GlossaryTransforming Growth Factor Beta

protein regulating cell growth, differentiation, and immune responses

Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF-β) is a protein that plays a crucial role in regulating cell growth, differentiation, and immune responses. It is involved in various biological processes, including wound healing and the development of fibrosis, and can influence hair growth by affecting the hair follicle cycle.

The conversation discusses hair loss linked to BDNF-increasing nootropics like Semax and Lions Mane. Suggested topical treatments include capsaicin, beta-glucan, and ginseng to counteract TGF-B activation.

community A new study by Deng and colleagues set out to explore differences between balding and non balding scalps...

in Research/Science 38 upvotes 4 years ago

Balding scalps have more androgen receptors, leading to increased TGF-beta, which causes blood vessel loss and hair follicle miniaturization. Blocking androgen signaling and TGF-beta may help prevent hair loss.

community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits

in Chat 138 upvotes 9 months ago

Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.
