5 / 1000+ resultsresearch All-trans-retinoic acid inhibits mink hair follicle growth via inhibiting proliferation and inducing apoptosis of dermal papilla cells through TGF-β2/Smad2/3 pathway
All-trans-retinoic acid stops mink hair growth by affecting cell growth and causing cell death.
research 1325 Age-dependent loss of the stemness and antimicrobial defense function of dermal fibroblasts is mediated by TGFbeta
Aging reduces skin cell renewal and defense against germs due to TGFbeta, but blocking TGFbeta could help restore these functions.
research Injectable platelet-rich fibrin promotes proliferation and trichogenic inductivityof dermal papilla cells through activating TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway
Injectable platelet-rich fibrin is better than platelet-rich plasma for promoting hair growth.
research A ‘hot’ new twist to hair biology – involvement of vanilloid receptor‐1 signaling in human hair growth control
VR1 signaling can inhibit hair growth by affecting cell processes and increasing hair growth inhibitors.
research Androgenetic alopecia-associated cytokines
Cytokines play a key role in hair loss by affecting hair growth.

5 / 84 resultscommunity My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia
Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.
community HLT Megathread on HMI-115 (key takeaways in comments)
HMI-115, a newly discovered hair loss treatment that could potentially be effective for those with diffuse thinning and telogen effluvium. It is based on prolactin receptor antagonist signaling and has already undergone Phase I trials in women, with potential commercialization by 2027.
community 5 Month's progress on Topical FIN, MIN, Topical Dut, Laser Cap
User "hemantch" shares 5 months progress using topical Fin, Min, topical Dut, and a laser cap for hair loss. Significant regrowth was noticed after 1 month, and the treatments worked well despite being bald for 10 years.
community Rethinking DHT and Hair Loss: Are We Targeting the Wrong Enemy?
Blocking DHT is not a cure for hair loss; instead, altering how scalp follicles respond to DHT might be more effective. Current treatments like topical finasteride and minoxidil are temporary solutions, and future approaches may involve gene therapy and bioengineering to change follicle behavior.
community Rethinking DHT and Hair Loss: Are We Targeting the Wrong Enemy?
Blocking DHT is not a complete solution for hair loss; instead, altering the scalp's response to DHT may be more effective. Topical finasteride and minoxidil are current treatments, but future approaches may involve bioengineering, gene therapy, and inflammation control.
