May 2007 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Hair can regrow in adult mice's skin after injury, and this process can be boosted by increasing Wnt7a, a protein. This could potentially help treat baldness and change our understanding of hair growth.
May 2007 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Hair can regrow in adult mice's skin after injury, and this regrowth doesn't come from existing hair cells but from skin cells in the wound, with Wnt7a protein helping this process. This could help treat baldness and scarring.
