ago

Osteopontin, a protein involved in hair growth on moles, may help with hair loss. However, it is also linked to Alzheimer's, cancer, and bone development, so caution is advised.

79 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses whether whey protein and creatine worsen hair loss. Some users report hair loss with creatine use, while others do not; opinions on whey protein's effects are mixed. Treatments mentioned include PRP, minoxidil, and finasteride.

community Napkin math: are we using 100x more topical finasteride than necessary?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 4 upvotes 4 months ago

Topical finasteride concentrations are likely much higher than necessary for effective follicular DHT suppression, with current standards being 100-1000 times above the theoretical minimum. Lower concentrations (0.001-0.0025%) might still work locally while minimizing systemic exposure.

community Almost 7 months on topical fin/min- not seeing much benefit

12 upvotes 9 months ago

A 39-year-old user has been using topical 0.3% finasteride with 6% minoxidil for almost 7 months without seeing significant improvement in hair regrowth. They are considering switching to a gel with higher minoxidil concentration, adding retinoic acid, or trying topical dutasteride, while others suggest returning to 5% minoxidil foam, adding oral finasteride, or exploring microneedling and lifestyle changes.
