    GlossaryHippo signaling pathway

    biological system controlling cell growth, division, and death

    The Hippo signaling pathway is a biological system that controls cell growth, division, and death, playing a crucial role in regulating organ size and tissue regeneration. It involves a series of proteins that communicate signals from the cell surface to the nucleus, ensuring that cells stop growing when they reach a certain size, which helps prevent cancer and other diseases.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 1 year ago
      Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
