    TLDR Mesenchymal Stem Cell Conditioned Media can significantly regrow hair in alopecia areata patients.
    This case study explores the use of Mesenchymal Stem Cell-derived Conditioned Media (MSC-CM) for treating a patient with alopecia areata, an autoimmune disorder causing hair loss. The patient underwent a two-month topical treatment with MSC-CM, resulting in significant hair regrowth in the vertex scalp area, as indicated by a reduction in the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score from 6% to nearly 0%. The study suggests that MSC-CM, which contains growth factors and cytokines, can effectively promote hair regeneration by influencing hair follicle growth and vascularization.

      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
