research Application of multi-omics techniques to androgenetic alopecia: Current status and perspectives
Multi-omics techniques help understand the molecular causes of androgenetic alopecia.
research A Novel Mouse Type I Intermediate Filament Gene, Keratin 17n (K17n), Exhibits Preferred Expression in Nail Tissue
A new mouse gene, Keratin 17n, is mainly found in nail tissue and may explain why mice without Keratin 17 don't have nail issues.
research Structural Hierarchy of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair growth and structure.
research Shushing down the epigenetic landscape towards stem cell differentiation
The document concludes that pig iPSCs show promise for transplant therapies and the field is advancing in controlling cell behavior for biology and medicine.
research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.

Microneedling for hair restoration involves daily use of a 0.3 mm device and weekly use of a 0.5 mm device. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil can enhance hair growth.
community We already know how to permanently fix hair loss. The science is done. The only thing missing is the funding to run one experiment.
A permanent hair loss solution could involve reprogramming hair follicles to resist DHT using mRNA and siRNA. However, high costs, safety concerns, and the pharmaceutical industry's preference for ongoing treatments over one-time cures are major obstacles, with finasteride and minoxidil remaining standard treatments.
community How do we only have two treatments to combat hair loss at this point in time?
The post discusses frustration over the limited and not always effective treatments for hair loss, mainly Minoxidil and Finasteride. The conversation includes mentions of potential new treatments like GT20029, HMI-115, CosmeRNA, KX-826, and microneedling, but also highlights the challenges of funding and prioritizing research in this area.
community How is there zero improvement with finding the cure?
Hair loss treatments have not advanced since 2018, with finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841 still being the main options. A permanent cure is unlikely due to the profitability of ongoing treatments.
community New article on PP405..........
Scientists at UCLA have developed a promising treatment for male pattern baldness using a molecule called PP405, which can potentially stimulate dormant hair follicles. Initial trials showed significant results within a week, but larger clinical trials are needed to confirm its efficacy and safety.
