>>We all agree that rising levels of DHT `triggers' a proccess of miniaturization in some scalp follicles, the question is, is this a direct effect of DHT on follicle cells or an indirect effect of DHT. For example, could DHT create different conditions in the tissue around follicles that effects the anagen enlargement proccess resulting in enlargement of follicles in some areas, and shrinkage of follicles in other areas? An `opposite' effect of DHT on hair follicles is accepted, why not therefore an opposte effect of DHT on the tissues around these follicles?<<
>>Maybe about 50 years ago, that WOULD have seemed like reasonable speculation about the etiology of MPB, but now everything along those lines has been thoroughly discredited. <<
Apparently not Bryan!
This is an extract from the interview at Hairloss Talk with the leading transplant surgeon Dr Limmer.
" but there is new information in regard to whether or not our theories were correct about donnor dominance. We've always believed that the recipient area where you plant the hair, has very little or nothing to do with how the hair grows. There is some new information out of the oriental research group that indicates more of an influence by the recipient area than we'd first thought."
Science moves on Bryan! I am sure that you as i, would be interested in any emerging details of this research?
