» Conclusion:
» • We demonstrated that proto-hairs can be produced in vitro from cultured
» cells.
» • We proposed a concept of the immature ‘proto-hair’ as an option for
» clinical transplantation.

» someone know if this proto hair are near the market of transplants? this
» colud be very great... imagine a work of hasson or alvi with 50.000 hairs




hell, this is what Ive been saying for years.................grow the cells into hair OUTSIDE the scalp and re-implant as fully differentiated hair follicles. My idea years ago was to have hair removal done on the thighs........and implant cells for head hair in the thighs.................any hair that grew could be FUE'd to the scalp as fully differentiated hairs. What didn't grow didn't grow. So what-no loss there. If we had a skin model that could subsist for a year or so we could plant hair seeds (cells) in it and try to induce at least proto-hairs for scalp implantion later. THis is good news that this is at least being tried. I really do think yield would be much much much better this way. MPB scalp has thinner skin, excessive collagen, water layer loss, less fatty acids, and probably is less vascularization than healthy donor-area scalp. There is a cytokine presence to existing vellus hairs in the throes of MPB also abundant there. Its not the best environment for new hairs to develop----so develop them somewhere else. We know fully diffentiated hairs do well whem moved there.
