Very interesting ! It is so cheap, I might give it a try.Just ran across this study so this compound basically would upregulate the growth factors in the wound healing process!!
Carnosine is just a dipeptide ( Alanine + Histidine ) you can find it easily. It's used as food supplement generaly.Got a link to buy it online?
Great posts as usual! I always feel like you are on the brink of discovering something hugeNo. If you read the study. They make a topical out of this. It is not bogus science. This has been used for thousands of years in China for wound healing. (everything good for wound healing is good for HFs after dermarolling deep). Now the scientists pinned down the reason it is good. And can create a more concentrated version of it. It is due to quercetine and copper. Specific mix.
They show when applied topically after wound it generates new HF, and a lot.
Maybe I am missing something, but I cannot recall there being a topical that is natural that can do such thing. I forgot.
Either way, this and PDRN after wound healing seem like the most promising things I have seen in a while.
I posted a paper on that "published studies" about the state of HF regeneration. There is also another substance rhEPO (recombinant human EPO). Should also be available because athletes used to use it.
There is nothing out there right now that is more promising than wound healing. HS regeneration through isolation of DC cells and other "cloning" are, according to that paper, very far from clinical application because the follicle does not live long. Which is why the focus by Tsuji lately was to find a way to induce a HF to go through multiples cycles. That paper I posted puts everything in perspective.

Thanks, though I think that's a very small snippet of a paper isn't it? For example I couldn't find where it says "HS regeneration through isolation of DC cells and other "cloning" are, according to that paper, very far from clinical application because the follicle does not live long."@eeyore Here it is
I read the canosine thing, the numbers are not impressive franly. Quality of paper - at least the one I read on Rgate- is quite low. They even play with the size of before and after. The study that I linked up there on chinese herbs, is astounding according to people in the field, not me.
The first thing I looked up about carnosine was bio availability - and its almost non-existent. So pills do nothing, unless im missing something. Anyways, i got carnosine in liquid form from amazon. Gonna apply topically after needling once a week.oral always works better than a topical.....if it really would work, we only need keep on needling and take the carnosine pills daily (how i read 1 gr./day)......or i'm wrong ?....

When you consume carnosine by itself, your GI tract breaks it down into beta-alanine and histidine – its two amino acid constituents, and only a small amount of it is preserved at this time. Similarly, carnosine supplements typically contain less than 50% beta-alanine, and beta-alanine is a rate-limiting amino acid when making carnosine in the muscles.
Therefore, to achieve an optimal carnosine level in your body, a more effective and efficient method is to do it through beta-alanine intake.*
The one that goes under the tongue.Which one? Also, does anyone know if l-carnosine is the same thing?
