Methylated flavonoids may effectively reduce depression and inflammation caused by finasteride.
research Addressing Androgenetic Alopecia: A Complex Disorder with a Multilateral Treatment Strategy
Treating hair loss effectively may require a multi-sided approach, using different treatments together, and topical treatments could be more effective and safer than oral ones.
research Hair Growth Promoting Effects of 15-Hydroxyprostaglandin Dehydrogenase Inhibitor in Human Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells
The inhibitor DPP can promote hair growth.
research Establishment and Characterization of Matched Immortalized Human Frontal and Occipital Scalp Dermal Papilla Cell Lines from Androgenetic Alopecia
Scientists created cell lines from balding patients and found that cells from the front of the scalp are more affected by hormones that cause hair loss than those from the back.
research Effects of Oxytocin on the Hair Growth Ability of Dermal Papilla Cells
Oxytocin may help hair grow by increasing hair growth-related genes and factors.
research SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination in Androgen Sensitive Phenotypes – A Study on Associated Factors for SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination and Its Adverse Effects Among Androgenetic Alopecia and Benign Prostate Hyperplasia Patients
