community Prolactin's role in antitumor activity of the immune system - a safety concern for HMI-115?

in Research/Science 4 upvotes 3 years ago

Hair loss discussion includes treatments Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841. Prolactin's role in immune system's antitumor activity raises safety concerns for HMI-115.

community Sugar and Hair loss connections

in Research/Science 41 upvotes 1 year ago

High sugar diets may worsen hair loss by increasing 5α-reductase activity and androgen levels, especially in women with PCOS. A low sugar diet might reduce scalp DHT levels, similar to finasteride, but genetics also significantly influence hair loss.

community TWIST-1 and the cure: Is it really that easy?

in Research/Science 283 upvotes 4 years ago

TWIST-1 gene's role in hair loss and potential as a treatment target. Inhibiting TWIST-1 may prolong hair growth and reduce hair follicle sensitivity to DHT.

community The ending of alopecia? Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence

in Research/Science 64 upvotes 4 years ago

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 Minoxidil Response Test - worth it?

in Minoxidil 9 upvotes 1 year ago
