Stemson is going to use minipigs in the next stage of their hair cloning research

dNovo can never work in scarring alopecia. There will always be a need for something like Stemson.

Dude, dNovo was founded in 2018! Why do you think they are behind Stemson in the stage of their research, funding, company size etc? Because they are just lazy? It’s obvious they are facing their own problems, don’t be naive to fall for press releases marketing again

You fail to understand this is not about funding or start date at this stage. Other user tried to explain you but your in denial.

Highly doubt thats their target market though. Im seeing through Androgenetic Alopecia glasses obviously

You guys are enchanted by their fluffy press release. If their approach didn’t have its own problems they wouldn’t be moving so slowly in basically every main company metric.

Truth be told in the biotech sector, true novel solutions take not years but decade(s) to reach commercial release, so it’s not Stemson’s fault per se that they are not making progress as fast as we want. I just hope they don’t run out of money and keep pushing it as long as it takes to cross the finish line.

Well, at least we have a pretty decent mouse pic with human hair, seven months later, lol.

Well it also can't work in Androgenetic Alopecia if perifollicular fibrosis is so bad there isn't a functional follicle anymore. Then it's the same thing.

By the way does finasteride prevent perifollicular fibrosis from occurring if you start taking it early enough?

Also are there any drugs on the horizon to reverse fibrosis? The reprogramming approach was able to regenerate a crushed optic nerve in mice, so is it possible it can regenerate a hair follicle too?

The only problem with the dNovo idea is that the production of hair in the human body is not as simple a process as it may seem. Therefore, in order to offer customers a proven solution, dNovo must improve its technology in such a way that the artificially programmed stem cells are able to transform into the entire infrastructure needed for uniform hair production over the entire area subjected to transplantation. So far, no lab has succeeded in this trick.

Doesn't do any good if the hair follicle is already gone.

The problem is dNovo is only reprogramming mesenchymal cells afaik. They can't generate a new hair follicle on their own. They also need epithelial cells. It's the interaction between the two that grows a hair shaft.

my opinion is worth nothing, I'm just a regular internet dude
but if someone has been following the topic of hair cloning for years, in my opinion everything indicates that Stemson has problems, human trials were supposed to be in 2021, it's 2022 and Hamilton talks about several years of trying on pigs, imo he only makes a good face for a bad game , of course I would like them to succeed, but on the other hand their solution will cost a fortune, imo it is the same price as Tsuji, I hope that dnovo will do it cheaper and faster than Stemson, they do not use ipsc cells .. ...
i dont think you are just a regular internet dude, I think you are a massive moron that pollutes this thread to death and has no genuine opinion, someone who follows reactionary news like a sheep and changes his opinion like his diapers. today you say stemson will succeed but only in 10 years, tomorrows you will proclaim that stemson has failed(lmao) and then it'll be something else. someone who acts as I they are a prime customer who personally deserves weekly updates from a privately held biotech company because his incel *** is going bald. someone who knows nothing about early stage biontech companies but thinks he is an expert on it, someone who just generally loves too radiate baseless unfounded negativity and loves to engage in endless nonsense speculations without any data at hand. and someone who single handedly is ruining this thread

none of us have a clue what stemson is doing and whether it will be successful, but you will probably admit that it is not going according to plan, because human trials were supposed to start in 2021, you are right i don't know anything about hair cloning, but you or anyone else on this forum knows as much as I do, which means nothing, your knowledge is based on what you read on the internet

some of this forum live their dreams - stemson in 5 years for 50k $: D nobody forbids it, remember the plane flying to dr Tsuji?

On the whole, there is too little investment in hair cloning. Couple of million here and there, but that's it. If Bezos would have wanted a full mane, we would go much, much faster.

Bezos is interested in becoming young again and has invested in that field. Bet we will see tangible results there before we see them in hair multiplication.

I'd rather be young again then I can wait for my hair 50 years: D longer
