Basonuclin 2 is vital for the development of facial bones, hairfollicles, and male germ cells in adult mice, and its absence can lead to dwarfism and abnormal follicles.
The conversation discusses an interview with Dr. Tsuji about hairfolliclestemcellmultiplication and the financial challenges of starting human clinical trials. It also mentions the need for funding to secure a patent for a protein that promotes hair growth.
The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
A breakthrough in hairfollicle cultivation using induced pluripotent stemcells (iPSCs) has been achieved, producing large hairfollicles suitable for transplantation. Clinical trials for this hairmultiplication technology are planned in partnership with Yinguan Biotechnology.
Epibiotech will offer off-the-shelf allogeneic hairmultiplication treatment in South Korea, using dermal papilla cells from donors to grow hair in balding areas. This method is cheaper and less invasive than traditional hair transplants.
Hair loss treatments, including minoxidil, dermarolling, finasteride, dutasteride, hair transplants, hair systems, and shaving the head. The conversation covers various opinions on these treatments and mentions possible side effects as well as alternatives like wigs, vitamins, and lifestyle changes. The post expresses disappointment that there has been no major breakthrough in the field of hair loss treatments despite decades of research.
