Minoxidil Promotes Hair Growth through Stimulation of Growth Factor Release from Adipose-Derived Stem Cells
MeAdipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have stimulatory effects on dermal papilla (DP) cells to promote hair-growth. For example, ASCs secrete multiple growth factors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factors (bFGF), which can increase the
proliferation of DP cells.
Concomitant Transurethral and Transvaginal-Periurethral Injection of Autologous Adipose Derived Stem Cells for Treatment of Female Stress Urinary Incontinence: A Phase One Clinical Trial
Urinary incontinence is a common medical problem, affecting more than 200 million patients in the world. It is much more common in female than in male population. International Consultation on incontinence reported that approximately 49% of all urinary incontinent women suffered from stress urinary incontinence (SUI), 22% from urge incontinence and 29% from mixed incontinence.
