5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Unique amino acid signatures that are evolutionarily conserved distinguish simple-type, epidermal and hair keratins
This study found that keratins have evolutionarily conserved and domain-selectively enriched amino acids, which likely reflect their unique structural roles, with distinct patterns observed among epidermal, hair, and simple-type epithelial keratins.
research Keratin disorders: from gene to therapy
This review discusses keratin disorders and potential RNA interference therapeutics, reporting no new clinical findings but highlighting the promise of siRNA for future treatments.
research CD133-positive dermal papilla-derived Wnt ligands regulate postnatal hair growth
This study found that Wnt ligands from CD133-positive dermal papilla cells are essential for maintaining hair growth by supporting cell signaling between different hair follicle structures.
research Procyanidin B-2, extracted from apples, promotes hair growth: a laboratory study
This study found that procyanidin B-2 may promote hair growth by reducing expression and inhibiting translocation of PKC isozymes in murine hair epithelial cells.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity DHT Isn’t the Only Factor in Hair Loss and That Might Be the Key to a Real Cure
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 If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community Why is Minoxidil not enough for hair loss? (No fin)
Minoxidil alone is often insufficient for treating hair loss because it doesn't address the DHT-related cause. Combining it with finasteride, a DHT blocker, is generally more effective.
community Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment
The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
community I just made 60x of 5mg minoxidil sugar cubes
A user created oral minoxidil sugar cubes due to lack of prescription access, leading to a humorous discussion about unconventional and potentially unsafe methods of using minoxidil. The conversation highlights the lengths people go to for hair growth.
