The discovery of animal cloning and subsequent development of cell reprogramming technology were quantum leaps as they led to the achievement of rejuvenation by cell reprogramming and the emerging view that aging is a reversible epigenetic process. Here, we will first summarize the experimental achievements over the last 7 years in cell and animal rejuvenation. Then, a comparison will be made between the principles of the cumulative DNA damage theory of aging and the basic facts underlying ...| BioMed Central

Background Androgenetic alopecia (AGA), also known as male or female pattern hair loss, is the most prevalent form of alopecia worldwide. Current treatments are based on hormone drugs, topical vasodilators and hair transplants. Newer options include stem cell therapy targeted at recovering the capacity for hair follicle regeneration. This study examines the effects of intradermally administering allogenic adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) per se or supplemented with ATP in a mouse model of di...| BioMed Central
