    GlossaryDermal Stem Cells (dermal progenitor cells)

    specialized skin cells that regenerate and repair dermal tissue

    Dermal Stem Cells, also known as dermal progenitor cells, are specialized cells found in the skin's dermis layer that have the ability to self-renew and differentiate into various cell types, including fibroblasts, which are crucial for wound healing and collagen production. These cells play a significant role in skin regeneration and repair, making them a key focus in research on anti-aging treatments and therapies for skin-related conditions.

      in Research/Science  17 upvotes 1 week 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.
