Scientists discovered a unique hair protein, KAP24.1, with a special structure, found only in the upper part of hair cuticles.
research Structural behavior of keratin-associated protein 8.1 in human hair as revealed by a monoclonal antibody
KAP8.1 protein is crucial for hair structure and interacts with keratin 85.
research Study on the skin structure, hair follicle cycle, and GSDMA protein expression in Ganxi goats
Ganxi goats' skin and hair adapt to heat and humidity, possibly aided by GSDMA protein.
research Insights into structural and proteomic alterations related to pH ‐induced changes and protein deamidation in hair
Haircare products with a pH between 5 and 7 are best for maintaining healthy hair.
research Locations of synthesis of hair structural proteins in human anagen follicles

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Verteporfin and Microneedling
Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
community Will Hair cloning actually work? Could it actually be here by next year or so, as they're saying? I don't think it will be here so soon, but maybe in the next 5 years? I'm a diffuse thinner so hairline doesn't seem much of a worry for me now...
Hair cloning is discussed as a potential future solution for hair loss, but it's not expected to be available soon due to high costs and technical challenges. Current treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 are not mentioned in this conversation.
community Hair progress from a year ago to today
A user shared their daily hair loss treatment routine, which includes 1mg of oral finasteride, 1mg of oral minoxidil, 1ml of castor oil, biotin, collagen, multivitamins, zinc, magnesium, liver supplements, RU58841 every night, and ketoconazole shampoo twice a week. They also mentioned a healthy lifestyle and a past unsuccessful hair transplant, but have experienced hair regrowth and thickening since starting their current regimen.
community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.
Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.
community Can iron or other vitamin deficiency lead to a decrease in hair diameter? Or does this only occur in androgenetic alopecia?
Iron or vitamin deficiencies can lead to decreased hair diameter, not just androgenetic alopecia. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
