research Long-Term Extensive Ectopic Hair Growth on the Spinal Cord of Mice from Transplanted Whisker Follicles

4 citations , August 2015 in “PloS one”

This study found that whisker follicle stem cells transplanted to injured spinal cords in mice contributed to healing and unexpectedly grew hair at the injury site.

research Whisker follicles transplanted to the spine of nude mice for spinal cord repair generate extensive ectopic hair growth

September 2016 in “Journal of dermatological science”

In this study, transplanted whisker follicles from ND-GFP mice aided spinal cord repair in injured mice, and surprisingly, also grew long hair shafts at the site of transplantation.

research Deletion of an Enhancer in FGF5 is Associated With Ectopic Expression in Goat Hair Follicles and the Cashmere Growth Phenotype

1 citations , October 2020 in “Research Square (Research Square)”

This study identified a 505-bp indel variant in the FGF5 gene associated with cashmere growth in goats, which may serve as a molecular marker in cashmere goat breeding programs.

research Deletion of an enhancer in FGF5 is associated with ectopic expression in goat hair follicles and the cashmere growth phenotype

December 2020 in “Research Square (Research Square)”

This study identifies a strong association between a 505-bp indel mutation in the FGF5 gene and cashmere growth in goats, suggesting potential use as a genetic marker in breeding programs.

research Activation of β-catenin signaling programs embryonic epidermis to hair follicle fate

193 citations , May 2008 in “Development”

This study found that activating β-catenin signaling in embryonic epidermis promoted hair follicle characteristics at the expense of normal epidermal differentiation, leading to early pigmentation and innervation.

community Amplifica: Hope or Cope? A Review of Their Pipeline

9 upvotes 1 month ago

Amplifica's AMP-303 showed a modest increase in hair growth, but results were inconsistent and potentially misleading. Hyaluronic acid and osteopontin are being explored for hair growth, with varying effects on different hair types and conditions.

community We already know how to permanently fix hair loss. The science is done. The only thing missing is the funding to run one experiment.

in Technology 613 upvotes 4 months ago

A permanent hair loss solution could involve reprogramming hair follicles to resist DHT using mRNA and siRNA. However, high costs, safety concerns, and the pharmaceutical industry's preference for ongoing treatments over one-time cures are major obstacles, with finasteride and minoxidil remaining standard treatments.

community Prolactin the Cause of Hair Loss? ABS-201 the Cure?

29 upvotes 2 months ago

Prolactin may contribute to hair loss, but targeting its receptor won't cure androgenetic alopecia. ABS-201 could be a useful alternative or adjuvant therapy, similar to JAK inhibitors, but not more effective than HMI-115.

community I swear to god this hair never existed there ???

in Is this regrowth? 129 upvotes 1 year ago

Unusual hair growth can occur in unexpected areas, possibly due to topical treatments like Minoxidil. Such hair may appear suddenly and is often unrelated to typical hairline patterns.

learn Osteopontin

signaling protein that, when suppressed, may grow hair by reducing inflammation and stem cell loss

learn Estradiol

an estrogen promoting hair regrowth more commonly used in women

learn KY19382

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

learn Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation moves DHT-resistant follicles from a donor area (back and sides of the scalp) into thinning or bald areas. The transplanted hair is generally permanent, though surrounding native hair can keep thinning.

learn Bimatoprost

a synthetic prostamide used to treat eyelashes also shows promise for stimulating hair growth on scalp
