5 / 1000+ resultsresearch In Vitro Assembly and Structure of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Scientists successfully created mouse hair proteins in the lab, which are stable and similar to natural hair.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research The role of disulfide bond formation in the structural transition observed in the intermediate filaments of developing hair
Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair structure during keratinization.
research The structure of human trichohyalin : potential multiple roles as a functional ef-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin is a versatile protein involved in hair and skin structure.
research From structural resilience to cell specification — Intermediate filaments as regulators of cell fate

The conversation discusses the variability in effectiveness and safety of generic finasteride from different manufacturers, with some generics potentially containing impurities. Users shared their experiences with various brands, questioning if different brands affect hair loss treatment outcomes.
community Common hair-loss drug consistently associated with higher rates of psychiatric harm
Finasteride and dutasteride can cause psychiatric side effects like depression and suicidal thoughts in some users, especially those with a history of mental health issues. While some users experience positive hair growth results, others face severe psychological effects, raising concerns about their safety and the need for careful monitoring.
community Nov 2023 to today. 1mg finasteride daily since Feb 2024. Considering moving to Dutasteride based on the anecdotes I see on this sub and would like input.
A 30-year-old is using 1mg finasteride daily and 5% minoxidil inconsistently for hair regrowth, noticing recent progress and considering switching to dutasteride. Users advise continuing the current regimen for at least two years before considering dutasteride, as finasteride and minoxidil are showing positive results.
community Febron's Hair fiber quality is horrible now.
Febron Hair fiber quality has decreased since post-pandemic era, causing fibers to stick to fingers. Users seek better brand recommendations.
