March 2018 in “Biomaterials” Three specific proteins can turn adult skin cells into hair-growing cells, suggesting a new hair loss treatment.
24 citations
,
April 2012 in “Developmental Biology” Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase. These cells rarely divide, but their ability to shape tissue may contribute to their efficiency in inducing hair growth.
January 2008 in “The Year book of dermatology” After skin injury, adult mice can grow new hair follicles, and this process can be increased or stopped by manipulating Wnt signals.
5 citations
,
January 2023 in “Nature cell biology” A specific signal from hair cells controls the tightening of the surrounding muscle, which is necessary for hair shedding.
January 2012 in “Institutional Repositories DataBase (IRDB)” Cells from skin and lung can help regenerate hair follicles.
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Scientists have found a way to grow hair follicles from human cells in a lab, which could help treat hair loss and skin damage.
May 2024 in “Journal of colloid and interface science” The hydrogel helps skin heal by encouraging new blood vessel growth.
GPC1 is important for blood vessel growth in hair follicles and could help treat hair loss.
305 citations
,
June 2012 in “Nature” Hair regeneration needs dynamic cell behavior and mesenchyme presence for stem cell activation.
25 citations
,
August 2010 in “Acta Biomaterialia” Researchers developed a method to grow hair follicle cells for transplantation using a special chip.
November 2025 in “Bioengineering” The new method may improve skin grafts and hair growth.

December 2015 in “Journal of Materials Chemistry B” Scientists have created a method to deliver specific cells that can regenerate hair follicles, potentially offering a new treatment for hair loss.
1 citations
,
January 2022 in “Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine” New treatments are needed for hair loss, and cell therapies might reverse hair thinning.
8 citations
,
November 2019 in “Tissue Engineering Part A” Functionalized collagen scaffolds applied prenatally greatly improve skin regeneration.
Hair follicle-like structures can form when specific hair cells are mixed and implanted in mice.
May 2017 in “Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology”
December 2016 in “Paleontological Journal” Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
29 citations
,
January 2021 in “Journal of nanobiotechnology” Tiny particles from brain cells help hair grow by targeting a specific hair growth pathway.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Dermal lymphatic vessels help hair growth by affecting hair cycle phases.
9 citations
,
August 2013 in “Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine” Transplanted baby mouse skin cells grew normal hair using a new, efficient method.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Hair growth is driven by cells that move and change like a conveyor belt.
Researchers developed a method to create artificial hair follicles that may help with hair loss treatment and research.
34 citations

January 1983 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”
August 2023 in “Micromachines” The new method can create hair follicle-like structures but not complete hair with roots and shafts, needing more improvement.
January 2022 in “Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine” Improving dermal papilla cells can help regenerate hair follicles.
June 2013 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” A substance called FGF9 from certain immune cells can trigger new hair growth during wound healing in mice, but humans may not have the same response due to fewer of these cells.
