The author seeks investors to collaborate with Kintor or acquire the pyri patent, offering equity rewards and complimentary samples for verification.
community Interesting new publication suggesting that MPB should be assessed as a early warning sign for type-2 diabetes.
Male pattern baldness (MPB) may be an early warning sign for type 2 diabetes due to its association with insulin resistance. Treatments discussed include testosterone therapy and finasteride, which affects hormone levels related to hair loss and insulin sensitivity.
community PP405 (Non) Update - Feb 2025
The conversation discusses the delay in the PP405 Phase 2 study results, now expected by the end of 2025, and skepticism about research practices. There is also mention of optimism for Amplifica's AMP303 and a topical treatment in early testing.
community Topical rapamycin, metformin, a-kg grow hair
The conversation discusses the potential of topical rapamycin, metformin, and alpha-ketoglutarate (a-KG) for hair growth, with skepticism expressed about their effectiveness based on personal experience and existing use. It also mentions AICAR, known as cardarine or GW, which is not suitable for long-term use due to cancer risks in animal studies and its similarity to metformin.
community Rapamycin for Longevity 2022 - Hair pigmentation and regeneration in mice
The conversation is about the potential benefits of Rapamycin for hair pigmentation and regeneration, based on effects observed in mice. The original poster is seeking personal experiences from others using Rapamycin for longevity.
community 3α-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase community driven study, not anytime soon guys.
High cost of studying 3α-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in hair loss led to suggestions of crowdfunding for research. Users discussed using Procyanidin B2/melatonin topical treatment and tracking funds with blockchain.
community Effect of melatonin on aromatase expression
Melatonin's effect on aromatase expression is unclear, with studies showing both increases and decreases. Hormonal impacts are complex and inconsistent, similar to changing health advice on other substances.
community Wouldn’t it be funny if there already was a drug that existed which reactivated sleeping follicles? It would be our own version of Ozempic
PP405 shows promise for reactivating hair follicles, with potential maintenance using 5AR inhibitors. Current treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are effective but have limitations, and there is hope for more effective solutions in the future.
community Tazarotene shows strong standalone hair regrowth potential, not just a Minoxidil enhancer. Backed by VEGF, HF regeneration, and angiogenesis pathways. Here’s why.
Tazarotene shows potential as a standalone treatment for hair regrowth by stimulating new hair follicle formation and promoting angiogenesis, similar to microneedling effects. It can be used topically without minoxidil, but users should start with a low concentration to avoid irritation.
community Increasing activity of the sult1a1 enzyme via alkalizing agent and tretinoin for better response to topical minoxidil
Increasing the sult1a1 enzyme on the scalp may improve response to topical minoxidil. The user suggests using a baking soda solution, DMSO, and tretinoin to enhance enzyme activity and minoxidil effectiveness.
community Trestolone (MENT) as a nuclear treatment
Experimenting with trestolone as a treatment for hair loss in an attempt to avoid DHT-related treatments such as finasteride and dutasteride, and discussing the potential effects of its receptor selectivity on the androgen receptors in the scalp.
community FCE 28260: A Forgotten 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
FCE 28260 (PNU 156765), an under-explored 5α-reductase inhibitor, showcases promising results in research by Giudici et al., outperforming well-known treatments like Finasteride in reducing the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Its superior efficacy, demonstrated through lower IC50 values in both natural and human recombinant enzyme studies, suggests it could offer more effective management of DHT-related conditions. Additionally, its lower molecular weight hints at better potential for topical application, potentially offering advantages in treating conditions such as androgenic alopecia. Despite its potential, it has not advanced in development, possibly due to financial limitations, leaving its therapeutic prospects and side effect profile largely unexplored.
community New Study: PP405, developed by Pelage Pharmaceuticals, can reactivate dormant hair follicle stem cells and stimulate natural hair growth by 20%
PP405, developed by Pelage Pharmaceuticals, can reactivate dormant hair follicle stem cells and increase hair growth by 20% in eight weeks, unlike minoxidil or finasteride. However, skepticism remains about its effectiveness and availability, with concerns about funding and the timeline for broader access.
