research Study on the skin structure, hair follicle cycle, and GSDMA protein expression in Ganxi goats

1 citations , September 2025 in “Frontiers in Veterinary Science”

This study observed structural and molecular changes in Ganxi goat skin that adapt to hot and humid climates and suggested that GSDMA might play a role in hair follicle regulation and skin homeostasis, though further research is needed to confirm its function in environmental adaptation.

research Skin Appendage Proteins of Tetrapods: Building Blocks of Claws, Feathers, Hair and Other Cornified Epithelial Structures

February 2025 in “Animals”

In this review, researchers examined the molecular diversity and expression patterns of major skin appendage proteins, like keratins and EDC proteins, in tetrapods, highlighting recent findings in reptiles and birds and identifying knowledge gaps for future research.

research Matricellular Proteins in the Homeostasis, Regeneration, and Aging of Skin

2 citations , September 2023 in “International journal of molecular sciences”

This review summarizes the roles of matricellular proteins in skin stem cell niches, highlighting their contribution to stem cell fate, self-renewal, and potential implications for wound healing and aging.

research Trichohyalin-Like Proteins Have Evolutionarily Conserved Roles in the Morphogenesis of Skin Appendages

68 citations , April 2014 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This study identified a new S100 fused-type protein, scaffoldin, in reptiles and birds and suggests that SFTP-positive epithelia serve as scaffolds for the growth of various skin appendages, indicating a common evolutionary origin.

research Evolution of hard proteins in the sauropsid integument in relation to the cornification of skin derivatives in amniotes

86 citations , April 2009 in “Journal of anatomy”

This paper reviews the evolution of skin appendages and keratin-associated proteins among amniotes, proposing a model for their genetic divergence without new experimental results.

community New study suggests hair regrowth on wounded and bald skin may be possible

4 upvotes 7 years ago

Hair regrowth on wounded and bald skin may be possible by activating the sonic hedgehog gene, leading to hair regrowth in mice. The findings are promising but may not directly apply to humans.

community Minoxidil inhibits lysyl hydroxylase which is needed to produce collagen. If I take 2,5...5 mg of minoxidil every day can I cause my skin to age prematurely?

32 upvotes 1 year ago

Oral minoxidil is effective for hair loss and unlikely to significantly affect collagen synthesis, making it a safe option without causing premature skin aging. Users report positive hair regrowth without noticeable skin aging.

community Topical Finasteride that doesn’t go systematic is the cure

3 upvotes 1 year ago

Topical finasteride that doesn't penetrate the skin could potentially treat hair loss without side effects. Current challenges include finding a formulation that remains on the scalp without increasing blood levels.

community Finasteride and “anti-aging” effects

in Treatment 218 upvotes 1 year ago

Finasteride may help users look younger by suppressing DHT, affecting skin and hair. Users also emphasize skincare, sunscreen, and lifestyle for maintaining a youthful appearance.

community Blocking dht should bring it back. So why does fin mostly just hold the line?

17 upvotes 3 months ago

Finasteride mainly prevents further hair loss by blocking DHT but doesn't reverse existing damage, while minoxidil can promote regrowth by waking dormant follicles. Ketoconazole helps with inflammation, but none of these treatments can reverse fibrosis or structural changes around hair follicles.
