Laminin-511 (molecule) acts an operator, transferring messages, or proteins between the inner and outer layers of skin exchange ultimate drives hair information. The molecule will triggers hair follicle growth in mice for treatment to regrow hair in humans who experience hair loss.

Dr Peter Marinkovich, the study senior author and an associate professor at Stanford University School of Medicine said “Loss of hair is not going to kill anybody. At the same time, for some people, hair loss can be a really traumatic thing, especially for women”.

The treatment could help patients who suffer alopecia, a thyroid disorder that can cause hair loss to speed up hair growth for chemotherapy patients. Researchers believes that the molecule have the ability to regenerate other developing tissues like limbs or even organs; tests to believe and how the process works.

In the study of Laminin-511, mice injected with purified molecule grew back hair in two weeks at half the thickness of a normal rodent. Some supplements for healthy hair are B-vitamins, Kelp, Silica & Zinc. In a female, a molecule that prompts hair follicle development in uteri might one day be used to treat hair loss or combat excess hair growth. The epidermis pumps out laminin-511, which crosses to the dermis and stimulates dermal cells to grow tiny, antennae-like projections that pick up epidermal signals.
