    TLDR Extracellular vesicles can help repair and regenerate tissues with less risk of rejection.
    The document reviewed the potential of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in regenerative medicine, emphasizing their role in tissue repair and regeneration. EVs, including exosomes and microvesicles, were highlighted for their ability to transfer functional cargo between cells, influencing cellular behavior and promoting healing. The review noted the promise of EV-based therapies in pre-clinical studies for various conditions, such as cardiac, skin, and bone regeneration, and their potential as alternatives to traditional cell-based therapies. Despite the promise, challenges such as large-scale production, characterization, and safety concerns remained. The document also mentioned the growing interest in EV technology within the pharmaceutical industry, with numerous companies and clinical trials exploring their therapeutic applications. Further research was needed to optimize EV processes and address these challenges for clinical translation.

      Exosomes are being discussed as a potential hair loss treatment, with some users skeptical about their effectiveness and stability. There is interest in different types of exosomes, including those derived from centella asiatica, and comparisons are made to other treatments like finasteride.

      community Serum based on plant extracts boosts hair growth in weeks.

      in Treatment  43 upvotes 2 months ago
      A serum containing Centella asiatica extracellular vesicles, IGF-1, FGF-7, and caffeine significantly improved hair thickness, density, length, and reduced hair loss after 56 days. The conversation also discusses how treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and ketoconazole address different aspects of hair loss by reducing DHT, improving blood flow, and lowering inflammation.
