5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Mice With a Null Mutation of the TGFα Gene Have Abnormal Skin Architecture, Wavy Hair, and Curly Whiskers and Often Develop Corneal Inflammation
TGFα gene mutation in mice causes abnormal skin, wavy hair, curly whiskers, and sometimes eye inflammation.
research Transgenic Mice Provide New Insights Into the Role of TGF-Alpha During Epidermal Development and Differentiation
TGF-alpha affects skin thickness, hair growth, and may contribute to psoriasis and papilloma formation.
research Paracrine TGF-β Signaling Counterbalances BMP-Mediated Repression in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
TGF-β2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells by counteracting BMP signals.
research Androgen-Inducible TGF-β1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Inhibits Epithelial Cell Growth: A Clue to Understanding Paradoxical Effects of Androgen on Human Hair Growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research The Harmonies Played by TGF-β in Stem Cell Biology
TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.

5 / 67 resultscommunity TGF-Beta. Good or Bad? Help for treatment investment
TGF-B affects hair growth, both causing stem cell division and death depending on amounts. Amplifica's treatment injects Scube3 to increase TGF-B for hair growth.
community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia
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 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 Possible topical option for preventing BDNF-related hair loss
The conversation discusses hair loss linked to BDNF-increasing nootropics like Semax and Lions Mane. Suggested topical treatments include capsaicin, beta-glucan, and ginseng to counteract TGF-B activation.
community 2 years dutasteride + 1 year minox
A hair loss regimen that includes oral dutasteride and topical minoxidil, as well as occasional dermapen treatments; the user inquires about when they noticed most regrowth.
