research Scarless wound healing: finding the right cells and signals
The right cells and signals can potentially lead to scarless wound healing, with a mix of natural and external wound healing controllers possibly being the best way to achieve this.
research Preconditioning with far-infrared irradiation enhances proliferation, cell survival, and migration of rat bone marrow-derived stem cells via CXCR4-ERK pathways
Far-infrared radiation improves stem cell growth and movement, helping heart therapy.
research Plerixafor Biases CXCR4 Signaling Through β-Arrestin to Promote Melanogenesis via β-Catenin–MITF Activation
Plerixafor may help treat pigmentation disorders by promoting skin repigmentation.
research CXCL12 inhibits hair growth through CXCR4
CXCL12 protein slows down hair growth through its receptor CXCR4. Blocking this can potentially increase hair growth.
research Mechanical Stretch Upregulates SDF-1α in Skin Tissue and Induces Migration of Circulating Bone Marrow-Derived Stem Cells into the Expanded Skin
Stretching skin increases a certain protein that attracts stem cells, helping skin regeneration.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Protac degradation of the androgen receptor in mice shows good efficacy and no systemic drug could be found
The efficacy of degrading the androgen receptor through dermal application in DP cells, a delivery system for topical drugs that involves dissolving microneedles, and rosemary oil as an alternative anti-androgen.
community Pyrilutamide binding affinity is similar to RU
Comparing the effectiveness of RU58841, Pyrilutamide and CB-03-01 as treatments for hair loss, with people discussing different aspects such as binding affinity, time of inhibition, safety data and cost.
community The pessimism about the Crisp Cas 9 is excessive
CRISPR Cas9 could potentially treat baldness by targeting specific genes in hair follicles without affecting other body functions. There is optimism about its future use, despite ethical concerns and the current reliance on treatments like minoxidil and finasteride.
community Binding affinity does not equal potency for anti androgens? Comparing pyrilutimide to cb-03-01
Pyrilutimide and CB-03-01, two treatments for hair loss, have similar clinical trial results despite different binding affinities to androgen receptors. Factors other than binding affinity, like the time a drug stays bound to the receptor, may influence their effectiveness.
community EMA is re-examining Winlevi (clascoterone at lower concentration)
Clascoterone in Winlevi, a topical AR antagonist, is being re-examined due to concerns about HPA axis suppression in adolescents, but it's unlikely to be banned for adult use in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). The European Medicines Agency recommended refusing Winlevi for acne vulgaris, but this may not affect Breezula's approval for AGA.
