TLDR The review concludes that innovations in regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, and developmental biology are essential for effective tissue repair and organ transplants.

The 2015 review "Role of regeneration in tissue repairing and therapies" by Ravi Kant Upadhyay discussed the crucial role of regeneration in healing wounds and recovering from injuries, and its potential applications in therapeutic treatments. The review emphasized the potential of harnessing this natural process for therapeutic purposes, such as in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. It highlighted the importance of various stem cell types, tissue engineering methods, new biological scaffold materials, and promising candidates such as immunomodulators, adhesions, and integrins in tissue repair and regeneration. The review also detailed the role of various molecules of the immune cell system, gene cascades, transcription specific proteins (TSPs), and growth factors in creating a conducive microenvironment for cell differentiation. The document concluded by emphasizing the need for innovations in regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, and developmental biology for successful tissue repair and organ transplants.

Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.

community Verteporfin and Microneedling

in Treatments 6 months 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.

community Why Is Only Tressless Talking About Verteporfin? Healing Wounds With Zero Scarring Has Gargantuan Implications For All of Medicine. So What Gives?

in Research/Science 19 upvotes 2 years ago

The potential of verteporfin to heal wounds without scarring; however, despite its promising preclinical trials and coverage from a major media outlet, there is still no official clinical trial result and the drug has only garnered attention from hair loss communities.

community If half life of fin is 6-8 hours in the blood but 5-6 days in tissue (scalp) why don't people apply topical every 3-4 days to minimize systemic?

in Treatment 28 upvotes 1 year ago

The discussion revolves around the frequency of applying topical finasteride for hair loss treatment. The main question is whether applying it every 4-5 days could still be effective, given that its half-life in the scalp tissue is 5-6 days.
