From Molecular Biology to Therapeutics

    TLDR The document discusses various skin disorders and new therapeutic approaches.
    The document "From molecular biology to therapeutics" from 1994 provided insights into various pathological processes and therapeutic approaches. It covered structural protein expression in skin disorders like ichthyoses and epidermolysis bullosa, mechanisms of retinoic acid in photoaging, and cell trafficking in inflammatory dermatoses. It also discussed the regulation of keratin gene expression by hormones and vitamins, the role of the steroid/retinoid hormone receptor super-family, and synthetic retinoids. Additionally, it reviewed cytokine modulation of collagen and elastin gene expression, growth factors in melanocytes and melanoma, and the release of interleukins in psoriatic epidermal cells. New therapeutic approaches included the use of all-trans-retinoic acid in leukemia, vitamin D3 analogues in psoriasis, and viral vectors for gene transfer.

      Minoxidil is more effective when combined with retinoic acid, such as tretinoin or tazarotene, enhancing hair growth. Some users experience significant regrowth, while others see minimal effects or side effects.

      community How important are Retinoic and Hydrocortisone in topical serum?

      in Treatment  4 upvotes 7 months ago
      The conversation is about using a topical serum for hair loss with ingredients like finasteride and minoxidil, and the option to exclude retinoic acid and hydrocortisone due to concerns about long-term effects. One user prefers using only finasteride, avoiding minoxidil and retinoic acid, and plans to remove hydrocortisone in future orders.
