This study found that the wavy coat trait in Nakano cataract mice is polygenic, involving major and minor genes, and resembles human curly scalp hair associated with the PRSS53 gene alteration.
This study observed that using transfected human cord blood cells enhanced skin wound healing in rats by promoting angiogenesis and earlier termination of proliferation compared to untransfected cells.

In this study, researchers found that the absence of P-selectin delays inflammatory cell recruitment and reepithelialization in fetal wounds, although scar formation still occurs in later gestation wounds.
The user experienced hairline improvement using microneedling once a month with a 12-pin set at 1.5-2.0mm and taking Tru Niagen, alongside a heavily modified diet. They attribute the slow hairline improvement to environmental factors, particularly diet, rather than solely genetic factors.
A user shared their positive experience with Roots by GA, a company that creates personalized hair loss treatments based on DNA analysis, which confirmed their inability to tolerate finasteride. The user is satisfied with their progress 30 days after a hair transplant and the customized formula they received.
CRISPR shows promise for treating hair loss by targeting specific genes. Current treatments include Minoxidil and finasteride, but CRISPR could offer a more precise solution, though it is still expensive and in early stages.
The conversation is about skepticism towards a product marketed as a "DHT BLOCKER" for hair loss, with users suggesting it is a scam and recommending proven treatments like finasteride and minoxidil. Other suggestions include lifestyle changes like a healthy diet, exercise, and stress reduction.
CRISPR Cas9 could potentially treat baldness by targeting specific genes in hair follicles without affecting other body functions. There is optimism about its future use, despite ethical concerns and the current reliance on treatments like minoxidil and finasteride.
