obviously there are many many other ezymes and protiens in the pathway that will be affected through negative feedback mechanisms.
Now the thing I want to know... is WAS DR Cots study surrounding stem cells in bald scalps at the latter "FULL FIBROSIS" stage? Or was it at mild fibrosis (still have tiny vellus hairs)??
Because as we all know:
Earlier, people used to think that the hair follicles died premature deaths and that caused baldness, but this and other studies proved otherwise. These new discoveries and the studies that put aside inaccurate beliefs about the cause of baldness carry the potential for a future that’s full of thick, healthy hair.
In this milestone study, researchers used 15-dPGJ2, the PGD2 derivative to treat normal hair and found that the treated hair had stunted growth and ultimately died off.

as I said before: one anagen phase lasts 2-3 years. OF COURSE if that hair does not fall out prematurely, it will stay! The question is: what makes you think after anagen phase ends, it will regenerate again?

looool - nw7 will be fully reversible in a few years with ease.
Although i still think its reversible now.

THIS is what i wanted to know too!
as far as i can remember the scalp biopsies were from men who were nw7?
possibly indicating full fibrosis.
But time/age rather than norwood scale is more a good indication of how much scar/fibrotic tissue the scalp is surrounded by.

Most HM companies will fail in thier ventures, i.e wont yeaild "super" results via injections to be viable as a hair loss treatment.
If something much better is not found in the near future to reverse baldness eg histogen etc i predict these HM companies turning into hair transplant companies - multiplying hairs artificially in a "petri dish" and then transplanting them into patients scalps.
their cures are not "easy".
