research 692 Study of the impact of SKPs’ secreted factors and of a botanical extract derived from jasmine on keratinocytes growth and reconstructed human epidermis thickness
Jasmine extract helps skin cell growth and makes artificial skin thicker, especially when used with skin-derived precursors.
research Biomaterials Functionalized with MSC Secreted Extracellular Vesicles and Soluble Factors for Tissue Regeneration
Biomaterials with MSC-derived substances could improve tissue repair and have advantages over direct cell therapy.
research The effect of ovine secreted soluble factors on human dermal papilla cell aggregation
Sheep-derived factors improve human hair cell clustering, which may help hair growth.
research Androgen-Dependent Beard Dermal Papilla Cells Secrete Autocrine Growth Factor(s) in Response to Testosterone Unlike Scalp Cells
Beard cells, unlike scalp cells, produce growth factors in response to testosterone, which may explain differences in hair growth.
research Heterogeneity in amount of growth factors secreted by platelets in platelet‐rich plasma samples from alopecia patients
PRP therapy for alopecia shows inconsistent results due to natural variability in growth factor secretion by platelets.

5 / 27 resultscommunity Are Fin sides hereditary? And questions on steps to take before starting inc. supplements (22M)
A 22-year-old male experiencing hair thinning is considering starting finasteride but is concerned about potential side effects and hereditary factors. While waiting to access finasteride, he plans to use pumpkin seed oil, saw palmetto, biotin, and vitamins, and is advised to check blood levels before starting treatment.
community REVOLUTION in AUGUST: New possibilities according to Dr. Muñoz (pinacidil, cromakalim, diazoxide and nicorandil)
Dr. Muñoz's discovery suggests that targeting potassium channels in fibroblasts could reactivate hair growth, offering new treatment possibilities for alopecia. Potential strategies include using minoxidil, diazoxide, and other potassium channel openers, as well as bioelectric devices and direct growth factor applications.
community Minoxidil can prevent hair follicle miniaturization!?
Minoxidil can prevent hair follicle miniaturization, not just stimulate hair growth. Finasteride and dutasteride don't work for everyone, suggesting DHT may not be the sole cause of hair loss; hair loss could be due to multiple factors, including autoimmune conditions.
community Hair repigmentation of poliosis circumscripta in androgenetic alopecia patient treated with exosomes and fractional picosecond laser
Exosomes combined with fractional picosecond laser treatment were effective in treating androgenetic alopecia and promoting repigmentation in white hair patches. The role of exosomes in hair repigmentation, particularly in conditions like poliosis, is not well-studied.
community Increased adipose tissue (being overweight) in males may increase likelyhood of finasterde side effects
Being overweight may increase finasteride side effects due to higher aromatase activity converting testosterone to estradiol. Maintaining a healthy weight could reduce these side effects.
