Mesenchymal stem cells and regeneration
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are stromal cells which self-renew and differentiate to mesodermal lineages. In addition, their capacity to enhance tissue restoration has made them become a central focus in regenerative applications. Their main positive effects are based on immunomodulation and paracrine factors involved in tissue homeostasis, angiogenesis, wound healing and antiapoptosis. MSCs secrete anti-inflammatory […]
Ageing and Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA)
Ageing is a natural human process with visible and invisible signs mainly caused by oxidant agents accumulation. Hair follicle cycle can also be negatively affected leading to a diminished hair growth over time. AGA and ageing: common features and implications Cellular senescence is a state in which cells permanently stop dividing while remaining metabolically active […]
Habits and androgenetic alopecia
Nowadays an increasing physical appearance concern linked to a better quality of life is more and more evident. The imposition of aesthetic ideals through social media makes especially young people considering common baldness as a major worrying issue. Stressful urban daily routines also emphasize androgenetic alopecia (AGA) progression to severe states prematurely. In this context, […]
The Market for Alopecia Treatments and the Promise of Advanced Therapies
Androgenetic alopecia is a progressive condition driven by the effects of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) on hair follicles in the scalp Current treatment strategies can be classified into pharmacological (hormonal and non-hormonal) treatments, physical interventions, and emerging therapeutic alternatives. Pharmacological treatments Hormonal Treatments Hormonal treatments such us Finasteride and Dutasteride inhibit 5-alpha-reductase enzyme which converts testosterone to a […]
Androgenetic Alopecia and Mental Health
Androgenetic alopecia is the most common type of hair loss. Despite its high prevalence, it is often considered a minor dermatological condition, defined solely by its physical manifestations. However, its impact extends beyond physical appearance, significantly affecting self-esteem, anxiety levels, depression and overall quality of life. Hair plays a crucial role in self-identity and social perception. […]
Androgenic alopecia: conventional treatment options and innovative approaches
Current Landscape of the Alopecia Treatment Market Alopecia is a condition that affects a significant portion of the global population, impacting not only on physical appearance but also on self-esteem, mental health and overall quality of life. Studies have shown that affected individuals often experience increased levels of anxiety, depression and social withdrawal due […]
Melanoma and androgenetic alopecia
Alopecia not only affects physical appearance but can also increase the risk of serious health problems such as melanoma. Melanoma is a cancer that develops in melanocytes specialized skin cells that determine hair and skin colour through the production of the pigment called melanin. Lack of hair in people with alopecia directly exposes the scalp to harmful ultraviolet […]
