research Minoxidil in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Minoxidil helps treat pattern hair loss in both men and women.
research Simultaneous Effects of Tocopheryl Polyethylene Glycol Succinate on Local Hair Growth Promotion and Systemic Absorption of Topically Applied Minoxidil in a Mouse Model
Adding a small amount of TPGS to minoxidil can help hair growth, but too much TPGS reduces this effect and increases minoxidil in the blood.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Comparative Evaluation of the Clinical Efficacy of PRP Therapy, Minoxidil, and Their Combination with Immunohistochemical Study of the Dynamics of Cell Proliferation in the Treatment of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP therapy and minoxidil combo works best for male hair loss.
research Mechanism of Action of Minoxidil in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia Is Likely Mediated by Mitochondrial Adenosine Triphosphate Synthase-Induced Stem Cell Differentiation
Minoxidil helps hair growth by promoting stem cell differentiation through increased ATP synthase activity.
research Minoxidil Sulfate Is the Active Metabolite That Stimulates Hair Follicles
Minoxidil sulfate stimulates hair growth.
research Role of Cholesterol Sulfate in Epidermal Structure and Function: Lessons from X-Linked Ichthyosis
Cholesterol sulfate buildup due to a genetic mutation disrupts the skin barrier, leading to the scaling skin seen in X-linked ichthyosis.
research Steroid Sulfatase: Molecular Biology, Regulation, and Inhibition
The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research Sulphation Catalyzed by the Human Cytosolic Sulphotransferases: Chemical Defense or Molecular Terrorism?
Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.

Minoxidil does not work to inhibit lysyl hydroxylases in newborn mouse lungs.
research Role Of Oral Minoxidil In The Treatment Of Androgenetic Alopecia
Low-dose oral minoxidil can help treat male and female pattern hair loss, especially in those who can't use topical treatments or have heart health issues.
research The Biology and Genomics of Human Hair Follicles: A Focus on Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in Androgenetic Alopecia is caused by genetics, aging, and lifestyle, leading to hair follicle shrinkage and related health risks.
research Clinical Utility and Validity of Minoxidil Response Testing in Androgenetic Alopecia
Minoxidil response testing helps treat hair loss effectively and safely.
research Minoxidil: A Comprehensive Review
Minoxidil effectively treats hair loss, especially androgenetic alopecia, but needs more research for better understanding.
research Safety of Low-Dose Oral Minoxidil Treatment for Hair Loss: A Systematic Review and Pooled Analysis of Individual Patient Data
Low-dose oral minoxidil is a safe treatment for hair loss, with the main side effect being excessive hair growth. Other side effects like foot swelling, low blood pressure when standing, and heart rate changes are rare.
research Sublingual Minoxidil for the Treatment of Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 1B Clinical Trial
Sublingual minoxidil safely promotes hair growth.
research Use of Minoxidil Sulfate Versus Minoxidil Base in Androgenetic Alopecia Treatment: Friend or Foe?
Minoxidil base is preferred for hair loss treatment, but minoxidil sulfate may be an alternative for unresponsive patients.
research Simultaneous Determination of Minoxidil and Minoxidil Sulfate by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with UV Detection and Its Applications
The study developed a method to detect minoxidil and its sulfate form, found that minoxidil sulfate is temperature-sensitive, and identified a way to potentially increase its stability for hair loss treatment.
research Management of Endocrine Disease: Hyperandrogenic States in Women - Pitfalls in Laboratory Diagnosis
Diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women is complex and requires accurate testing methods and consideration of SHBG levels.
