5 / 1000+ results research Current status of keratinized matrices in Toxicology : Comparison of hair and nails
Nails are being explored as an alternative to hair for evaluating long-term drug use, but differences in structure, growth, and drug incorporation between nails and hair can complicate analysis and interpretation. This review compiles literature comparing drug concentrations in hair, fingernails, and toenails, emphasizing studies with paired samples from the same individuals. While some drugs show clear results, more standardized studies are necessary to fully understand drug incorporation in nails and establish reliable cut-offs.
research Hair Versus Nails: Is There a Place for Other Keratin Matrices?
Nails are a useful alternative to hair for analyzing long-term substance exposure.
research An in Vitro Model for the Study of Human Hair Growth
Researchers created a lab model to study human hair growth, showing it can grow and self-regulate outside the body.
research Scaffolds for epithelial and hair follicle regeneration
Electrospun matrices help regenerate skin and hair follicles using PCL and collagen scaffolds.

Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.
community Peptides that Stop Hair Loss? | In-depth Literature Review Video
Peptides like TB500, KPV, GHK-CU, and BPC-157 are overhyped for hair growth with limited proven effectiveness in humans. Combining peptides with delivery methods like iontophoresis and sonophoresis shows promise, but many claims remain unproven.
community Dermastamping — do you use hyaluronic acid as lubricant?
The conversation discusses using high molecular weight hyaluronic acid after microneedling to form a protective barrier, though it's considered expensive and offers marginal improvement. Users share experiences with different microneedling tools like derma rollers, dermastamps, and Dr. Pen, with some opting not to use any products on the scalp.
community Keratin microspheres - breakthrough
A gel of keratin microspheres promotes hair follicle growth, showing similar effectiveness to minoxidil in mice. The treatment activates hair growth pathways and reduces inflammation, with potential applications in drug delivery for hair-related disorders.
community Injured temple with derma rolling
OP injured their temple using derma rolling and tretinoin, causing peeling and potential hair follicle damage. Users suggest the injury might be permanent, possibly resulting in scar tissue where hair won't grow.
