research The circadian molecular clock creates epidermal stem cell heterogeneity
The circadian clock affects skin stem cell behavior, impacting aging and cancer risk.
research Molecular insights into chronotype and time-of-day effects on decision-making
People's decision-making can be influenced by their internal biological clocks, as shown by gene expression, not just self-reported preferences for morning or evening.
research The clock within
The circadian clock in skin cells controls their growth and rest cycles.
research Recent advances in the molecular mechanisms determining tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids: novel mutations, circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression of the human glucocorticoid receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Multi-layered environmental regulation on the homeostasis of stem cells: The saga of hair growth and alopecia
Environmental factors at different levels control hair stem cell activity, which could lead to new hair growth and alopecia treatments.

5 / 718 resultscommunity IGF-1 and Peptides? Miracle molecule waiting to be found
The conversation discusses potential hair loss treatments focusing on stimulating IGF-1 at the follicle level using growth-factor cocktails and engineered peptides, such as Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, Copper Tripeptide-1, Oligopeptide-20, Thymosin-β4, and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7. It suggests that device-assisted delivery methods like microneedling may enhance effectiveness.
community This, and the UCLA molecule(linked article in comments)…I have great hopes
Oleic acid and ethanol are being considered for hair regrowth, with some users planning to self-experiment. There is skepticism about their effectiveness, and ongoing use of treatments like finasteride and minoxidil is mentioned.
community Did Scientists Just Cure Baldness? UCLA’s New Molecule Could Revolutionize Hair Growth
PP405 shows promise for hair growth but may need continuous use like Minoxidil. Current treatments include Minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride, with skepticism about a true cure due to financial interests.
community New potential hair loss treatment (news release)
New potential hair loss treatment uses molecules from hairy moles to stimulate follicle growth. Topical solution requires less frequent application, like Botox injections a few times per year.
community New article on PP405..........
Scientists at UCLA have developed a promising treatment for male pattern baldness using a molecule called PP405, which can potentially stimulate dormant hair follicles. Initial trials showed significant results within a week, but larger clinical trials are needed to confirm its efficacy and safety.
