All it means is that the oral form of jakinibs, which Christiano said is less effective for growing hair, failed to work on not one but *two vexingly difficult to solve hairloss disorders. A topical form of jakinibs worked wonders for both normal mice and mice engineered to have human-like Androgenetic Alopecia. Christiano said, though, that mice skin is paper thin compared to human scalp with oil glands, a layer of fat et cetera, and that it would take some expertise to develop a topical formula to penetrate scalp in carrying the drug to the proper depth of follicles and remain there for longer than a few minutes at a time.This will do nothing for Androgenetic Alopecia. A pic was shown of a universalis guy who regrew hair in a nw4 pattern. Essentially he had both forms of hair loss and jaks.only worked for.universalis. This is a bust for Androgenetic Alopecia simple as.
Who thinks / believes JAK will work for Androgenetic Alopecia ? Raise your hand![]()
We'll have to wait for the results. No shortcuts in science. 50-50 chance.
Well, I mean based on research paper and our understanding regarding this JAK, theoretically, will it work for Androgenetic Alopecia ?
Exactly. In the Gilhar study, they had two responders listed, but all 10 had an increase in hair. Nothing in their limitations states the FACT that everyones scalp is different. Some more porous, some produce more sebum and thus expel and topical thats applied.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9449161

id rather see that WAY osteoporsis drug that targets a protein in the WNT pathway get some testing and results than this.
JAK inhibitors stimulate hair follicles out of the resting phase into the growing phase. They also show the ability to elongate the growing phase.
JAK inhibitors activate the Wnt and Shh signaling pathway.
JAK inhibitors cause the activation of hair follicle progentior (stem) cells.
Tofacitinib (a JAK inhibitor) promotes inductivity of dermal papilla cells.
Tofacitinib promotes hair growth by positively affecting genes within pathways that are crucial to hair growth. For example: TGFB pathway genes, BMP pathway genes, LEF1, and NOTCH pathway genes.

Our Androgenetic Alopecia-201 topical trial is a planned Phase II open-label clinical trial of ATI-502 for the topical treatment of androgenetic alopecia, that's A-G-A, also known as male/female pattern hair loss. And this trial is anticipated to begin in the first half of this year.
This trial will evaluate the effect of ATI-502 on the regrowth of hair in up to 24 patients with Androgenetic Alopecia. And data are expected in the first half of 2019.
