Hair follicle stem cells are a promising source for tissue repair and treating skin or hair diseases.
research Bi-allelic Mutations in LSS, Encoding Lanosterol Synthase, Cause Autosomal-Recessive Hypotrichosis Simplex
Mutations in the LSS gene cause a rare type of hereditary hair loss.
research Profiling the Response of Human Hair Follicles to Ultraviolet Radiation
UVB radiation harms hair growth and health, causing cell death and other changes in human hair follicles.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Lymphatic vessels interact dynamically with the hair follicle stem cell niche during skin regeneration in vivo
Lymphatic vessels are essential for hair follicle growth and skin regeneration.
research Dihydrotestosterone inhibits hair growth in mice by inhibiting insulin-like growth factor-I production in dermal papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research A role of placental growth factor in hair growth
Placental growth factor may help treat hair loss.
research Androgen Receptor Accelerates Premature Senescence of Human Dermal Papilla Cells in Association with DNA Damage
Androgen receptor signaling causes early aging of cells important for hair growth by damaging their DNA.
research Diagnostic approach to low‐renin hypertension
Recent genetic insights show that low-renin hypertension includes a range from essential hypertension to secondary or familial forms, affecting diagnosis and treatment.

Hedgehog signaling is crucial for mammary gland development over hair follicles.
research Crosstalk between androgen and Wnt/β-catenin leads to changes of wool density in FGF5-knockout sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research Morphogenesis and maintenance of the 3D thymic medulla and prevention of nude skin phenotype require FoxN1 in pre- and post-natal K14 epithelium
FoxN1 gene is essential for proper thymus structure and preventing hair loss.
research Enhanced viability and neural differential potential in poor post-thaw hADSCs by agarose multi-well dishes and spheroid culture
Spheroid culture in agarose dishes improves survival and nerve cell growth in thawed human fat-derived stem cells.
research Human epithelial stem cell survival within their niche requires “tonic” cannabinoid receptor 1‐signalling—Lessons from the hair follicle
Cannabinoid receptor-1 signaling is essential for the survival and growth of human hair follicle stem cells.
research Stress-sensing in the human greying hair follicle: Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) depletion in hair bulb melanocytes in canities-prone scalp
Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.
research Signal transducer and activator of transcription 5B deficiency due to a novel missense mutation in the coiled-coil domain
A boy's growth and immune problems were caused by a new mutation in the STAT5B gene.
research Genetically Induced Cell Death in Bulge Stem Cells Reveals Their Redundancy for Hair and Epidermal Regeneration
Hair and skin can regenerate without bulge stem cells due to other compensating cells.
research Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Hair Follicle Bulge Neural Crest Stem Cells
Hair follicle stem cells need all reprogramming factors to become pluripotent.
research The PER3 rs772027021 SNP induces pigmentation phenotypes of dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria
