research Sulfotransferases, Sulfatases, and Formylglycine-Generating Enzymes: A Sulfation Fascination
The document concludes that understanding sulfation biology is crucial for creating treatments due to its importance in biological functions and disease.
research Sulfation of Minoxidil by Multiple Human Cytosolic Sulfotransferases
Minoxidil breakdown varies by enzymes, affecting hair loss treatment effectiveness.
research Sulfation of Minoxidil by Human Platelet Sulfotransferase
Human platelets change minoxidil to minoxidil sulfate, helping blood vessels widen.
research Oral Minoxidil Bio-Activation by Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath Cell Sulfotransferase Enzymes Predicts Clinical Efficacy in Female Pattern Hair Loss
Minoxidil activation by hair enzymes predicts treatment success for female hair loss.
research Characterization of Follicular Minoxidil Sulfotransferase Activity in a Cohort of Pattern Hair Loss Patients from the Indian Subcontinent
About 41% of Indian hair loss patients have low enzyme activity that affects hair loss treatment effectiveness, with men affected more than women. Testing for this can guide treatment.

5 / 210 resultscommunity Minoxidil: Sulfotransferase Enzyme booster AVAILABLE NOW
A new product, Minoxidil booster, which enhances sulfotransferase enzyme activity in the scalp, is now available. The user has started using this product, applied before Minoxidil, to improve their hair loss treatment results.
community What Determines Sulfotransferase Enzyme Levels In The Body?
Some people have low sulfotransferase enzyme levels, affecting their response to minoxidil. Lifestyle factors, genetics, and diet, like MSM intake, might influence these enzyme levels.
community I literally can’t find any evidence of sulfotransferase being upregulated by microneedling or retinoids like tretinoin
Microneedling and tretinoin may enhance minoxidil absorption for hair loss, but evidence on their effectiveness is limited. Iron supplements and broccoli sprouts are suggested for enzyme activation, but their impact on hair is unclear.
community Minoxidil + Tretinoin if you suspect you have low sulfotransferase enzyme activity
Minoxidil may not be effective due to low sulfotransferase activity, and the user considers adding tretinoin to the regimen. They are unsure about the timing and combination with microneedling.
community Tretinoin vs. micro-needling: what increases sulfotransferase activity more?
Tretinoin and microneedling both enhance hair growth through different mechanisms, with microneedling being considered safe for long-term use. Optimal microneedling needle length varies, but 0.8 mm is suggested for hair growth, and a Dermastamp is recommended to avoid skin damage.
