Infomercial channels are riddled with the next-best hair-loss solution, but those toupees, ointments, and hair plugs might ...

Our research suggests that the answer to treating hair loss might be as simple as using a naturally occurring deoxyribose ...

In 2024, scientists stumbled upon a potential new treatment for hereditary-patterned baldness, the most common cause of hair ...

To test the sugar’s potential for treating hereditary-patterned baldness, the researchers created a gel infused with deoxyribose and applied it to mice with testosterone-induced hair loss ...

If deoxyribose proves effective in humans, it could also be used to treat alopecia and possibly to stimulate hair, lash and eyebrow regrowth after chemotherapy.

There are many theories surrounding the origins of life on Earth. Scientists think that biological compounds like 2-deoxyribose may have played a role in the formation of Earth’s first organisms.

The previously published X-ray data5'6 on deoxyribose nucleic acid are insufficient for a rigorous test of our structure.

But what sets this new hair regrowth gel apart? Unlike existing treatments such as minoxidil or finasteride, deoxyribose gel is non-toxic, biodegradable, and harnesses the body’s natural compounds.

Many common drugs induce megaloblastic anemia by interfering with folate or vitamin B12 absorption, altering B12 metabolism, or blocking pathways in which these vitamins play a role. Supplements to ...

By swapping sugars in the DNA helix, scientists have created a new kind of genetic code that can function and evolve like regular DNA.

Out of all the possible molecules in the world, just two form the basis of life’s grand variety: DNA and RNA. They alone can store and pass on genetic information. Within their repetitive twists ...
