research Topical Gene Electrotransfer to the Epidermis of Hairless Guinea Pig by Non-Invasive Multielectrode Array
The method safely and efficiently delivers genes to the skin but may not work for conditions needing high levels of gene products.
research Basic Concepts, Current Evidence, And Future Potential For Gene Therapy In Managing Cutaneous Wounds
Gene therapy shows promise for improving wound healing, but more research is needed for human use.
research Influence of Recombinant Codon-Optimized Plasmid DNA Encoding VEGF and FGF2 on Co-Induction of Angiogenesis
Transfected cells with VEGF and FGF2 genes improve skin wound healing by enhancing blood flow and regeneration.
research Ischemic Skin Flaps: What to Use to Save Them? A Narrative Review
Various substances, quitting smoking, and certain topical applications can enhance the survival of skin flaps used in surgery. Oxygen-free radicals play a role in tissue injury, but certain treatments can have beneficial effects.
research Blank Spots in the Map of Human Skin: The Challenge for Xenotransplantation

5 / 342 resultscommunity Hair Loss Breakthrough: Keratin Microsphere Gel Initiates Hair Regrowth in Days by Directly Targeting Follicles and Boosting Gene Expression - Gilmore Health News
A new hair loss treatment involving Keratin Microsphere Gel is discussed, with skepticism and jokes about its effectiveness and comparisons to other treatments. Users are doubtful and make light of the situation, referencing past disappointments and the study's focus on mice.
community TWIST-1 and the cure: Is it really that easy?
TWIST-1 gene's role in hair loss and potential as a treatment target. Inhibiting TWIST-1 may prolong hair growth and reduce hair follicle sensitivity to DHT.
community Platelet rich plasma treatment
A 27-year-old male experienced rapid hair loss after dengue fever, which activated a balding gene. The doctor suggested platelet-rich plasma treatment for hair regrowth.
community Rethinking DHT and Hair Loss: Are We Targeting the Wrong Enemy?
Blocking DHT is not a cure for hair loss; instead, altering how scalp follicles respond to DHT might be more effective. Current treatments like topical finasteride and minoxidil are temporary solutions, and future approaches may involve gene therapy and bioengineering to change follicle behavior.
community Some common misconceptions about why there have been no breakthroughs in treatments for so long and why a one and done cure is almost impossible.
Developing new hair loss treatments is challenging due to the complexity and cost of trials, and a permanent cure is unlikely soon. Current treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are used continuously because hair loss is progressive, and future possibilities include gene editing and hair cloning.
