Determination of Proliferation and Collagen Synthesis of Human Dermal Hair Papilla Cells

    TLDR Routine culture medium boosts cell growth, but dermal hair papilla and sheath cells produce less collagen than fibroblasts.
    The study aimed to determine the proliferation and collagen synthesis of human dermal hair papilla cells. It found that cell proliferation had a high phase on the 11th day in basal culture medium and two high phases on the 5th and 11th days in routine culture medium. Collagen synthesis did not differ among dermal hair papilla cells, dermal sheath cells, and fibroblasts, but the collagen amount was higher in fibroblast medium. This suggested different functions for these cells. The study concluded that routine culture medium was effective for cell growth and proliferation, and that dermal hair papilla and sheath cells had a lower collagen secretion ability compared to fibroblasts.

      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.

      The conversation is about using vitamin C and Magnesium L-Threonate for hair growth by reducing DHT binding to dermal papilla cells. The original post about vitamin C's pH levels and sebum control was possibly removed by a moderator.

      Microneedling for hair restoration involves daily use of a 0.3 mm device and weekly use of a 0.5 mm device. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil can enhance hair growth.

      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.
