From what i can tell, follica is dead, or dead quiet newish website. Replicel has been bought buy big cosmetics, I'd argue this is bad news since a large company is more likely to pull the plug if they don't see a potential return (Like what happened to adreans), curing male pattern baldness is a risky...

sometimes i really think someone could post any claim on earth on the internet, if spoken with sufficient authority it will be believed by those gullible enough. try bee sting therapy with cow manure, it might help trigger an immune response, thereby preventing autoimmune response. :woot:

I was thinking about this, the cost of hinging up such a fund would outweigh the potential fund. There would be inevitable admin costs and drafting up and measuring the standards to which rewarded companies must follow would be substantialbesides, there would also have to be funding for...

i had this idea but i would only really have the money to part with pennies rather than pounds lack of funding seems to halt the trials and contrary to popular belif on these forums, male pattern baldness cures (and biotech in general) are pretty crappy investments, they take many years for a return and the time...

if ARI get funding, ARI (or whatever the new name becomes) follica are promising too, they will pretty much win in the same order as the enter the 'race', it's not a matter of finishing in first place, it's a matter of finishing at all.

I a couple of years back said there was a 41% chance there is a cure in 3 years from now but I question that forecast now. I would try and re-evaluate but I would need a decent list of trialed technologies with phases (and i have no idea how to treat the ambiguity of the term"Phase I/II")...

This bothers me, not only the dermaroller group have >10% more hair at the baseline, they even have a greater average haircount at baseline than the minoxidil group did post treatment people at early stages of male pattern baldness may respond to treatment better than those who get treatment later with no...

this is a summery of why we get these stories it's either this, or marketing for investment

this study does nothing to convince me that it wasn't a placebo effect strictly speaking the minoxidil group should of been lead to belive they were getting a dermaroller too

"it inhibits DHT without side effects" that's called a snake oil no genuine medicine in history claims to have no side effects all medicines have side effects. has either histogen or replicel made released any news this year? i am sure histogen was due to end 1 of it's phases by now and it...

the article seems to hint towards "vitamin D deficiency can cause hairloss" more than "male pattern baldness is caused by a vitamin D deficiency"

i remember reading about 99% of mouse studies fail to make it to humans. i tend to disregard any mouse studies for that reason, it's just of no value to any non-researcher.

if that's the case then i am really not holding my breath if it's a drug that has already been through trials for something else we would of 'accidentally' discovered it works for male pattern baldness already. Like we did with minoxidil.

both, 2 year timescale is first hurdle of bullshǐt, second is the notion that PGD2 inhibitors necessarily prevent baldness (even if PGD2 is the cause we have no where near sufficient evidence that the inhibitors will make a difference) and finally the daily mail is barely a decent source for...

maybe you can believe this, but you're then obliged to believe it'll give you cancer alongside being tall, being short, going outside, being a recluse, mobile phones and being bald
