Did you mean In Vitro Models?

GlossaryIn Vitro Models

experimental systems studying biological processes outside living organisms

In Vitro Models refer to experimental systems used to study biological processes outside of a living organism, typically in a controlled laboratory environment. These models often involve the use of cell cultures or tissue samples to investigate cellular behaviors, drug responses, or disease mechanisms, providing valuable insights without the ethical and practical complexities of in vivo (within a living organism) studies.

community Study published yesterday : "Brassica oleracea extract, glucosinlates and sulforaphane promote hair growth in vitro and Ex vivo"

in Research/Science 35 upvotes 5 years ago

The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, specifically Brassica oleracea extract, glucosinolates, and sulforaphane, and their potential to promote hair growth. Users also mention minoxidil and finasteride as existing treatments.

community Looks like a real cure to the root of baldness (DHT-induced senescence) was proven earlier this year

in Research/Science 739 upvotes 3 years ago

A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.

community Study on Sugar Intake on Male Pattern Hair Loss

in Research/Science 20 upvotes 3 years ago

Excessive sugar and high-fat diets are linked to male pattern hair loss, with sweet beverages being a significant factor. Moderation in diet is advised, as diet alone may not fully prevent hair loss due to other factors like DHT sensitivity.

community Could coffee contribute to hair loss?

in Research/Science 4 upvotes 4 years ago

Coffee may negatively impact hair health due to its vasoconstrictor effects, potential to increase DHT, and interference with nutrient absorption. There is no strong clinical evidence linking caffeine to hair loss or regrowth in humans, but moderation is advised.

community Vitamin C and hair growth PH levels

in Product 33 upvotes 4 years ago

The conversation is about using vitamin C and Magnesium L-Threonate for hair growth by reducing DHT binding to dermal papilla cells. The original post about vitamin C's pH levels and sebum control was possibly removed by a moderator.
