Did you mean Regenerative Capacity?

GlossaryRegenerative Capacity

ability to repair or regrow damaged cells and tissues

Regenerative capacity refers to the ability of an organism or tissue to repair or replace damaged cells and tissues. In the context of hair, it involves the hair follicles' ability to regrow hair after it has been lost due to injury, disease, or other factors. This capacity varies among different tissues and organisms, with some having a high regenerative potential, like liver tissue, while others, like certain types of nerve cells, have limited ability to regenerate.

community Has anyone asked a hair transplant surgeon to consider using verteporfin during their surgery?

in Research/Science 8 upvotes 3 years ago

Exploring the potential of using verteporfin during hair transplants to minimize scarring and regenerate follicles, as well as discussing a possible standardized protocol for this treatment.

community Is GT20029 a cure for further hairloss? Also what do you estimate its price to be?

in Research/Science 9 upvotes 3 years ago

The conversation discusses the potential of GT20029 to stop hair loss and possibly regrow hair, considering the body's regenerative abilities. No specific treatments were mentioned due to the original post being removed.

community Proof DHT is not the main cause of hair loss. TRPS1 Gene and Protein might be. PP405 won’t work. AMP-303 might!

in Research/Science 145 upvotes 4 months ago

Hair loss may be linked to the TRPS1 gene and protein, not just DHT. Amplifica's AMP-303 targets mesenchymal stem cells and shows promise in treating hair loss, unlike Pelage's PP405.

community Dutasteride absolutely nukes hair DHT

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 486 upvotes 1 year ago

Dutasteride significantly reduces DHT levels, potentially more effectively than finasteride, and is used to treat hair loss. Some users report side effects like reduced libido and mood changes, while others experience hair regrowth and increased testosterone.

community New Hair Loss Cure: AMP-303 Is Back. It’s what PP405 should have been.

in Research/Science 5 upvotes 3 months ago

AMP-303 and AMP-601 are new hair loss treatments targeting dermal papilla cells, with AMP-303 showing early efficacy in transitioning vellus hairs to terminal hairs after one injection. Further clinical trials are planned, and these treatments are seen as promising due to their biologic approach and less frequent application compared to daily treatments.
