New stem cell therapy shows 'promising' results for treating hair loss in preclinical trials

Researchers at the San Carlos Clinical Hospital in Madrid may have targeted a expected approach for hair loss A contemporary inquiry analyzed the effect of injecting mice's skin with stem cells from human fat adipose-derived stem cells ASCs as a means of treating androgenetic alopecia AGA more commonly known as male- or female-pattern hair loss The gang detected that male mice achieved the best hair regrowth after three weeks when they received low-dose ASCs combined with an energy-boosting molecule called adenosine triphosphate ATP HAIRSTYLISTS AND THERAPEUTIC EXPERT CONFIRM TEMPORARY HAIR LOSS AFFECTING OZEMPIC USERSLow-dose and high-dose ASC treatments along with ATP led to no hair regrowth improvement in females but medium-dose ASC plus ATP led to greater regrowth The researchers concluded that hair regrowth was improved in all experimental groups where male mice received stem cell solutions supplemented with ATP The findings were published in the journal Stem Cell Research Therapy Lead research author Dr Eduardo L pez Bran dermatologist and professor at The Complutense University of Madrid shared his expectations for the inquiry in an interview with Fox News Digital THIS DAILY BEAUTY ROUTINE COULD BE RUINING YOUR HAIR EXPERTS WARN We expected good results but not such a high level of success he declared We re talking about a very high degree of hair regrowth in both male and female mice With appropriate doses the researchers achieved very high percentages of hair regrowth noting that of the male mice and up to of the female mice regrew hair These results demonstrate that advanced therapies may represent a new therapeutic approach for a great number of diseases for which no effective treatments are presently available Bran went on Achieving such promising results in the preclinical phase with a perfectly novel approach to androgenetic alopecia one that avoids chronic therapy and is also safe is a crucial scientific milestone The main limitation of the survey was the thinness of mouse skin Bran noted which posed a challenge in administering the therapy This required the expansion of protocols to minimize experimental variability and will be a key factor when studies in humans begin he mentioned These new findings should be interpreted with caution and scientific rigor Bran cautioned Although the results in mice represent notable progress it is also true that it is essential to wait for clinical benefits in humans to be validated CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR ROBUSTNESS NEWSLETTERThe researcher encouraged those with androgenetic alopecia to continue consulting with their dermatologists and to follow prescribed treatments as research develops It is major to remain hopeful Research advances are pointing toward doable solutions that in the future may offer long-lasting results without the need for continuous healing to maintain benefits Bran added Looking ahead to human clinical trials researchers are actively working on confirming safety for men and women between and years old with moderate androgenetic alopecia the researcher noted If everything progresses as expected the majority of optimistic timeline points to the healing becoming available in approximately five years he commented In a separate interview with Fox News Digital Dr Brendan Camp M D a New York-based dermatologist who was not involved in the scrutiny commented on the promising for this method While not commercially available this evaluation suggests that injection of stem cells supplemented with ATP into scalp skin could potentially encourage hair regrowth in individuals with androgenetic alopecia he reiterated For more Wellness articles visit www foxnews com physical condition This investigation is small and more research is needed on this method as a expected medicine option for androgenetic alopecia Until then Camp encourages people to focus on as of now available and well-studied treatments to address hair loss and to visit a board-certified dermatologist for evaluation
