On mice but not humans (serious)

[waynakyo]

Please please spare us useless comments that deviate the thread from its objective.
This is for those who read and have immersed themselves in the literature. I just want to know how many drugs have WORKED in mice, but have NOT WORKED (period) in humans.

Can you list the studies that worked in mice but not in humans ?

I know of drugs that worked in mice, but I am not sure whether they worked in human or not (such as Astressin-B, Valporic Acid, ...).

The bottom line is to know whether to care at all about results in mice and whether there is evidence that makes mice a good model of male pattern baldness in humans.

Thanks

i remember reading about 99% of mouse studies fail to make it to humans.
i tend to disregard any mouse studies for that reason, it's just of no value to any non-researcher.

Synchronicity of hair on mice is the difference, also that pilosebaceous unit in humans go trought all dermis, only in simians and pigs

Heard of bald mices who grow hair but as you see it say nothing really

gorrilla and humans are so close....., but mice don't

You could fart next to a mouse and it would grow hair on it.

ok I got a lot of scientific answers as expected...
so you guys telling me that researchers are so dumb ..
it seems to me too that mice can regrow more easily but there must be some more scientific knowledge on this
