research Protein loss in human hair from combination straightening and coloring treatments

18 citations , July 2015 in “Journal of cosmetic dermatology”

This study observed that combining hair dyeing with sodium hydroxide relaxers drastically increased protein loss in Caucasian virgin dark brown hair, while ammonium thioglycolate or guanidine hydroxide relaxers caused less damage.

research Development of hair treatment cream by using keratin protein

May 2017

This study found that a hair treatment cream using keratin protein from chicken feathers effectively improved damaged hair, particularly by repairing the surface layer.

research Tralokinumab Treatment in Adult Atopic Dermatitis Patients: 28‐Week Evaluation of Clinical Effectiveness, Safety, Serum Proteins and Total IgE Levels

10 citations , December 2024 in “Allergy”

This study found that tralokinumab effectively reduced the severity of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis over 28 weeks in adults, with significant improvements in clinical outcomes and biological markers, although 27.4% of patients discontinued treatment due to adverse events or ineffectiveness.

research Structural change of keratin protein in human hair by permanent waving treatment

70 citations , June 1998 in “Polymer”

This study found that permanent waving treatment partially disrupts the α-helical structure in human hair microfibrils, primarily during the initial reduction phase, rather than just affecting disulphide bonds.

research Prevention of chemically induced hair damage by means of treatment based on proteins and polysaccharides

19 citations , April 2021 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology”

This study found that a hair care treatment using integral silk proteins and linseed-derived polysaccharides effectively protected and repaired bleached and colored hair swatches, significantly improving their resistance, luster, and reducing structural damage after chemical treatments.

community Korean scientists breakthrough in hair regeneration targeting CXXC5 protein and WNT Signaling Pathway

53 upvotes 8 years ago

A potential non-invasive topical treatment targeting the WNT Signaling Pathway for hair regeneration is being researched, with positive results on human hair follicle cells. Current effective treatments for hair loss include Minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplantation.

community Whey Protein can cause hairloss in men with AGA as per a doctor

64 upvotes 9 months ago

Whey protein may slightly increase hair loss in men with androgenetic alopecia (AGA) due to elevated IGF-1 and testosterone levels, but the effect is minimal compared to treatments like finasteride and dutasteride. Many users argue that whey protein's impact on hair loss is negligible and that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is more important.

community Whey protein and hair loss

6 upvotes 9 years ago

Whey protein does not cause hair loss; concerns are likely unfounded. The user is on finasteride and minoxidil but sees no improvement, so they are phasing out these treatments while continuing to work out and use whey protein.

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

22 upvotes 1 month 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 Does whey protein and creatine aggravate hair loss?

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.

learn SCUBE3

How does SCUBE3 work on hair follicles compared to treatments like minoxidil or finasteride? Laboratory research in mice reports that SCUBE3, a protein released by dermal papilla cells, signals dormant follicles to grow through the TGF-β pathway downstream of Hedgehog; minoxidil and finasteride instead work on blood flow to the follicle and on DHT, and unlike SCUBE3 they have decades of human trial data behind them. SCUBE3 has not been tested in human clinical trials and is not available as a medicine.
Is SCUBE3 available in topical or injectable form, and how is it usually applied in studies? SCUBE3 is not available as a topical or injectable treatment and is not an approved medicine. In the published research it was delivered by microinjecting the recombinant protein into mouse skin and into cultured or grafted human follicles; there are no human clinical trials.

signaling protein that, when suppressed, may grow hair by reducing inflammation and stem cell loss

learn Follistatin

glycoprotein that inhibits TGF-β and promotes hair growth by antagonizing activin

What is follistatin, and how does it influence hair follicle growth and regeneration? Follistatin blocks activin and related growth-inhibiting proteins, which in laboratory and animal work is described as keeping hair follicles in their growth phase; the only verifiable human evidence is a single small 2011 phase 1 injection trial, so follistatin remains experimental and is not an approved hair-loss treatment.
