    technique growing cells in three dimensions for realistic conditions

    3D cell culture is a technique used to grow cells in an environment that more closely mimics the natural conditions inside the human body compared to traditional two-dimensional (2D) cultures. By allowing cells to interact in all three dimensions, this method provides a more accurate representation of how cells behave, grow, and respond to treatments, making it particularly valuable for research in areas like cancer, tissue engineering, and drug development.

      community Keratin microspheres - breakthrough

      in Research/Science  13 upvotes 8 months ago
      A gel of keratin microspheres promotes hair follicle growth, showing similar effectiveness to minoxidil in mice. The treatment activates hair growth pathways and reduces inflammation, with potential applications in drug delivery for hair-related disorders.

      community 3 months on minoxidil and microneedling alone

      in Progress Pictures  636 upvotes 2 years ago
      This conversation was about a user's progress pictures from using minoxidil and microneedling to treat hair loss. Other users suggested finasteride as an additional treatment, while cautioning that the drug could have permanent side effects.
      Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies

      community Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies

      in Research  692 upvotes 3 months ago
      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
