research Dietary Grape Powder Inhibits Atopic Dermatitis-Like Skin Lesions in NC/Nga Mice
Eating grape powder may reduce the severity of skin allergy symptoms.
research Feasibility of Repairing Skin Defects by VEGF165 Gene-Modified iPS-HFSCs Seeded on a 3D Printed Scaffold Containing Astragalus Polysaccharide
The new method using gene-modified stem cells and a 3D printed scaffold improved skin repair in mice.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Cutaneous Signals of Immune System Disease
Skin issues can indicate immune system problems.
research The Dynamics of the Skin’s Immune System
The skin has a complex immune system that is essential for protection and healing, requiring more research for better wound treatment.

community Opinions on Scalp fibrosis and DHT?
The conversation discusses the theory that scalp fibrosis contributes to male pattern baldness (MPB) by increasing DHT concentration, and mentions treatments like Minoxidil. The user seeks opinions on the theory and the effectiveness of scalp massages.
community Rosemary oil's potency as a dht blocker
Rosemary extract showed high inhibitory activity against DHT, similar to finasteride and dutasteride, but the conversation includes skepticism about its effectiveness in humans since the study was done on mice and rosemary oil is often considered ineffective based on personal experiences. Some suggest trying rosemary oil alongside other treatments, while others emphasize the difference between the extract used in the study and the oil.
community It's over. Hairline has fallen. Millions must shave.
The conclusion of the conversation is that the user has tried various medications and treatments for hair loss, including minoxidil, finasteride, microneedling, and nizoral shampoo, but has not seen any progress. They have decided to shave their head. Other users suggest options such as hair transplants, RU58841, hair units, and scalp micropigmentation.
community Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies
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.
