Acell (Hair Multiplication & Research) |
Last line says Acell is already approved for other uses by FDA
"Sgt Shilo Harris admits his story sounds like science fiction.
Every three days, Brooke Army Center doctors put some "Pixie Dust" where Shilo's left index finger used to be.
"The first couple of times they did it I said, 'That's it?' They said, "That's it.' I said, 'Whoo, no needles!" Sgt. Harris said.
Pixie Dust to regenerate a limb is uncharted territory. Shilo Harris is the first.
"Using Pixie Dust, we're gonna use this product and see what happens," Dr. Steven Wolf said.
"It's real easy, it's almost too simple," Harris said.
Army video shows Dr. Wolf putting Pixie dust on the Shilo's finger for the first time. That was one month ago.
"After about a week, this little knot started coming up right here."
Everybody is curious about his Pixie Dust finger.
"It's growing, yeah," Harris said.
How long did they say it'll take?
They don't know the answer to most questions, not even how it will look.
"I think he's probably going to end up with more length and maybe half a finger," Dr. Wolf said.
"Even if it would grow out half, it would make a big difference because I'm so limited with these two fingers," Harris said.
What is Pixie Dust? Think of it as cell food.
"What it does is attracts stem cells, circulating cells all of us have running around our bodies," Dr. Wolf said.
The cells stop to munch on the protein, fat and carb molecules in the Pixie Dust, then they see the missing finger...and say:
"I'm right here by a bone, therefore I need to be bone," Dr. Wolf said.
The bag of Pixie Dust, actually called cellular matrix, is a bargain. It costs about $100, but for injured soldiers and, someday the rest of us:
"It has endless possibilities," Harris said. "How would you like to go the doctor, man, you have a bad heart. The doctor says, 'Hey, you do, but well I'll grow you another one, no big deal."
Pixie dust, which comes from pig bladders, is already FDA approved for other uses."

amilcar, maybe i overdid it. but my message is still, acell is fake. do you have other information than this?
one of these sources is the acell - website itself. this one doesnt count. the second source is a source about an investor. there is nothing said about acell in it.
the third source is from the bbc. it doesnt say much either.
anyway, acell was found, after its website, by 2001. thats just 7 years from now in the past. clinical trials need 10 years normally. so even if its not a scam, i think they will maybe start trials in july but not sell it.
to sum it up, we dont have many sources about acell. in fact nearly none. its very questionable if this thing is real. i think our best bet is ICX, still.

a powder with which you can regrow organs? well, science is developing, but not in that short time. this is impossible what acell does.
hell, if that was true...imagine!
if acell is true, i will cut of my finger and let it regrow with acell.

I don't think that anybody here really knows. It doesn't seem to be a scam, it probably enhances healing of wounds and they state it also can regenerate lost tissue. But it might happen that it is a "scam" for the hair loss suffereres. That remains to see since probably someone will test in on a HT or by wounding once it comes available. We can just wait and see, either it works or it don't

I agree with Travis. I can't imagine a strip scar (or multiple strip scars) creating enough scar tissue on his head to block and/or minimize signaling from health skin cells as the body regenerates itself.
I actually had a few hair transplant procedures performed by Bosley in the early 90's that were undetectable for over a decade. However, as I continued to lose hair, they became visible and now mild scarring on my forehead can be seen, as well as the strip scars on the back of my head when I cut my hair very short. I can't speak to your case specifically Travis, but it stands to reason that if hair transplantation was that damaging to the general skin cell population around the scalp human, then these procedures would show negative results pretty immediately in folks who are NM 3.5, 4, etc.
In my opinion, cutting out the strip scars from the donor area, getting a medium depth dermabrasion on the recipient area, and applying the Acell powder on the open wounds should significantly heal your scalp.

ASC-9 Cream does not permanently remove receptors. Or does it? |
Off the top of my head, I think the study in question was mentioning both rat and human info.
I didn't mean to imply that the methods of action between circumin and licorice were VERY similiar, just that there might be enough spillover to warrant concern. They're more similiar than circumin and minox, or circumin and Fin/Dut, for example.
I just don't know about a ton of airtight studies demonstrating that circumin definitely can't hurt hair. It makes a lot of chemical sense that circumin would help hair, and I know some guys have talked about having good experiences with it. But then again there are guys who tell you that Finasteride destroyed their hairline too.
I suspect we'll rapidly learn a lot more about the hair possibilities once ASC-J9 hits the shelves for acne.

Spiro and flutamide bind to the androgen receptor but dont tell it to do anything and when they are bound DHT cant bind to that receptor. As competitive antagonists they also fall off again or can be outgunned by a lot of DHT molecules.
ASC-J9 amongst other things appears to help break the androgen recptor down. So you have less androgen receptors.
"Here we report that adding 5-hydroxy-1,7-bis(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1,4,6-heptatrien-3-one (ASC-J9) disrupts the interaction between AR and its coregulators, and also increases cell survival by decreasing AR-polyQ nuclear aggregation and increasing AR-polyQ degradation in cultured cells."
Presumably it also has topical vs systemic effects otherwise it would be about as useful to stopping hairloss as cutting your testicles off. ie an effective treatment but with side effects.

» If dermabrasion can't even pose enough of a wound to uncork some follicle
» healing possibilities with Acell, then I don't know how in the hell we
» think Folica has been producing ALL-NEW follicles with wounds no deeper
» than that already.
But Follica is using molecular cues to guide the stem cells to become hair follicles instead of new skin cells. Acell is just attracting stem cells and then they will use the cues available to them from their surroundings in deciding what they are going to become. This is why I think Follica is MUCH more likely to be succesful than Acell - its an intelligent directed approach that is actually interested in understanding what makes a cell decide to become a hair follicle and not another skin cell. Its not just shooting up on stem cells and hoping for the best. I think from the early days of cloning and stem cell therapy have shown that their are few if any shortcuts when it comes to this type of technology - it helps a great deal if you understand all the nitty gritty boring details about why something works the way it does instead of shooting stem cells into the brain of a guy with Parkinson's and hoping they produce dopamine.
Yes its a slowish process and everyone wants a cure now but real progress is being made.
At any rate the balding scalp seems to be full of cues that tell hair follicle stem cells to take it easy and would encourage the growth of skin cells rather than hair. I think you would have to go pretty deep in terms of removing tissue to have a good hope of success here. Hair follicles are pretty deep in the skin.

Acell |
Acell pixie dust is a miracle drug. Try googling it.
And no currently you cannot regrow all your hair back. There has not been a single guy who would have accomplished something like that. Current treatments are good at keeping your existing hair or slowing down the hair loss, they are generarly poor and unsatisfying when it comes to regrowth.
Acell may regrow hair but noone knows yet if it will really.

These two (I'm assuming you mean Circumin & Licorice) do bind to the receptor as well dont they? So what is so new about this ASC-9 thing other then they used different marketing term to fool half of the planet to believe that this is the cure? I don't get it. I tried to google more information about receptor degradation but did not find anything that would explain it enough.
Umm . . . Does "a couple dozen times any natural potency" not seem like an improvement in the situation to you?
Regular natural Circumin also stains your skin orange.

ASC-9 Cream does not permanently remove receptors. Or does it? |
With ASC-J9 they basically took the relevant part of curcumin and ramped up its potency a couple dozen times over.
(Although I'm not trying to say it qualifies as any sort of "natural" substance. ASC-J9 is made from natural curcumin like gasoline is made from natural ancient plants.)
The ARs are constantly being replaced every couple of days. ASC-J9 would need to be indefinitely reapplied in that sense. I don't know if there's any long-term inhibition without the drug's constant reapplication.
I think the big thing to realize with ASC-J9 is that there is probably no way for the body to compensate for it. If you deprive the ARs of androgens with something like Keto or Fin/Dut or RU58841, then the body's normal response is to raise the number of ARs being generated to try to compensate. The ARs are the body's natural check & balance in the system.
But now with ASC-J9 we're talking about artificially reducing the ARs themselves. So all our existing anti-androgens would probably see a functional increase in strength with this stuff thrown into the mix. There would be fewer ARs in total, but each one would be getting at least as much stimulation as before. So there shouldn't be any signals to the body that something is amiss, as opposed to what happens with the androgen-reducing methods we have now.
But there's still potential trouble before assuming ASC-J9 is a go.
Benji recently dug up a study showing that licorice was actually KILLING hairs on rats. And chemically speaking, the methods of action between the licorice and circumin are similar.
I think the question is whether this effect is showing up with topical curcumin. If it's not, then I think ASC-J9 is reasonably likely to be a safe bet not to damage hairs like licorice was doing.

true...I read somewhere, it's a more potent form of curcumin.

A new finger nail and it grows twice as fast? Isn't there some relation between hair and finger nails? Like maybe that the two are composed of the same substance? Maybe this could work....

Did the rep mentioned why he thought regeneration might be a problem? What I'm thinking is that you'd definitely need a medium peel to damage enough of the scalp/follicle for ACELL to be effective i.e. regenerate hair.
And if the above method actually restores original hair (instead of creating new) then that shouldn't be bad at all. All we need to do is get the procedure every 5 years or so, and by that time we should have ASCJ-9 foam or TRC to update the genetic code of hair.

Well, it's not black magic! 
Basically, the way it works is by triggering the regeneration system of the body. So theoratically, regrowing a nose is possible but you'd definitely need some sort of scaffolding to build cartildge, and then the skin would grow over it. Because Cells can't just form a bridge in the air!
Therefore, regrowing skin is a lot easier than limbs. I'm very optimmistic about ACELL - 2 weeks to go!
