She is focusing on nano and virus like particles to deliver specific molecules to targeted areas in hair follicle in vivo and specifically treating hair stem cells by targeted nano molecular therapies.

He is a very promising young researcher and he may become consultant to our Lab shortly. He has presented his paper at WCHR20103 tittled "Enhancing hair follicle neogenesis in bioengineered human skin substitute". His company has a collaboration with Dr. Cotsarelis. He is from Pennsylvania, USA

And they were very kind and open to share and support , as i mail them my findings with new miniclincal experiments on 3D spheroidal DP culture,growth factors etc.
Jahoda corrected me by asking me to use dermal sheath cells rather dermal papilla cells alone with my HM and doubling.
I invited washniek to India,we will meet again at Sanfrancisco,USA at ISHRS,2013 ,may be i will be ready with my presentation by then.
Dr Gerd should be consultant to my lab, by next month.
Found a yound innovative researcher from pennsylvania Dr Rajesh(who presented his paper titled..Enhancing hair follicle neogenesis in bioengineered human askin substitutes) who's company has a collabration with cotsarelis.
Hellouser,i conveyed to most of them ,till how long it will be only research..it is high time we reach somewhere near cure.
Some other TAKE AWAYS...
1)How to work on topical finasteride with special carriers to have consistent high local scalp concentrationand targetted delivery ,thus avoiding oral finasteride and it's side effects in the near future.
2)Follicle testing research moving towards in vitro lab with follicle kept alive for atleast 15days,thus allowing the researchers to see effects of vrious molecules on the follicle growth,as against just (alien) mouse studies..As ralf paus from uk said mouse originated from asia and humans from africa..
Also more research experiments now carried with human skin created in lab,grafted into SICD mouse and implantation of pluripotent mouse keratinocytes and human cultured dp cells ..with successfull follicle regen in 6 weeks.
3)Donor doubling ,now confirmed by independent study by LIN,HUANG of Shantou university ,china...confirming that a bisected follicle with outer root sheath can grow it's own dermal papilla back in vitro in lab (with specail culture medium) and mouse..These guys have developed a special instrument to cut the follicle in vivo with a scissor like structure as punch.
I was fortunate to see major part of congress being focussed on DP culture models ..3d spheroidal,culture mediums with supplements..layered models,hanging drop models,capsules,scaffolds etc. This would help our lab move forward with respect to trichogenic dp culture.
Will share many other take aways soon..

Topical finasteride looks good, 71% scalp DHT reduction with low systemic absorbtion, any ideas when this will be available Dr Nigam and where we can get our hands on it?
I think the dermal sheath cells is a good shout from Jahoda, do you think you could apply the 3D spheroidal DP culture with Dermal SHEATH cells?

Thanks Dr! I have the same question as UK_ regarding topical finas.

It depends on what they negotiate with the FDA. A single Phase III study mainly to show efficacy could be enough. If I remember correctly from the abstracts it were researchers in Asia who did the test, maybe that can be used in the negotiations with FDA.
Either way, this should be available within 2 years, maybe sooner.

Probably the more interesting question would be: is it easy to make this yourself ?

Dr Nigam, we are all so very appreciative of your efforts to educate us here on BTT. You have proven yourself to be a person of interest and I look forward to more of your experiences at the Conference ..Im very GLAD to hear that you will be at the San Fransisco Conference in October!!
Dr , I would like to have a private conversation with you regarding the October Conference at your earliest convenience. Thank you.
