The Administration of Flumethasone by Three Different Routes, Its Measurement in the Plasma, and Some Effects on Wool Growth in Merino Wethers

research The Administration of Flumethasone, by Three Different Routes, its Measurement in the Plasma and Some Effects on Wool Growth in Merino Wethers

9 citations , December 1978 in “Australian Journal of Biological Sciences”

This study found that flumethasone administration in Merino wethers led to variations in wool shedding and initial reductions in wool growth, with full recovery generally observed within 60 days post-treatment.

research Ectopic expression of FGF5s induces wool growth in Chinese merino sheep

7 citations , June 2017 in “Gene”

This study found that ectopic expression of FGF5s in transgenic Chinese Merino sheep increased wool length and greasy fleece weight compared to non-transgenic controls.

research Transient treatment of pregnant Merino ewes with modulators of cortisol biosynthesis coinciding with primary wool follicle initiation alters lifetime wool growth

7 citations , April 2013 in “Animal Production Science”

This study found that manipulating maternal cortisol levels during pregnancy altered Merino sheep wool characteristics, increasing fibre length and reducing crimp frequency in the offspring.

research Investigation of Some Amino Acid Analogues and Metabolites as Inhibitors of Wool and Hair Growth

5 citations , May 1983 in “Australian journal of biological sciences”

This study found that concurrent administration of cycloleucine with ethionine prevented the weakening of wool fibers in sheep, whereas reduced glutathione did not have the same effect.

research Inhibitory Effects of Ethionine, an Analogue of Methionine, on Wool Growth

3 citations , January 1982 in “Australian journal of biological sciences”

This study found that ethionine significantly inhibited wool growth in sheep, with L- and D-isomers being equally effective, but did not cause hair loss in sucking mice or rats.

community A little more than a month using red light therapy. I'm surprised by the progress.

263 upvotes 5 months ago

Red light therapy has shown promising results in hair regrowth for the user, who avoids minoxidil and finasteride due to side effects. The user follows a healthy lifestyle with diet, exercise, and sauna use, and will continue monitoring the therapy's effectiveness.

community Claim: Insulin resistance increases the enzyme that creates DHT and affects the liver's ability to control hormones

in Research/Science 4 upvotes 11 months ago

Insulin resistance may increase DHT production, contributing to hair loss, and addressing it through diet, nutrients, and natural DHT blockers like saw palmetto and pumpkin seed oil could help reverse hair loss. Some users prefer medications like finasteride for more effective results.

community Haircafe slams pp405 presentation. Are results really that bad?

64 upvotes 5 months ago

PP405 shows promise in activating dormant hair follicles and increasing hair counts but lacks detailed efficacy data compared to minoxidil and finasteride. Opinions are mixed, with some optimism and skepticism about its effectiveness.

community If we can clone a sheep why we can't cure baldness till now

in Research/Science 181 upvotes 11 months ago

Hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and stem cell therapies exist, but a complete cure is hindered by genetic complexity and market dynamics. Cloning hair follicles is considered a potential solution, but it's currently not feasible.
