<p>I have Androgenic Alopecia as well. I guess what I took away from this is ..... it lasted 5 or 6 weeks..... that seems like a very short period of time, would hope for a longer period before claiming 'success'. However, ANY research is good. It means we are not being ignored.</p>

<p>That's how I felt when I saw this. I wasn't sure how this research has anything to do with Alopecia as an auto immune disease, so I'm not sure why she mentions her own struggles with AA. Just to relate? It obviously wouldn't cure her if it came back again, she does have some bitchin' hair though. </p>

<p>Androgenic alopecia is not about something being wrong with your immunity system... It's about your genetically predisposed hair folicules being vulnerable to a certain kind of hormones. If you get a transplant of hair folicules from a donor who has healthy hair, these folicules are not going to be destroyed by your hormones. So it's genetic. Not your immunity system. But when it comes to alopecia areata, then yes i think it's your immunity system so i don't think that this discovery would…</p>

I don't think you're missing anything Donna. The science community likes wasting money telling us about their experiments where they found something that might be entirely useless and non effective in about 10 years time.

<p>I don't see how this would benefit people with alopecia. Unless I misunderstood my doctors, alopecia is caused by the immunity system attacking hair and preventing it from growing. Seem like a cure needs to be aimed at the immunity system. What is it I don't understand? </p>

I love to hear about news like this, but at the same time I hate it because it's giving a feeling of immediate hope, when the truth is, none of this will be available to any of us until decades from now. I'm still looking into the Abatacept clinical trials
