community A stress hormone has been found to signal through skin cells to repress the activation of hair-follicle stem cells in mice
Stress can lead to hair loss by affecting hair-follicle stem cells, and this loss is harder to recover from if one has male pattern baldness (MPB). Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are used to address hair loss, but stress-related hair loss differs from androgenic alopecia.
community Researchers working on ways to regenerate lost hair from stem cells identified a recipe for normal hair regeneration in the lab. “A method for cyclical regeneration of hair follicles from hair follicle stem cells and will help make hair follicle regeneration therapy a reality in the near future.”
Hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and hair transplants have side effects and limitations. There is hope for future advancements in stem cell therapy and hair follicle regeneration, though skepticism about their effectiveness and timeline persists.
community If Dr. Tsuji’s stem cell multiplication procedure works, will it be effective for those with DUPA?
Dr. Tsuji's stem cell hair multiplication procedure may offer a future solution for hair loss, but it is initially expected to be very expensive, with prices potentially decreasing over time. In the meantime, users discuss using treatments like finasteride, despite side effects, to manage hair loss.
community Fully functional hair follicle regeneration through the rearrangement of stem cells and their niches
community A cure for baldness? Stem cell researchers race to regenerate follicles from hair resistant to loss
Researchers are working on regenerating hair follicles using stem cells, but a cure for baldness is still years away. Current treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community New growth, not sure from which treatment(stem cells or RU58841), hair line extending!
The user experienced new hair growth after switching from oral finasteride to topical RU58841 with minoxidil and undergoing stem cell therapy. They noticed new hairs at the hairline and temples, but are unsure which treatment is responsible.
community October 2025 $120M funding round for PP405 — hype justified or too early to celebrate?
Pelage secured $120 million for PP405, a non-hormonal topical hair loss treatment, sparking debate on its potential as a breakthrough. Concerns about finasteride's side effects persist, with some suggesting alternatives like topical finasteride or dutasteride.
community Pilose antler extracts promotes hair growth in androgenetic alopecia mice by activating hair follicle stem cells via the AKT and Wnt pathways
community How to buy dr. Pen and be certain it is authentic? Seems like many are fake. (Located in Belgium, EU)
The conversation is about buying an authentic Dr. Pen for microneedling in Belgium and where to purchase related supplies like 70% isopropyl alcohol, denture tablets, antiseptic cleanser, and hyaluronic acid. The user is unsure about the official site and seeks recommendations.
community MicroRNA science breakthrough? Softening stem cells
community The ending of alopecia? Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Corticosterone inhibits GAS6, affecting hair follicle stem-cell activity, with potential implications for stress-related hair loss. Ashwagandha and Vitamin K are suggested for reducing cortisol, but their effectiveness is debated.
community Scientists in Japan develop a new technique to reverse balding by transplanting a special kind of hair follicle cell into a patient's scalp
A new technique developed by scientists in Japan to reverse balding using hair follicle cell transplants, and the discussion around the effectiveness of this approach compared to other treatments such as Minoxidil, finasteride, RU58841, Replicel, and Hairclone.
community New Peer-Reviewed Publication Further Validates RepliCel's Use of Dermal Sheath Cup Cells to Treat Pattern Baldness - Paper entitled "Hair Follicle Dermal Stem Cells Regenerate the Dermal Sheath, Repopulate the Dermal Papilla, and Modulate Hair Type" published journal Developmental Cell
community DIY Minoxidil mix with Fin, Caffeine, Cetirizine, and Melatonin?
A user plans to create a custom topical solution by adding finasteride, caffeine, cetirizine, and melatonin to a minoxidil bottle, questioning the stability and effectiveness of this mix. Concerns include potential crystallization and solution muddiness with added ingredients.
community New study: Vitamin D counteracts DHT in mice and in human hair organ culture and hair cells
Vitamin D may counteract DHT and help with hair growth, as seen in mice and human hair cultures. Some users discuss using Vitamin D, magnesium, and other supplements for hair health, while others humorously note the success in mice.
community Has anyone here tried topical synthetic prostaglandins (Bimatoprost, Latanoprost, cetirizine) to stimulate hair growth?
The conversation discusses using topical synthetic prostaglandins like Bimatoprost, Latanoprost, and cetirizine for hair growth. The user shares a link suggesting these treatments may be effective.
community Minoxidil + MN is lowering my hairline, but mostly just the center?
Minoxidil and microneedling are causing new hair growth, particularly in the center of the hairline, creating a more prominent M shape. Users discuss the progress and potential benefits of the treatment.
community Minoxidil without coconut derivatives? (coconut allergy) (glycerin, cetyl alcohol)
A user is seeking a Minoxidil solution without coconut derivatives due to a coconut allergy and is considering DIY options from pure Minoxidil tablets. They mention that Rogaine contains glycerin and cetyl alcohol, which are derived from coconut.
community Relax to grow more hair. Study title: Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
community [Nov 2019] The peptide AC 2 isolated from Bacillus-treated Trapa japonica fruit extract rescues DHT (dihydrotestosterone)-treated human dermal papilla cells and mediates mTORC1 signaling for autophagy and apoptosis suppression
A peptide from Japanese water chestnut fruit may help with hair loss by suppressing DHT's effect on hair follicle cell death, potentially serving as a finasteride alternative. The treatment's effectiveness and safety in humans remain uncertain.
community Anyone heard of HairStemCell Transplant? They claim not needing to pull the entire hair cell, allowing reuse of same donor area.
community 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.
