Cure for male pattern baldness could be near

This is important because stem cells (cells that are able to change into any type of cell) are important in the growth and repair of our bodies.

The difference between bald and not bald scalps was that the stem cells in bald men were failing to move to the next level, progenitor cells, and finally to hair follicles. Researchers will now search for the trigger that tells the stem cells to change. The hope is that this could lead to a treatment for male pattern baldness.
