research HDAC6-Dependent Deacetylation of NGF Dictates Its Ubiquitination and Maintains Primordial Follicle Dormancy
HDAC6 helps keep ovarian follicles dormant, extending female fertility.
research Stem Cell-Derived Motor Neurons from Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy Patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research The Abnormal, Mislocalized HR BMH Protein Associates with Members of the Protein Processing Machinery in the Cytoplasm
The mutant HR bmh protein mis-localizes in cells, affecting skin and hair development.
research Analysis of Hairless Gene Regulation and Identification of Affected Signaling Pathways in 'Bald Mill Hill' Mutants
The mutant HR bmh protein affects hair follicle formation by failing to repress vitamin D receptor activity.
research The Hairless Gene Mutated in Congenital Hair Loss Disorders Encodes a Novel Nuclear Receptor Corepressor
The mutated hairless gene causes hair loss by acting as a new type of corepressor affecting thyroid hormone receptors.

3 / 3 resultscommunity New & Improved Hair Growth Stack for Maximum Results
A user shared a hair growth stack using minoxidil sulfate, valproic acid, bimatoprost, blue copper peptide, and other ingredients, emphasizing a gel-based formula for better skin tolerance. Another user suggested adding a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor like finasteride or dutasteride for more effective long-term results.
community Better Than Minoxidil? Topical Sodium Valproate
Topical sodium valproate may promote hair growth by inhibiting GSK3β, allowing beta-catenin to proliferate, but it has potential side effects and requires more research. The conversation also mentions skepticism about a product called Vdphlo1, which includes sodium valproate and other ingredients.
community TWIST-1 and the cure: Is it really that easy?
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.
