Did you mean Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions?

Glossary Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions

complex communication between surface-lining cells and loosely organized cells

Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions (EMI) refer to the complex communication between epithelial cells, which line surfaces and cavities of the body, and mesenchymal cells, which are more loosely organized and can differentiate into a variety of cell types. These interactions are crucial for processes like embryonic development, wound healing, and the formation of hair follicles, as they help coordinate cell behavior and tissue formation.

community Researchers working on ways to regenerate lost hair from stem cells identified a recipe for normal hair regeneration in the lab. “A method for cyclical regeneration of hair follicles from hair follicle stem cells and will help make hair follicle regeneration therapy a reality in the near future.”

263 upvotes 5 years ago

Hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and hair transplants have side effects and limitations. There is hope for future advancements in stem cell therapy and hair follicle regeneration, though skepticism about their effectiveness and timeline persists.

community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied

in Research 830 upvotes 2 years 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.
