GlossaryPluripotency Markers

indicate a cell's potential to become various cell types

Pluripotency markers are specific proteins or genes that indicate a cell's ability to develop into almost any type of cell in the body. These markers are used by scientists to identify and study stem cells, which have the potential to regenerate damaged tissues and are crucial in medical research and regenerative medicine.

community A Theory on Why Microneedling Works

170 upvotes 6 years ago

Microneedling may enhance hair regrowth by transferring stem cells to dormant follicles, improving the effects of minoxidil. Users discuss using microneedling with needle lengths around 1.5mm to stimulate hair growth.

community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?

in Research/Science 141 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.

community Hair and normal skin created from human pluripotent stem cells for the first time

in Update 88 upvotes 6 years ago

Human pluripotent stem cells have been used to create hair and skin, potentially offering a new solution for baldness. A user also mentioned starting finasteride but experiencing unexpected hair thinning.
