Research
5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Molecular cloning, characterization, and expression of sheep FGF5 gene
Researchers identified a new variant of the FGF5 gene in sheep that affects hair length.
research Loose Anagen Hair Associated with Wooly Hair Caused by a Heterozygous, Intronic KRT71 Variant
A genetic variant in the KRT71 gene may cause loose anagen hair and wooly hair, and symptoms might improve with age.
research Antiandrogenic activity of Riboflavin 5′-phosphate (FMN) in 22Rv1 and LNCaP human prostate cancer cell lines
Riboflavin 5′-phosphate (FMN) shows potential for treating androgen-related conditions but may be limited in treating prostate cancer.
research Twins with psychiatric features and a nonsense HRAS variant affecting transcript processing
A new HRAS gene variant may cause a range of symptoms including intellectual disability and psychiatric issues.
research Low-Dose Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) Suppresses Androgen Receptor (AR) and Its Splice Variant AR-V7 in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) Cells
Low-dose DMSO may help treat castration-resistant prostate cancer by reducing key cancer cell receptors.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Genomic Sequencing for Hair Loss
Hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and potential mRNA therapies are discussed. There is skepticism about targeting specific genes due to the complex genetic nature of hair loss.
community Silicon Valley backed company aims to cure hair loss
A Silicon Valley-backed company aims to cure hair loss. Exciting advancements include mRNA therapies, gene editing, hair cloning, AR degraders, anti-androgens, cell-based rejuvenation, and AI-based drug discovery, with hopes for FDA approval of GT20029 within 10 years.
community I believe CRISPR-on & CRISPR-off is an ultimate CURE for baldness, unlike Hair Cloning or hair loss treatments.
The conversation discusses CRISPR-on & CRISPR-off as a potential cure for baldness, contrasting it with hair cloning and other treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. It also mentions the potential of mRNA for gene expression control and the prioritization of gene editing for severe genetic conditions.
community Minoxidil is a 5ar inhibitor according to research
Minoxidil may inhibit androgen receptors and affect hormonal pathways, potentially explaining its effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Users discuss its varying effectiveness on scalp versus facial hair and note fewer side effects with topical use compared to oral.
community Can liver problems be associated with response to the oral minoxidil?
Liver problems may reduce the effectiveness of oral minoxidil due to impaired SULT1A1 enzyme activity, which is crucial for converting minoxidil to its active form. This reduction in enzyme function can significantly decrease the drug's effectiveness in promoting hair growth.
