research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Novel Enzymatic Assay Predicts Minoxidil Response in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
New test predicts if hair loss treatment will work.
research Comparison of Minoxidil Sulfotransferase Activity Between Scalp Hair, Eyebrows, and Eyelashes: Implication for Minoxidil Efficacy for Off-Label Use
Minoxidil is less effective on eyebrows and eyelashes than scalp hair because these areas have lower enzyme activity needed to activate the drug.
research Minoxidil Sulfotransferase Enzymatical Activity in Plants: A Novel Paradigm in Increasing Minoxidil Response in Androgenetic Alopecia
Some plants like spinach, broccoli, and matcha may boost the effectiveness of the hair growth drug minoxidil.
research Minoxidil Sulfotransferase Enzyme (SULT1A1) Genetic Variants Predict Response to Oral Minoxidil Treatment for Female Pattern Hair Loss
Genetic variants affect minoxidil hair loss treatment success.

community Genetic testing to determine individualized hairloss treatment?
A user discusses a company, Roots by Genetic Arts, that offers a genetic test for hair loss to create personalized treatments, and is curious about its legitimacy and the science behind it. The company tests 16 genes related to hair loss and compounds a topical treatment based on the results.
community Minoxidil Response Test - worth it?
The conversation discusses the use of topical minoxidil for hair loss and the potential benefits of taking a Minoxidil Response Test to determine enzyme activity related to its effectiveness. Some users have considered or tried alternatives like oral minoxidil or tretinoin, with mixed experiences regarding side effects and effectiveness.
community MinoxiBoost - SULT1A1 Enzyme booster journey
The user has tried topical Minoxidil and oral Minoxidil for beard and scalp hair growth with minimal results, and has been on Finasteride for 7 months with stabilized scalp hair but no facial hair improvement. They are considering using a SULT1A1 enzyme booster to enhance results and are questioning its effectiveness without concurrent topical Minoxidil application.
