research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Genome-Wide Association Study of Skin Complex Diseases
Genetic variants linked to ten skin diseases were found, showing both immune and non-immune factors play a role.
research Evidence for Two Independent Functional Variants for Androgenetic Alopecia Around the Androgen Receptor Gene
Two gene areas linked to male pattern baldness found, more research needed.
research Elucidating the Roles of Three β-Glucuronosyltransferases Acting on Arabinogalactan-Proteins Using a CRISPR-Cas9 Multiplexing Approach in Arabidopsis
The study concluded that three enzymes are important for plant development by affecting sugar composition and calcium binding in plants.
research Transcriptome Reveals Long Non-Coding RNAs and mRNAs Involved in Primary Wool Follicle Induction in Carpet Sheep Fetal Skin

5 / 403 resultscommunity Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits
Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.
community Doctor told me not to take fin.
A doctor advised against taking finasteride after a hair transplant, suggesting the patient had reached their final balding pattern, but many users disagreed, recommending medications like minoxidil and finasteride to prevent further hair loss. The consensus was to seek a second opinion, as the advice seemed financially motivated rather than medically sound.
community If we can clone a sheep why we can't cure baldness till now
Hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and stem cell therapies exist, but a complete cure is hindered by genetic complexity and market dynamics. Cloning hair follicles is considered a potential solution, but it's currently not feasible.
community PP405 Drug in Action: Picture From Official Company Website
PP405 shows promise for hair follicle reactivation with minimal side effects. Users recommend continuing Minoxidil and Finasteride until more results are confirmed.
community Are permanent hair gains even possible?
Hair regrowth from treatments like minoxidil, RU58841, and finasteride is not permanent; stopping these treatments typically results in hair loss resuming. Beard hair can become permanent with minoxidil use, unlike scalp hair, which requires ongoing treatment to maintain gains.
