"Shuttling genes into hair follicles can alter hair colour, scientists have shown for the first time. The experiments on mice also suggest genetic modification treatments for hair loss will be possible in future. Closer to reality is the prospect of restoring colour to greying hair. But it will be some years before the pioneering work that has given mice shocks of gaudy green hair reaches the salon. "They're punk mice, you could say," jokes Ronald Hoffman, head of the team which developed the mice with green hair at AntiCancer, a Californian biotech company based in San Diego." Soooooo rad!:) Genetic modification alters hair colour |
