↳ Dihydrotestosterone Regulates Hair Growth Through the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway in C57BL/6 Mice and In Vitro Organ Culture

..optimal out of the doses tested. Inhibition can start to occur and peak earlier when cells is bathed in the 10^−7 to 10^−6 mol/L interval. Same thing when you apply the trash (Mannia, 2021a, 2021b, 2021c) in a concentration which exceeds that of serum, stimulation could occur somewhere in between the lower doses. But if it's acknowledged that serum levels aren't reliable predictors of tissue levels, how relevant is this? Also, if scalp levels are already elevated, is they not high enough, would justify increasing further?

"[..]in the following study, we chose 10^−6 mol/L as the optimal concentration of DHT that inhibits human HF growth, which is close to the circulating concentration of human DHT."

- 10^−6 mol/L: 1000 nmol/L (or 1 umol/L)
- 10^−7 mol/L: 100 nmol/L
- 10^−9 mol/L: 1 nmol/L
Serum reference range: 0.47-2.65 nmol/L
M = mol/L
- 10^−7 mol/L: 100 nmol/L
- 10^−9 mol/L: 1 nmol/L
Serum reference range: 0.47-2.65 nmol/L
