research 577 Successful allogeneic epidermal grafting of chronic recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa wounds from hematopoietic cell donors in the outpatient setting
Skin grafts from related donors significantly healed chronic wounds in patients with a severe skin condition over a year.
research Epidermal Notch signalling: differentiation, cancer and adhesion
Notch signalling helps skin cells differentiate and prevents tumors.
research 840 Early and late matrix progenitors form the terminally differentiated cell layers of the hair follicle
Early and late matrix progenitors in hair follicles create different cell layers, with early ones forming the companion layer and later ones forming the inner root sheath and hair shaft.
research Wounding induces dedifferentiation of epidermal Gata6+ cells and acquisition of stem cell properties
Wounded skin cells can revert to stem cells and help heal.
research Non-canonical Wnt signaling promotes directed migration of intestinal stem cells to sites of injury
Non-canonical Wnt signaling helps intestinal stem cells move to injury sites for tissue repair.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity PP405 Won’t Work: Follicle Is Miniaturized, Fibrosed, And Missing Key Support Cells
PP405 is ineffective for miniaturized, fibrosed hair follicles in androgenetic alopecia. AMP303 may activate hair follicle stem cells, but minoxidil and finasteride are still the main treatments.
community Please explain this Minoxidil phenomena
The post discusses the difference in effects of Minoxidil (Min) on scalp and facial hair. The user questions why Min-induced hair growth on the scalp is temporary, while facial hair growth seems permanent, even after stopping Min. They propose theories, including different Min mechanisms on body and facial hair, the role of DHT, and the possibility of not achieving fully terminal hair. The responses include personal experiences and theories about Min's effects on hair growth.
community Finally, some real breakthroughs. A comparison of the two leading baldness treatments: PP405 versus ABS-201
PP405 and ABS-201 are promising treatments for male pattern baldness. PP405 shows rapid hair growth in human trials, while ABS-201 shows significant regrowth in animal studies but is still in early human trials.
community My understanding of how androgenetic alopecia works (plus FIN and DUT)
Androgenetic alopecia is affected by scalp DHT levels, not sensitivity, with treatments like finasteride and dutasteride aiming to optimize these levels. Personalized DHT management is crucial for effective hair growth.
community Minoxidil Response Bottlenecks: Why Sulfation and Transport Matter (And Where Tretinoin Fits In)
Minoxidil's effectiveness is limited by the need for sulfation and proper transport to hair follicles, with tretinoin potentially enhancing its effects by promoting enzyme activity and keratinocyte differentiation. Tretinoin may improve minoxidil's response by boosting the expression of necessary enzymes and transporters.
