The Dermis of Mellivora Capensis

    Samad Muhammed Mohd, Dalal Abdul Hussain Kadium, Ashwaq Kadium Ebed, Hussain sattar Rebat Alzerfi
    TLDR The dermis of Millivora Capenesis has two layers with various connective tissues, blood vessels, glands, and sensory structures.
    The study examined the dorsal skin of three Millivora Capenesis, focusing on the dermis, which was found to consist of papillary and reticular layers. The papillary layer contained loose connective tissue with abundant collagenous fibers, few elastic fibers, blood capillaries, a large artery, a large vein, and Meissner and Pacinian corpuscles. The reticular layer contained dense connective tissue with skin appendages such as hair, sebaceous glands, and sweat glands. Two types of hair follicles, primary and secondary, were identified, with sebaceous glands surrounding the hair follicles. The sweat glands were simple saccular glands lined by low cuboidal epithelium, while their ducts were lined by stratified cuboidal epithelium. Meissner corpuscles were located in the papillary layer, and Pacinian corpuscles were found in the reticular layer, both appearing as onion shapes.

      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 1 year ago
      Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.

      Procapil is marketed as a natural hair loss treatment but lacks strong evidence and is industry-biased. Minoxidil and Finasteride are the only FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia.
