April 1998 in “PubMed” January 2026 in “Minia Journal of Medical Research” In this study, testosterone-induced alopecia in male rats led to significant thinning and follicular degeneration, but treatment with adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction cells markedly improved these histological changes, suggesting a potential role in hair follicle regeneration.
January 2026 in “Journal of Surgery and Research” In this study, researchers observed that in a limb ischemia model, vascular transplants preserved for 3 days had better recovery from ischemia-reperfusion injury compared to those preserved for 7 days, with less tissue edema and necrosis.
May 2025 in “Journal of Clinical Medicine” This study suggests that women with alopecia have decreased microcirculation oscillations, which may imply neuroinflammation as a factor in the disease's pathogenesis.
April 2024 in “Skin research and technology” This study found that combining a single SVF injection with PRP sessions did not significantly enhance hair growth outcomes compared to PRP injections alone in patients with androgenetic alopecia.
November 2022 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In this study, researchers observed that blood vessel maturation in mice involves neonatal endothelial cells expanding the capillary network through vessel regression and angiogenesis, with adult cells later maintaining stability and repair through specific signaling pathways.

July 2009 in “Mayo Clinic Proceedings” This case report describes a 66-year-old woman diagnosed with porphyria cutanea tarda, characterized by painless vesicular lesions on sun-exposed areas and associated with hemochromatosis, and managed effectively with phlebotomy.
June 2009 in “Mayo Clinic Proceedings” This report describes a 66-year-old woman's diagnosis of porphyria cutanea tarda, suggested by her painless blisters on sun-exposed areas, pink urine, and elevated urinary porphyrins.
55 citations
,
June 2012 in “Steroids” This study found that testosterone modulates vascular cell behavior through direct actions that do not rely on its conversion to estradiol.
