Glossary Bioengineered Hair Follicles

artificially created hair follicles using biological techniques

Bioengineered Hair Follicles are hair follicles that have been artificially created or grown in a laboratory setting using biological techniques. These follicles are developed by combining cells, such as dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes, to mimic the natural hair growth process. This technology holds promise for treating hair loss conditions like alopecia by potentially providing a renewable source of hair follicles for transplantation.

learn KY19382

compound that activates Wnt/β-catenin to promote hair regrowth and create new hair follicles

How does KY19382 actually stimulate dormant hair follicles to grow again? KY19382 stimulates dormant hair follicles by reactivating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

learn Follistatin

glycoprotein that inhibits TGF-β and promotes hair growth by antagonizing activin

learn Beta Polypeptide

learn Thymosin Beta 4

learn Stem Cell Factor

learn Biotin

Biotinyl-GHK: a miracle ingredient against hair loss? Biotinyl-GHK (biotinoyl tripeptide-1) is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss medicine; the published studies test it only inside multi-ingredient complexes such as Procapil, so no result can be attributed to the peptide itself.

learn SCUBE3

How does SCUBE3 work on hair follicles compared to treatments like minoxidil or finasteride? Laboratory research in mice reports that SCUBE3, a protein released by dermal papilla cells, signals dormant follicles to grow through the TGF-β pathway downstream of Hedgehog; minoxidil and finasteride instead work on blood flow to the follicle and on DHT, and unlike SCUBE3 they have decades of human trial data behind them. SCUBE3 has not been tested in human clinical trials and is not available as a medicine.

learn Platelet-Rich Plasma

What is Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Beta Polypeptide, and how does it help stimulate new hair growth? PDGF-BB is a growth factor that signals to dermal papilla cells and promotes blood-vessel formation; mouse studies report it can push follicles into the growth phase, and human evidence comes only indirectly from PRP trials. No PDGF product is approved for hair restoration and there is no published human trial of PDGF-BB on its own.

learn TDM-105795

What is TDM-105795, and why is it being studied as a potential product for hair loss and hair growth support? TDM-105795 is an experimental drug aimed at treating androgenetic alopecia to promote hair growth.
