    TLDR Stem cells show promise in speeding up wound healing and tissue regeneration.
    The document reviewed the potential of progenitor stem cells in enhancing cutaneous wound healing and regeneration, highlighting their ability to accelerate wound repair and promote tissue regeneration. Despite the availability of various therapeutic interventions for chronic wounds, success was limited, prompting the exploration of stem cell therapies. Preliminary findings from preclinical and clinical studies were promising, although the exact mechanisms by which stem cells aid the healing process remained unclear. The review focused on existing treatment modalities, the role of interstitial and exogenous adult stem cells, and the possible mechanisms involved in wound healing.

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

      community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia

      in Research/Science  16 upvotes 1 day ago
      Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.

      The mechanism of Androgenic Alopecia and practical applications of treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, dermarolling, scalp massages, anti-fungals, progesterone, estrogen, PPAR-γ activators, reducing oxidative stress, and scalp exercises. It explains why DHT is important in AA and how other factors might be involved such as hypoxia, increased DKK-1 expression, morphological changes to the scalp, skull growth during childhood/puberty, and blood flow.

      in Chat  25 upvotes 1 year ago
      A user suggests that deeper microneedling with Verteporfin injections might help regrow hair in areas with scar tissue, alongside a DHT blocker. Another user explains that hair loss might be due to reduced Wnt/β-Catenin signaling and suggests that treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and microneedling could potentially reverse it.
