This could cause funding problems for the Mice Toupee industry...

The study could lead to the development of a medical treatment against thinning hair, Saga said, but she added that she had no immediate plans for further research to develop a human application."I found what might be the thing millions of men are looking for. But I have no plans to work on it."
That's nice, lady.

Have we cured cancer yet?Yes.
The question is, have the cancer drug companies allowed the findings into the public yet?

Is it folk lore or true that baldness can be linked to your mother’s side of the family?
If that’s true, my husband is screwed. His pap was bald as a cue ball by 35...
Can’t we speed this stuff up a little? :)

undetectable comb over
No such thing.

I think the key to the importance of this finding, even if it translates well to human physical development, is: “a gene that is linked to early hair loss”, with emphasis on “early” hair loss, as opposed to the more prevalent hair loss that few human males avoid entirely as they age.

I take back all the bad things I’ve said about the Japanese. However if they did come up with cure for baldness, it would take our FDA about 30 years before they would approve it. By that time it will be too late for me.
