Hair follicle stem cells can become heart muscle cells.
research Isoproterenol directs hair follicle-associated pluripotent (HAP) stem cells to differentiate in vitro to cardiac muscle cells which can be induced to form beating heart-muscle tissue sheets
Isoproterenol helps hair follicle stem cells turn into beating heart muscle cells.
research Hair follicle associated pluripotent (HAP) stem cell from young mice have the greatest potential to differentiate to cardiac muscle cells
Young mice's hair follicle stem cells are best for turning into heart muscle cells.

community Finasteride , creatine and muscle growth
Finasteride does not significantly affect muscle gains and can slightly increase testosterone levels. Creatine is generally considered safe to use with finasteride, though some believe it may increase DHT levels, potentially affecting hair loss.
community Minoxidil Finasteride heart problems
A user experienced heart problems after taking 1mg finasteride and 2.5mg oral minoxidil and is considering quitting minoxidil. Others discussed their experiences with heart issues and minoxidil, with some suggesting topical minoxidil as a safer alternative.
