Human Endometrial Extracellular Matrix Hydrogel Facilitated Endometrial Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Endometrial Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Adequate thickness of the uterine lining is crucial for women with thin or damaged endometrium to achieve pregnancies. Endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (eMSC) can facilitate the cyclical repair and regeneration of the human endometrium. In this study, the human endometrium derived extracellular matrix hydrogel supports the growth of eMSC promoting ...

Natural Sweetener Stevioside‐Based Dissolving Microneedles Solubilize Minoxidil for the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study addresses limitations of minoxidil (MXD) in treating androgenetic alopecia by using stevioside (STV) as a solubilizing agent and microneedle (MN) material. STV enhanced MXD's solubility and skin absorption, leading to improved drug delivery and significant hair regrowth in animal models, demonstrating strong potential for AGA treatment ...
