research Skin physiology in microgravity: a 3-month stay aboard ISS induces dermal atrophy and affects cutaneous muscle and hair follicles cycling in mice
A 3-month stay in space causes skin thinning, disrupts hair growth, and changes muscle-related genes in mice.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge do not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration after Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.
research Nestin-Expressing Stem Cells from the Hair Follicle Can Differentiate Into Motor Neurons and Reduce Muscle Atrophy after Transplantation to Injured Nerves
Hair follicle stem cells can become motor neurons and reduce muscle loss after nerve injury.
research Leptomeningeal angiomatosis accompanied by hair follicle nevus
A baby had a rare condition with abnormal blood vessels in the brain and unusual skin and hair growth, possibly a new syndrome.
research Endogenous retinoids in the hair follicle and sebaceous gland

5 / 86 resultscommunity PP405 Won’t Work: Follicle Is Miniaturized, Fibrosed, And Missing Key Support Cells
PP405 is ineffective for miniaturized, fibrosed hair follicles in androgenetic alopecia. AMP303 may activate hair follicle stem cells, but minoxidil and finasteride are still the main treatments.
community Scalp tension and thickness of the galea aponeurotica, inflammation and potential treatment pathways
Scalp tension potentially affecting hair loss, and potential treatments for male pattern baldness such as Minoxidil, Finasteride and RU58841. Evidence from a study was discussed which suggests that the cause of MPB lies within the follicle itself and is not dependent on its surrounding environment.
community 57% increased chance of pattern hair loss independently associated with the consumption of sugary beverages in men (p<0.001).
Sugary beverages increase the risk of pattern hair loss in men by 57%, and type 2 diabetes is linked to female pattern hair loss. Reducing sugar intake and using treatments like finasteride and minoxidil may help manage hair loss.
community Reducing Fibrosis in Hair Loss: Topical Pirfenidone
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 NMN Promotes Cell Proliferation and Hair Growth by Reducing Oxidative Stress
NMN shows promise in promoting hair growth by reducing oxidative stress and weakening androgens. It may be a beneficial addition to hair loss treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.
