    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 Riken develops new method for culturing hair follicles

       41 upvotes 7 years ago
      A new stem cell method for culturing hair follicles is being developed as an alternative to Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. There are concerns about its cost and accessibility despite plans for commercialization.

      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.

      community Update and new paper from Dr tsuji

      in Update  26 upvotes 6 years ago
      Hair follicle regenerative therapy is being developed, with clinical trials planned in Japan, potentially allowing for hair cloning and eliminating the need for treatments like finasteride. If successful, the treatment could be available in Japan by 2025, but widespread access and affordability may take longer.
