Cow placenta extract has strong antioxidant effects and can delay skin aging in mice.
research Matrisomal Components Involved in Regenerative Wound Healing in Axolotl and Acomys: Implications for Biomaterial Development
Certain genes are more active during wound healing in axolotl and Acomys, which could help develop materials that improve human wound healing and regeneration.
research Hyaluronate Fragments Reverse Skin Atrophy by a CD44-Dependent Mechanism
Hyaluronate fragments can help reverse skin thinning by working with the CD44 receptor.
research Effects of Chronic Inhibition of Testosterone Metabolism on Cardiac Remodeling After Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Myocardial Damage in Gonadectomized Rats
Testosterone reduces heart damage and inflammation after injury.
research An ERK-Dependent Molecular Switch Antagonizes Fibrosis and Promotes Regeneration in Spiny Mice
High levels of ERK activity are key for tissue regeneration in spiny mice, and activating ERK can potentially redirect scar-forming healing towards regenerative healing in mammals.

Microneedling for hair restoration involves daily use of a 0.3 mm device and weekly use of a 0.5 mm device. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil can enhance hair growth.
community [study analysis] Microdose of topical Finasteride for all the benefits and none of the sides?
Topical finasteride as a potential alternative to oral finasteride for reducing DHT levels on the scalp with fewer side effects, and other hair loss treatments such as minoxidil.
community COMPLETE OVERVIEW of the Treatment of androgenetic alopecia in men
Male androgenetic alopecia is commonly treated with topical minoxidil and oral finasteride, both requiring continuous use. Other options include hair restoration surgery, dutasteride, light therapy, and camouflaging agents.
community New and Interesting HairLoss Studies/Papers/Reviews
Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.
community A concise, easy-to-understand post on Androgenic Alopecia theory and its practical applications
The mechanism of Androgenic Alopecia and practical applications of treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, dermarolling, scalp massages, anti-fungals, progesterone, estrogen, PPAR-γ activators, reducing oxidative stress, and scalp exercises. It explains why DHT is important in AA and how other factors might be involved such as hypoxia, increased DKK-1 expression, morphological changes to the scalp, skull growth during childhood/puberty, and blood flow.
