research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
In this study, researchers found that ligand homodimerization controls the receptor binding specificity of the FGF9 subfamily, preventing off-target activation of FGFR "b" isoforms.
research Acyl-CoA binding protein and epidermal barrier function
This review discusses the role of acyl-CoA binding protein (ACBP) in the epidermal barrier, noting that its disruption in mice is linked to skin and fur abnormalities; it reports no new clinical results.
research The acyl-CoA binding protein is required for normal epidermal barrier function in mice
This study found that the acyl-CoA binding protein is essential for the production of very long chain free fatty acids in the stratum corneum and maintaining normal epidermal barrier function in mice.
research Learning from hair moisture sorption and hysteresis
This study found that the moisture sorption and desorption process can differentiate between cosmetic treatments of hair and provide insights into hair fibre structure changes, with bleaching causing greater symmetry breaking than perming.

( Cold shock therapy promotes hair growth in association with upregulation of cold-inducible RNA-binding protein and vascular endothelial growth factor).
Cold shock therapy may promote hair growth, but cold alone is not effective. Combining treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, cold showers, spicy foods, and exercise may enhance results.
community Minoxidil + Gym + Cutting. Is it bad?
A user is concerned about weight loss stagnation while using minoxidil and finasteride during a calorie-cutting diet. Responses suggest water retention or a weight loss plateau as possible causes.
community Why is nobody talking about the new study results for Pyrilutamide??
Pyrilutamide shows promising hair growth results, but skepticism exists due to potential biases and lack of blinding in the study. Concerns about side effects and legitimacy of the product persist, with comparisons to finasteride and discussions on post-finasteride syndrome.
community Increased Coffee intake resulted in massive shed
Increased coffee intake might be linked to hair shedding, but the cause is unclear. The user is on finasteride and has increased water intake, possibly affecting electrolyte balance.
community Ultimate Stack without nuking your gender (you'll go broke)
A hair loss treatment plan includes finasteride, dutasteride, RU58841, pyrilutamide, minoxidil, and microneedling to inhibit DHT and promote hair growth. It also recommends supplements like Reishi and Lion’s Mane mushrooms, and a shampoo with ketoconazole, caffeine, and melatonin.
