research Microtubule associated protein (MAP‐2) expression defines the companion layer of the anagen hair follicle and an analogous zone in the nail unit

14 citations , October 2002 in “Journal of cutaneous pathology”

This study found that MAP-2 is intensely expressed in the companion layer of the hair follicle, suggesting its potential importance to follicle integrity and possible involvement in some types of alopecia.

research Characterization of the exocuticle a‐layer proteins of wool

34 citations , September 2007 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This study found that the outer protein layer of Merino wool is rich in sulfur-containing proteins similar to those found in both sheep wool and human hair.

research The calcium-binding protein calretinin is a marker of the companion cell layer of the human hair follicle

26 citations , June 2005 in “British Journal of Dermatology”

Calretinin identifies the companion cell layer in human hair follicles.

research Immunolocalization of junctional proteins in human hairs indicates that the membrane complex stabilizes the inner root sheath while desmosomes contact the companion layer through specific keratins

12 citations , January 2013 in “Acta Histochemica”

Junctional proteins stabilize the inner root sheath and connect the companion layer in human hair.

research Expression of novel keratin associated protein 5 genes in the cuticle layer of human hair follicles

6 citations , April 2005 in “Journal of dermatological science”

This study identified the expression sites of five KAP5 genes on human chromosome 11q13.5 in scalp skin sections but did not explore their detailed distribution within hair follicles.

community Proof DHT is not the main cause of hair loss. TRPS1 Gene and Protein might be. PP405 won’t work. AMP-303 might!

153 upvotes 6 months ago

Hair loss may be linked to the TRPS1 gene and protein, not just DHT. Amplifica's AMP-303 targets mesenchymal stem cells and shows promise in treating hair loss, unlike Pelage's PP405.

community Keratin microspheres - breakthrough

14 upvotes 2 years ago

A gel of keratin microspheres promotes hair follicle growth, showing similar effectiveness to minoxidil in mice. The treatment activates hair growth pathways and reduces inflammation, with potential applications in drug delivery for hair-related disorders.

community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia

16 upvotes 10 months ago

Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.

community DHT Isn’t the Only Factor in Hair Loss and That Might Be the Key to a Real Cure

373 upvotes 6 months ago

Hair loss involves more than just DHT, with genetic factors like TRPS affecting hair follicles. Treatments such as Amplifica's AMP-601 and AMP-303 target stem cells for potential hair growth solutions.

community How does low level laser therapy?

in Chat 5 upvotes 1 year ago

Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is debated for hair regrowth, with some users suggesting it should be combined with treatments like minoxidil and finasteride for effectiveness. Many users express skepticism about LLLT's efficacy and cost, emphasizing the need for the correct wavelength and quality devices.
