5 / 1000+ results![Procyanidin B‐3, isolated from barley and identified as a hair‐growth stimulant, has the potential to counteract inhibitory regulation by TGF‐β1](/images/research/d275638b-8446-4aee-90bc-4bcf86c4b1e0/small/27223.jpg)
research Procyanidin B‐3, isolated from barley and identified as a hair‐growth stimulant, has the potential to counteract inhibitory regulation by TGF‐β1
Barley extract, specifically procyanidin B-3, can promote hair growth and counteract growth inhibition.
![Novel ALK5 inhibitor TP0427736 reduces TGF-β induced growth inhibition in human outer root sheath cells and elongates anagen phase in mouse hair follicles](/images/research/b0717b18-8340-4068-a985-4d164261d584/small/13873.jpg)
research Novel ALK5 inhibitor TP0427736 reduces TGF-β induced growth inhibition in human outer root sheath cells and elongates anagen phase in mouse hair follicles
TP0427736 may help treat hair loss by blocking a specific protein and promoting hair growth.
![Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells](/images/research/a48557bd-260b-4246-86fd-b2bef9893588/small/26110.jpg)
research Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells
TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.

research CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ Regulatory Tregs inhibit fibrocyte recruitment and fibrosis via suppression of FGF-9 production in the TGF-β1 exposed murine lung
Special immune cells called Tregs can help prevent lung scarring by blocking a specific growth factor.

5 / 42 resultscommunity My hairloss journey. Minox at 34, transplant at 38. No Finasteride
A person started using Minoxidil at 34 and had a hair transplant at 38, avoiding a straight hairline for a natural look and had 2200 grafts. They began taking Finasteride as a precaution, but Minoxidil did most of the work.
community 4 Months fin 5 months min 3m oral min results
A user's progress in treating their hair loss with finasteride, minoxidil and oral minoxidil, as well as microneedling. Replies to the post have encouraged the user that they are seeing regrowth from the treatments.
community Dutasteride Destroying Hairline vs Just Shedding — 3 week pictures with rapid temple recession
A user's experience with Dutasteride causing rapid hair loss and temple recession over 3 weeks, with other users offering advice about the potential causes of this.
community The Effect of Intradermal Botox on Androgenetic Alopecia and Its Possible Mechanism (Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology (2020)
Intradermal botulinum toxin (BTX) injections effectively treat androgenetic alopecia (AGA) by inhibiting TGF-β1 secretion from hair follicles. Further research and long-term follow-up are needed to confirm these findings.
community Pyrilutamide update: three months
A user's 3-month experience with pyrilutamide to reduce hair shedding, and how it may not be strong enough to stop the thinning of their hairline. Other users mentioned the effectiveness of minoxidil and finasteride for treating hair loss.
