Did you mean quiescent stem cells?

GlossaryStem Cell Quiescence

state where stem cells remain inactive to preserve function

Stem cell quiescence, also known as stem cell dormancy, refers to a state in which stem cells remain inactive or non-dividing. This state helps protect the stem cells from exhaustion and damage, ensuring they can be activated when needed for tissue repair or regeneration. Quiescent stem cells are crucial for maintaining long-term tissue health and preventing premature aging or diseases like cancer.

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.

Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.

community Confused why people are calling PP405 a cure...it never claimed to be able to undo miniaturization or revert vellus back to terminal hairs. It seems to be more of a growth stimulant like minoxidil.

in Research/Science 54 upvotes 1 month ago

PP405 is not a cure for hair loss but may reactivate dormant hair follicles, similar to minoxidil. It is unlikely to help with miniaturized or vellus hairs and is still in trial phases, with availability expected around 2030.

in Research/Science 21 upvotes 2 months ago

Combining therapies like scyllo-inositol, alpha-ketoglutarate, and autophagy-inducing supplements may enhance hair growth and prevent hair loss. Reporting individual results can accelerate progress in hair loss treatments.

community PP405: The Ultimate Hair Loss Drug for Complete Hair Growth

in Research/Science 206 upvotes 2 months ago

PP405 is a new hair loss treatment in phase 2 trials that may promote hair growth by increasing lactate production and activating hair follicle stem cells. It could potentially replace hormone-disrupting treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.
