5 / 400 resultsresearch Pan-tissue scaling of stiffness versus fibrillar collagen reflects contractility-driven strain that inhibits fibril degradation
Tissue stiffness is influenced by contractility, which suppresses collagen breakdown.
research Topological Distribution of Wound Stiffness Modulates Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Neogenesis
The stiffness of a wound affects hair growth during healing, with less stiff areas growing more hair.
research Single-cell transcriptomics reveals hair growth retardation mediated by aberrant connective tissue sheath contraction in male androgenetic alopecia
Inhibiting connective tissue sheath contraction may improve hair growth in male pattern baldness.
research Esrp1-Regulated Splicing of Arhgef11 Isoforms Is Required for Epithelial Tight Junction Integrity
The study concluded that specific proteins are necessary to maintain the structure that holds epithelial cells tightly together.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Minoxidil’s mechanism of action on blood pressure as a potassium channel opening molecule
Minoxidil works by opening potassium channels, leading to reduced blood pressure and potential side effects like reflex tachycardia. It is used for hair growth and affects blood pressure at high doses.
community Hairline stable but diffuse thinning with topical fin+min
The user experienced stable hairline but diffuse thinning after switching from oral finasteride to a topical solution of minoxidil and finasteride. They are concerned about the effectiveness of the topical treatment and are considering other options due to a recent decline in hair density.
community Painkillers May Block Minoxidil
Painkillers like Aspirin may reduce Minoxidil's effectiveness by inhibiting the enzyme PGHS-1, which is crucial for hair growth. Using NSAIDs that inhibit COX-2 or combining Minoxidil with PGF2/E2 analogues or retinoids may enhance its efficacy.
community The end of balding: We may have just found the secret to hair regrowth
MCL-1 is important for hair follicle stem cell survival, but its impact on human hair regrowth is unclear. Minoxidil and finasteride are the main treatments, with doubts about new discoveries leading to effective human solutions soon.
community Is there any new drug that looks promising ?
The conversation discusses GT20029, a drug in Phase II trials that targets androgen receptors with minimal systemic effects, and TDM-105795, a growth stimulant with a different mechanism than minoxidil that may revive papilla stem cells. Both are potential new treatments for hair loss.
