research The 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-independent actions of the vitamin D receptor in skin

18 citations , April 2010 in “Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology/The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology”

This research suggests that the vitamin D receptor may regulate hair follicle cycling and provide genoprotection against skin carcinogenesis through a mechanism independent of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, based on evidence from mouse models.

This study found that Lgr6+ stem cells in mice are not major initiators of UV- or chemically induced skin tumors.

research Expression of the human Cathepsin L inhibitor hurpin in mice: skin alterations and increased carcinogenesis

21 citations , August 2007 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This study found that mice genetically modified to overexpress the serine protease inhibitor hurpin showed reduced UV-induced apoptosis but increased susceptibility to skin cancer after chemical carcinogenesis.

research A Definitive Role of Ornithine Decarboxylase in Photocarcinogenesis

67 citations , September 2001 in “American Journal Of Pathology”

community Minoxidil actually reduces wrinkles

in Research/Science 209 upvotes 1 year ago

Minoxidil may improve or worsen skin quality, with topical forms causing dryness and wrinkles, possibly due to alcohol content, while oral forms have fewer side effects. Some users consider using tretinoin to mitigate negative effects.

community When the finasteride works but minoxidil doesn't

2203 upvotes 9 months ago

Finasteride maintains existing hair, but Minoxidil is less effective on hairlines. Walton Goggins is admired for his receding hairline, possibly using Finasteride and Minoxidil without a hair transplant.

community Sunlight: Does it Stimulate Hair Growth or Hair Loss?

in Research/Science 64 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses whether sunlight exposure affects hair growth or loss, with mixed anecdotes and theories but no clear consensus. Some suggest moderate sunlight can benefit hair by providing vitamin D, while others doubt its effectiveness compared to treatments like Minoxidil or finasteride.

community Best Supplements (If Any) That Will Help Speed Things Up and Enhance Results

2 upvotes 4 years ago

The conversation discusses using topical minoxidil and finasteride, along with dermarolling and biotin shampoo, for hair loss treatment. It also explores supplements like NutraPro's hair growth formula and other products like tretinoin, Ducray shampoo, and Nizoral to enhance results.
