research The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Cutaneous Remodeling and Hair Follicle Dynamics
Tiny particles called extracellular vesicles could help with skin healing and hair growth, but more research is needed.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research 1α,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 Modulates the Hair-Inductive Capacity of Dermal Papilla Cells: Therapeutic Potential for Hair Regeneration
Vitamin D3 can help improve hair growth by enhancing the function of specific skin cells and could be useful in hair regeneration treatments.
research A role of placental growth factor in hair growth
Placental growth factor may help treat hair loss.
research A bald statement - Current approaches to manipulate miniaturisation focus only on promoting hair growth
The conclusion is that future hair loss treatments should target the root causes of hair thinning, not just promote hair growth.
research Immune modulation of hair follicle regeneration
Immune cells help regulate hair growth, and better understanding this can improve hair loss treatments.
research Adenosine stimulates growth of dermal papilla and lengthens the anagen phase by increasing the cysteine level via fibroblast growth factors 2 and 7 in an organ culture of mouse vibrissae hair follicles
Adenosine helps hair grow longer and stronger by boosting certain growth factors and signaling pathways.
research Microencapsulated human hair dermal papilla cells: a substitute for dermal papilla?
Encapsulated human hair cells can substitute for natural hair cells to grow hair.
research Review of Human Hair Follicle Biology: Dynamics of Niches and Stem Cell Regulation for Possible Therapeutic Hair Stimulation for Plastic Surgeons
Understanding hair follicle biology and stem cell control could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Hair growth control by innate immunocytes: Perifollicular macrophages revisited
Immune cells around hair follicles help control hair growth and could be targets for treating hair disorders.
research Getting under the skin of hair aging: the impact of the hair follicle environment
Aging scalp skin contributes to hair aging and loss, and more research is needed to develop better hair loss treatments.
research Cytokine loaded layer-by-layer ultrathin matrices to deliver single dermal papilla cells for spot-by-spot hair follicle regeneration
Scientists have created a method to deliver specific cells that can regenerate hair follicles, potentially offering a new treatment for hair loss.
research Dietary vitamin A regulates wingless-related MMTV integration site signaling to alter the hair cycle
Eating vitamin A affects hair growth and health by changing cell signals in mice.
research Expression patterns of the glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor, neurturin, their cognate receptors GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and a common signal transduction element c-Ret in the human skin hair follicles
Certain proteins and their receptors are more active during the growth phase of human hair and could be targeted to treat hair disorders.
research Erythropoietin promotes hair shaft growth in cultured human hair follicles and modulates hair growth in mice
Erythropoietin helps hair grow and could be a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Novel effect of sildenafil on hair growth
Sildenafil, often used for erectile dysfunction, may help hair growth.
research DPSCs and SHED in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine
DPSCs and SHED have great potential for medical treatments and tissue repair.

Norgalanthamine from Crinum asiaticum may help hair grow.
research Recreation of a hair follicle regenerative microenvironment: Successes and pitfalls
Hair growth environment recreated with challenges; stem cells make successful skin organoids.
research Keratin-mediated hair growth and its underlying biological mechanism
Keratin injections can promote hair growth by affecting hair-forming cells and tissue development.
research Runx Family Genes in Tissue Stem Cell Dynamics
Runx genes are important for stem cell regulation and their roles in aging and disease need more research.
research Non-apoptotic role for caspase-7 in hair follicles and the surrounding tissue
Caspase-7 has functions in skin and hair that are not related to cell death.
