research Hydrogel forming microneedles loaded with VEGF and Ritlecitinib/polyhydroxyalkanoates nanoparticles for mini-invasive androgenetic alopecia treatment

April 2024 in “Bioactive materials”

This study found that a microneedle system delivering VEGF and Ritlecitinib improved hair regeneration in mice with androgenetic alopecia, showing faster anagen onset and better hair quality compared to minoxidil.

research Injectable silk nanofiber hydrogels as stem cell carriers to accelerate wound healing

15 citations , January 2021 in “Journal of Materials Chemistry B”

In this study, shear-thinning silk nanofiber hydrogels were found to enhance retention of mesenchymal stem cells and accelerate wound healing in rat models.

research Human Fibroblast‐Derived Matrix Hydrogel Accelerates Regenerative Wound Remodeling Through the Interactions with Macrophages

March 2024 in “Advanced science”

This study observed that a novel extracellular matrix hydrogel made from human fibroblast-derived matrix improved wound healing in animal models, showing significant effects such as hair follicle formation, reduced inflammation, enhanced pro-healing growth factor levels, and interaction with macrophages, compared to traditional collagen hydrogels.

research Sericin hydrogels promote skin wound healing with effective regeneration of hair follicles and sebaceous glands after complete loss of epidermis and dermis

84 citations , January 2018 in “Biomaterials Science”

Sericin hydrogels heal skin wounds well, regrowing hair and glands with less scarring.

research RGDSP-functionalized peptide hydrogel stimulates growth factor secretion via integrin αv/PI3K/AKT axis for improved wound healing by human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells

6 citations , October 2024 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology”

This study reported that the use of composite RGDmix hydrogel improved the survival and proliferation of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and increased growth factor expression, enhancing wound healing through the RGDSP/integrin αv/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

community Growth factors, VEGF, And more,possible permanent cure for people with moderate hairloss?

3 upvotes 2 years ago

The user discusses using dutasteride to stop hair loss and bimatoprost for regrowth. They plan to use VEGF with hydrogels for potentially permanent hair follicle improvement and suggest PRP as an alternative.

community Bee venom better than minoxidil?

in Research/Science 1061 upvotes 9 months ago

Bee venom at 0.001% concentration was more effective than 2% minoxidil in promoting hair growth in mice, possibly due to increased growth factors and reduced inflammation. Caution is advised due to potential allergic reactions and the reliance on animal data.

community PP405 Won't Work Long Term: Hair Follicle Damage Due to Abuse of the ISR System

67 upvotes 11 months ago

PP405 may damage hair follicles if used long-term, suggesting cycling might be necessary. Combining it with finasteride could help maintain hair growth.

community Long term finasteride users; Did you notice any improvement after 2 years?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 14 upvotes 3 years ago

Long term Finasteride users and whether or not they have noticed improvements after two years of use, with other treatments such as Minoxidil and dermarolling also discussed. Some replies suggest that improvement is possible even beyond the two year mark while others caution against believing studies backed by the Post-Finasteride Foundation.

community Seeking Suggestions for VEGF Gene Therapy in Hair Transplants

in Research 112 upvotes 5 months ago

A user is exploring VEGF gene therapy to enhance hair transplant results, considering measuring hair shaft diameter and growth rate. Suggestions include using phototrichograms and possibly adding PRP, though its effectiveness is uncertain.

learn Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor

Is Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) available as a topical treatment, or is it only stimulated indirectly? VEGF is not available as a topical treatment for hair loss.
How does Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) differ from DHT-blocking treatments for androgenic alopecia? VEGF promotes blood vessel growth, while DHT-blocking treatments reduce hormone effects on hair follicles.
Are there risks or side effects associated with treatments that increase Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)? In a VEGF gene-therapy trial for leg artery disease, raising VEGF caused more leg swelling, and excess VEGF drives leaky, abnormal vessels in mice and in eye disease. No long-term studies have tested the safety of treatments that raise VEGF in the scalp.
