5 / 1000+ results research The interaction of hydrocortisone and thyroxine during fetal adipose tissue differentiation: CCAAT enhancing binding protein expression and capillary cytodifferentiation.
This study observed that combined treatment with thyroxine and hydrocortisone increased lipid accretion and fat cell development in hypophysectomized fetal pigs, suggesting a key role of these hormones in fetal adipogenesis.
research Development, Characterization, and Use of a Fetal Skin Cell Bank for Tissue Engineering in Wound Healing
This study concludes that fetal skin cells can significantly enhance wound healing and reduce scarring when used to treat severe burns and various wounds in children.
research Whole-Cell Bioprocessing of Human Fetal Cells for Tissue Engineering of Skin
This review discusses the potential use of cultured primary fetal cells from a single organ donation to produce therapeutic products, emphasizing the need for process consistency and safety verification, but reports no clinical results.
research A model system for long-term serum-free suspension organ culture of human fetal tissues: experiments on digits and skin from multiple body regions
This study found that a serum-free DMEM-F12 medium with 45% oxygen best supports in vitro development and differentiation of human fetal skin, closely mimicking the in vivo state.

5 / 86 resultscommunity Reverse hair loss w/ fecal transplants lol?
Fecal microbiota transplants (FMT) are discussed as a potential treatment for hair loss, but they are not effective for androgenic alopecia. The conversation also mentions that FMT is FDA-approved for recurrent C. diff infections and is being explored for other conditions.
community Finasteride is a risk in pregnancy with unprotected sex
Finasteride may pose a risk during pregnancy, so using a condom is recommended if a partner is pregnant. It is advised to stop finasteride before trying to conceive due to potential effects on fetal development.
community Study: There is 70x Higher Unconjugated DHT in Feces Compared To Blood Levels in Young Adults - Gut Microbiota Manages DHT Recycling and Metabolism
Gut microbiota significantly influences androgen metabolism, impacting hair loss treatments like finasteride. Probiotics, dietary changes, and fecal microbiota transplants may help manage DHT levels and improve hair health.
community What if DHT is not the vilan.
Hair loss may be influenced more by inflammation, microbiome imbalances, and gut health than DHT. Treatments discussed include minoxidil, finasteride, RU58841, fecal microbiota transplants, and JAK inhibitors.
community FYI you can't donate blood when on fin/dut
People on finasteride or dutasteride cannot donate blood due to the risk of birth defects if the blood is given to a pregnant woman. It's advised to stop finasteride for a month and dutasteride for six months before donating.
