research Transgenic mice provide new insights into the role of TGF-alpha during epidermal development and differentiation.

409 citations , May 1991 in “Genes & Development”

This study observed that overexpression of TGF-alpha in transgenic mice led to thicker epidermis and stunted hair growth, particularly in regions with normally thick skin and low hair density.

research Mice with a null mutation of the TGFα gene have abnormal skin architecture, wavy hair, and curly whiskers and often develop corneal inflammation

578 citations , April 1993 in “Cell”

This study found that mice with a disrupted TGFα gene display a curly whisker-coat phenotype, similar to waved-1 mice, suggesting TGFα's crucial role in skin architecture and hair development.

research Transforming growth factor-alpha immunoreactivity during induced hair follicle growth cycles in sheep and ferrets.

6 citations , April 1996 in “Journal of histochemistry and cytochemistry/The journal of histochemistry and cytochemistry”

This study suggests that TGF-alpha may function in an autocrine or juxtacrine manner rather than promoting cell proliferation during hair growth cycles in ferrets and sheep.

research The role of integrin alphavbeta6 in impaired wound healing and hair follicle regeneration

January 2010

This study found that αvβ6 integrin inhibits keratinocyte proliferation during wound healing and hair regeneration, suggesting its downregulation may enhance recovery and influence epidermal stem cell behavior.

research 1407 Mechanical force activation of TGF-β signaling controls hair follicle regression

April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This study found that the dermal sheath smooth muscle regulates hair follicle progenitor cell death during hair regression through mechanical signaling of the TGF-β pathway.

community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia

16 upvotes 9 months ago

Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.

community Rejux-3x - the copper peptide combo that tressless overlooks.

1 upvotes 5 months ago

Rejuv-3X, a topical blend with GHK-Cu, AHK-Cu, and JXL-089, is used for hair loss, offering a targeted option without finasteride's side effects. The user plans to combine it with microneedling for enhanced results.

community Update about Hair Follicle Glucose Metabolism: New Clinical Data Collection with Ex-President Of American Board Of Hair Restoration Surgery.

39 upvotes 2 years ago

David Barreto shared that a London-based research group is conducting a 12-month trial for a new nutraceutical treatment for pattern hair loss, designed with Dr. Carlos Puig. The trial aims to provide robust data, with results expected in 1-2 years, potentially representing a significant advancement since finasteride’s introduction in 1997.

community Reducing Fibrosis in Hair Loss: Topical Pirfenidone

59 upvotes 5 months ago

Topical pirfenidone is highlighted as an effective anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic treatment for hair loss, particularly in addressing perifollicular fibrosis, which may enhance the effectiveness of standard treatments like finasteride and minoxidil. The user also uses calcipotriol, MCT oil, ciclopirox shampoo, and benzoyl peroxide shampoo as part of their regimen.

community Anti-oxidants that reverse hairloss?

86 upvotes 5 years ago

Resveratrol and fisetin, found in red wine and strawberries, may promote hair growth by affecting hair follicle cells. Users discuss various treatments, including natural remedies like saw palmetto and topical applications, with mixed opinions on their effectiveness compared to pharmaceuticals like finasteride.
