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.
May 2007 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Hair can regrow in adult mice's skin after injury, and this process can be boosted by increasing Wnt7a, a protein. This could potentially help treat baldness and change our understanding of hair growth.
May 2007 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Hair can regrow in adult mice's skin after injury, and this regrowth doesn't come from existing hair cells but from skin cells in the wound, with Wnt7a protein helping this process. This could help treat baldness and scarring.
