The Wnt/β-cateninpathway is important for tissue development and has potential in regenerative medicine, but requires more research for therapeutic use.
JW0061 shows superior hair growth results compared to existing treatments, with significant increases in hair follicles. The Wnt/β-cateninpathway is crucial for hair growth, and JW0061 activates this pathway effectively.
The conversation discusses using topical Calcipotriol and Valproic Acid for hair loss, focusing on their mechanisms involving the VDR receptor and Wnt/beta-cateninpathway. Specific treatments mentioned are Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841.
A user suggests that deeper microneedling with Verteporfin injections might help regrow hair in areas with scar tissue, alongside a DHT blocker. Another user explains that hair loss might be due to reduced Wnt/β-Catenin signaling and suggests that treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and microneedling could potentially reverse it.
The mechanism of Androgenic Alopecia and practical applications of treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, dermarolling, scalp massages, anti-fungals, progesterone, estrogen, PPAR-γ activators, reducing oxidative stress, and scalp exercises. It explains why DHT is important in AA and how other factors might be involved such as hypoxia, increased DKK-1 expression, morphological changes to the scalp, skull growth during childhood/puberty, and blood flow.
Dr. Kang-Yell Choi's company, CK Regeon, is developing a drug called KY19382 for hair regeneration, which involves creating fine wounds to activate stem cells. The drug is in the formulation development stage, targeting markets like the US and Korea.
