Efficacy and safety of microneedling radiofrequency in patterned hair loss.

Objectives: We aimed to assess the improvement of patterned hair loss with microneedling radiofrequency (MNRF) and its adverse effects in patients.

Material And Methods: An open-label study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MNRF for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia. Patients diagnosed with patterned hair loss received three MNRF treatment sessions once monthly.

Effects of Simvastatin on Gene Expression and Alkaline Phosphatase Activity in the MG-63 Cell Line Treated With Hyperglycemia for Bone Regeneration.

Background Dental implants have become a widespread treatment option for replacing missing teeth. Adequate bone is required for the placement of dental implants, in the absence of which, augmentation by bone regeneration is done. Antiresorptive drugs are used as treatment procedures for bone regeneration.

Fibrous protein composite scaffolds (3D) for tissue regeneration: An in vitro study on skeletal muscle regeneration.

The present study explores the differentiation of myoblasts in bioengineered 3D composite scaffolds containing keratin and gelatin. Based on the composition and rheological properties three different scaffolds namely HM1, HM2 and HM3 were prepared, characterized and employed for the present study. The scaffolds were then subjected to CC myoblasts differentiation under in vitro conditions as per the standard protocols.

Hierarchical and synergistic self-assembly in composites of model wormlike micellar-polymers and nanoparticles results in nanostructures with diverse morphologies.

Using Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate the self-assembly of model nanoparticles inside a matrix of model equilibrium polymers (or matrix of wormlike micelles) as a function of the polymeric matrix density and the excluded volume parameter between polymers and nanoparticles. In this paper, we show morphological transitions in the system architecture via synergistic self-assembly of nanoparticles and the equilibrium polymers. In a synergistic self-assembly, the resulting morphology of the system is a result of the interaction between the nanoparticles and the polymers and corresponding re-organization of both the assemblies.

Hierarchical self-assembly: Self-organized nanostructures in a nematically ordered matrix of self-assembled polymeric chains.

We report many different nanostructures which are formed when model nanoparticles of different sizes (diameter σn) are allowed to aggregate in a background matrix of semiflexible self-assembled polymeric wormlike micellar chains. The different nanostructures are formed by the dynamical arrest of phase-separating mixtures of micellar monomers and nanoparticles. The different morphologies obtained are the result of an interplay of the available free volume, the elastic energy of deformation of polymers, the density (chemical potential) of the nanoparticles in the polymer matrix, and, of course, the ratio of the size of self-assembling nanoparticles and self-avoidance diameter of polymeric chains.
