Research
810-840 / 1000+ results research Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) activator expressed in hair follicles is involved in in vitro HGF-dependent hair follicle elongation
HGF activator helps convert HGF to its active form, promoting hair growth.
research 260 Establishment and characterization of human sebocytic progenitor cells that can differentiate into functional sebocytes
Researchers created human cells that can turn into sebocytes, which may help study and treat skin conditions like acne.
research As a carrier–transporter for hair follicle reconstitution, platelet-rich plasma promotes proliferation and induction of mouse dermal papilla cells
Platelet-rich plasma can help grow more mouse hair follicles, but it doesn't work for human hair follicles yet.
research Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Hair Follicle–Specific Gene, Hacl-1
Researchers found a new gene, hacl-1, that is active in mouse hair follicles during hair growth and may be important for hair biology.
research LB788 Development of a novel three-dimensional human epidermal model from plucked hair follicle-derived keratinocytes
Scientists created a new 3D skin model from cells of plucked hairs that works like real skin and is easier to get.
research Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Intensive stress impedes hair follicle growth through triggering cell cycle arrest of hair follicle stem cells
Intense stress stops hair growth by halting hair follicle stem cell activity.
research Constitutive Stat3 activation alters behavior of hair follicle stem and progenitor cell populations
Increased Stat3 activity reduces hair follicle stem cells and boosts other stem/progenitor cells.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Keratin 79 identifies a novel population of migratory epithelial cells that initiates hair canal morphogenesis and regeneration.
Keratin 79 cells help form and regenerate hair canals.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research In vitro Keratin Expression of Hair Cells
Hair cells grown in a lab showed specific hair proteins.
research Hair morphogenesisin vitro: formation of hair structures suitable for implantation
Scientists created early-stage hairs from mouse cells that grew into normal, pigmented hair when implanted into other mice.
research Hairy tale of signaling in hair follicle development and cycling
Hair growth and development are controlled by specific signaling pathways.
research Cryptomphalus aspersa Mollusc Egg Extract Promotes Regenerative Effects in Human Dermal Papilla Stem Cells
Mollusc egg extract helps skin and hair cells grow and heal.
research RETRACTED ARTICLE: Up-regulated lncRNA5322 elevates MAPK1 to enhance proliferation of hair follicle stem cells as a ceRNA of microRNA-19b-3p
A specific RNA increases hair stem cell growth and skin healing by affecting a protein through interaction with a microRNA.
research EGFR : stopping stathmin to start the cycle
EGFR helps hair follicles transition properly by controlling Stathmin levels.
research An estrogen receptor pathway regulates the telogen-anagen hair follicle transition and influences epidermal cell proliferation.
Estrogen affects hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Linking Morphogen and Chromatin in the Hair Follicle
Brg1 is crucial for keeping hair follicle stem cells and repairing skin, working with the Sonic Hedgehog pathway to promote hair growth.
research Preservation of a specialized phenotype of dermal papilla cells of a human hair follicle under cultivation conditions
Specific conditions are needed to keep hair follicle cells effective for hair growth.
research 905 Dysfunction of hair follicle mesenchymal progenitors is associated with age-related hair loss
Age-related hair loss is linked to the decline and dysfunction of hair follicle stem cells.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration
The book "Hair Follicle Regeneration" discusses the potential of regenerating human hair follicles or activating dormant ones as a possible cure for baldness, and the promising role of new technologies like 3D printing in this field.
research HaCaT‑conditioned medium supplemented with the small molecule inhibitors SB431542 and CHIR99021 and the growth factor PDGF‑AA prevents the dedifferentiation of dermal papilla cells in vitro

research The epidermal growth factor receptor decreases S tathmin 1 and triggers catagen entry in the mouse
EGFR helps mouse hair follicles stop growing by reducing certain growth regulators.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Fgf9 from dermal γδ T cells induces hair follicle neogenesis after wounding.
FGF9 from certain cells can trigger new hair growth during wound healing, but humans have fewer of these cells, which may limit hair regrowth.
