research Cells within the bulge region of mouse hair follicle transiently proliferate during early anagen: heterogeneity and functional differences of various hair cycles
Mouse hair follicle cells briefly grow during the early hair growth phase, showing that these cells are important for starting the hair cycle.
research A role of melatonin in neuroectodermal‐mesodermal interactions: the hair follicle synthesizes melatonin and expresses functional melatonin receptors
Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
research Extracellular vesicles derived from MSCs activates dermal papilla cell in vitro and promotes hair follicle conversion from telogen to anagen in mice
Tiny particles from stem cells help activate hair growth cells and encourage hair growth in mice without being toxic.
research Genetic basis of skin appendage development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
research Human epithelial hair follicle stem cells and their progeny: Current state of knowledge, the widening gap in translational research and future challenges
We need more research to better understand human hair follicle stem cells for improved treatments for hair loss and skin cancer.
research Nutrition and Hair
Eating the right nutrients can improve hair health, but taking extra supplements usually doesn't help unless you have a deficiency.
research Management of primary cicatricial alopecias: options for treatment
There are many treatments for permanent hair loss disorders, but their effectiveness varies and there's no clear best option.

The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
No treatment fully prevents hair loss from chemotherapy yet.
research Male Pattern Alopecia A Histopathologic and Histochemical Study
Male pattern baldness involves smaller hair follicles, larger oil glands, and other tissue changes, but not major blood supply issues.
research Human Epidermal Neural Crest Stem Cells (hEPI-NCSC)—Characterization and Directed Differentiation into Osteocytes and Melanocytes
Human epidermal neural crest stem cells can become bone and skin pigment cells, making them useful for therapies.
research Biology and Genetics of Hair
The document concludes that understanding the genes and pathways involved in hair growth is crucial for developing treatments for hair diseases.
research Chapter 6 Fetal Skin Wound Healing
Fetal skin heals without scarring due to unique cells and processes not present in adult skin healing.
research Minoxidil activates β-catenin pathway in human dermal papilla cells: A possible explanation for its anagen prolongation effect
Minoxidil helps hair growth by activating the β-catenin pathway.
research Inhibition of β-catenin signalling in dermal fibroblasts enhances hair follicle regeneration during wound healing
Blocking β-catenin in skin cells improves hair growth during wound healing.
research Simple and rapid method to isolate and culture follicular papillae from human scalp hair follicles
Researchers developed a quick and easy way to get and grow cells from the base of human hair follicles.
research Adenovirus-Mediated Wnt10b Overexpression Induces Hair Follicle Regeneration
Wnt10b overexpression can regenerate hair follicles, possibly helping treat hair loss and alopecia.
research Regulated Proenkephalin Expression in Human Skin and Cultured Skin Cells
Human skin cells produce proenkephalin, which changes with environmental factors and skin diseases.
research Clonal multipotency and effect of long-term in vitro expansion on differentiation potential of human hair follicle derived mesenchymal stem cells
Human hair follicle stem cells can turn into multiple cell types but lose some of this ability after being grown in the lab for a long time.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability during Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
