5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Long-Term Culture of Skin Biopsies: Maintenance of Fibroblast Production and Competency of Reprogramming
This study investigated the long-term culture of skin biopsies to generate primary fibroblasts, which are crucial for experimental and therapeutic applications. Over 6-16 months, skin biopsy samples were cultured, resulting in 6-16 generations of fibroblasts. The study found that fibroblast morphology and physiology were maintained, although proliferation rates decreased over time. Gene expression changes were observed, but no significant DNA deletions or amplifications were detected. Importantly, fibroblasts from extended cultures retained the ability to be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells. These findings support the feasibility of long-term skin biopsy culture for producing large numbers of fibroblasts while preserving their functional integrity.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Mitochondrial Dysfunction: A Review of the Literature
Mitochondrial dysfunction is linked to various skin conditions and could be a target for treatments.
research Transient Mitochondrial DNA Double Strand Breaks in Mice Cause Accelerated Aging Phenotypes in a ROS-Dependent but p53/p21-Independent Manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.

5 / 209 resultscommunity VDPHL-01 is Overrated and Ridiculous. This is just Oral Minoxidil.
VDPHL-01 is essentially a slow-release oral minoxidil, which is already known to work for hair growth. The formulation includes other ingredients like Medrogestone, Valproic acid, Setipiprant, and Cetirizine, but their effectiveness and necessity are questioned.
community Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment
The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
community CRISPR Is Curing People Right Now. Genetic Hair Loss is Next?
CRISPR shows promise for treating hair loss by targeting specific genes. Current treatments include Minoxidil and finasteride, but CRISPR could offer a more precise solution, though it is still expensive and in early stages.
community Physician here AMA – 30M oral Fin 1-1.25 mg daily
Hair loss treatments, specifically the use of finasteride, microneedling and potentially oral minoxidil. People discussed their experiences with finasteride, its effects on sexual behaviors, as well as potential solutions such as tadalafil or using other growth factor signal peptides for hope in curing male pattern baldness.
community My Theory Regarding a Cause and Cure for Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss theory suggests imbalance between Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) and Androgen Receptor (AR) activation. Proposed treatment includes upregulating VDR, downregulating AR, and improving mitochondrial health.
