Glossary Hair Follicle Reconstitution

process of regenerating new hair follicles using stem cells

Hair Follicle Reconstitution refers to the process of regenerating or creating new hair follicles, typically through the use of stem cells or other cellular techniques. This method aims to restore hair growth in areas affected by conditions like alopecia or hair loss, by re-establishing the complex structure and function of hair follicles.

community Why did this recent research paper from professor Tsuji lab in Japan largely go unnoticed by this sub? Isn't this discovery huge? (hair cloning)

35 upvotes 4 months ago

A recent discovery in hair cloning identified a previously unknown cell type essential for hair follicle growth, which could potentially make lab-grown hair viable if translated to humans. However, skepticism remains due to past delays and the challenges of replicating results in humans and making the process affordable.

community Has anyone ordered JXL-069 (grey market PP405)?

53 upvotes 1 year ago

People are discussing JXL-069 (PP405) for hair loss, with some experimenting with a 0.05% topical gel. Concerns about safety and efficacy persist due to limited testing and lack of official approval.

community Anyone here have a lot of knowledge on hair follicle stem cells and progenitor cells for PP405?

in Chat 4 upvotes 8 months ago

Hair follicle stem cells remain in bald individuals, but progenitor cells do not, raising questions about hair regrowth claims by Pelage. PP405 is discussed as a potential treatment, with skepticism about its effectiveness compared to existing treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.

community "Hair Follicle Stem Cells are quiescent 99% of the time and permanently reside in the hair follicle"

in Research/Science 1391 upvotes 1 year ago

Hair follicles are mostly dormant but can be reactivated with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and microneedling. A new drug, PP405, shows promise for hair regrowth but may not be available until 2027-2028.
