Don't be shy to read this...no one is looking. Whether you're bald or not, this research is educational and helpful.

Researchers have discovered the cure to baldness - a new hair transplantation method. How does it work? researchers created new hair follicles by using a human skin cell called dermal papilla cells. Thus, rather than shifting hair from one part of the body to another or chugging hair treatment pills, this method simply regenerates the structures underneath the skin's surface that sprout hair to make new hair follicles.

Unfortunately, this technique probably won't work effectively in patients "who already have a limited number of hair follicles, such as women with hair loss, or patients with burns," the researchers said.

The dermal papilla cells were obtain from seven people with pattern baldness. Pattern baldness in males is influenced by genetics ( possibly related to more than one gene, and not necessarily from the maternal side) and hormonal changes in adulthood. Male baldness has been linked to the male hormone Dihydrotestosterone, which causes old hairs on the scalp to be replaced by progressively shorter and thinner hairs in a predictable pattern: it begin at the temples and crown of the head.

These cells were cultured and grown in a three-dimensional space, unlike a lab Petri dish. Once they grew into spherical droplets, they were transplanted onto the backs of mice where human skin had been grafted. "In five of the seven samples, the transplanted dermal papilla cells induced new hair follicles to grow in the skin graft. A DNA test confirmed that these hair follicles were, indeed, a genetic match with the donors' follicles," the researchers noted.

This remarkable study is the first technique to discover a method of creating new hair follicles in the lab. However, it still needs improvement because the hair follicles did not sprout hair that grows all the way to the skin's surface.

In contrast, the new method requires very few existing hairs in order to work, and could make hair transplantation available to more patients, said study researcher Angela M. Christiano, a professor of dermatology at Columbia University Medical Center.
