research Cultured Peribulbar Dermal Sheath Cells Can Induce Hair Follicle Development and Contribute to the Dermal Sheath and Dermal Papilla
Certain cells from hair follicles can create new hair and contribute to hair growth when implanted in mice.
research Premature graying of hair
Premature graying of hair may suggest health issues and currently lacks effective treatments.
research Peripheral blood gene expression in alopecia areata reveals molecular pathways distinguishing heritability, disease and severity
Blood tests can help understand the genetic differences in people with alopecia areata, including how severe it is and if it's inherited.
research Permanent alopecia in patients with breast cancer after taxane chemotherapy and adjuvant hormonal therapy: Clinicopathologic findings in a cohort of 10 patients
Some breast cancer patients developed permanent hair loss after chemotherapy and hormonal therapy, showing patterns similar to common baldness and alopecia areata.
research Wound Healing: A Cellular Perspective
The document concludes that better targeted treatments are needed for wound healing, and single-cell technologies may improve cell-based therapies.
research Probing the Effects of Stress Mediators on the Human Hair Follicle
Stress-related substance P may lead to hair loss and negatively affect hair growth.
research The role of tight junctions in skin barrier function and dermal absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Emerging nonmetabolic functions of skin fat
Skin fat has important roles in hair growth, skin repair, immune defense, and aging, and could be targeted for skin and hair treatments.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor β2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
research Treatment of MSCs with Wnt1a-conditioned medium activates DP cells and promotes hair follicle regrowth
Wnt1a-conditioned medium from stem cells helps activate cells important for hair growth and can promote hair regrowth.
research Reorganization of hair follicles in human skin organ culture induced by cultured human follicle-derived cells
Injected human hair follicle cells can create new, small hair follicles in skin cultures.
research TGF‐β2 is specifically expressed in human dermal papilla cells and modulates hair folliculogenesis
TGF-β2 plays a key role in human hair growth and development.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research Aging in hair follicle stem cells and niche microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research Genetically-manipulated adult stem cells as therapeutic agents and gene delivery vehicle for wound repair and regeneration
Genetically-altered adult stem cells can help in wound healing and are becoming crucial in regenerative medicine and drug design.
research Hair physiology and its disorders
Different hair growth problems are caused by genetic issues or changes in hair growth cycles, and new treatments are being developed.
research The Hair Follicle: An Underutilized Source of Cells and Materials for Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.
research Exploring the “brain-skin connection”: Leads and lessons from the hair follicle
Hair follicles on the scalp interact with and respond to the nervous system, influencing their own behavior and growth.
research Ectodysplasin research—Where to next?
Future research on ectodysplasin should explore its role in diseases, stem cells, and evolution, and continue developing treatments for genetic disorders like hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
research Are hair follicle stem cells promising candidates for wound healing?
Hair follicle stem cells are promising for wound healing but require more research for safe clinical use.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research Epidermal stem cells: an update on their potential in regenerative medicine
Epidermal stem cells have potential for personalized regenerative medicine but need careful handling to avoid cancer.
research Hair follicle changes following intense pulsed light axillary hair reduction: histometrical, histological and immunohistochemical evaluation
Intense pulsed light treatment effectively reduces underarm hair by making hair follicles smaller and extending their resting phase.
research Alopecia in a Viable Phospholipase C Delta 1 and Phospholipase C Delta 3 Double Mutant
Mutations in Plcd1 and Plcd3 together cause severe hair loss in mice.
research A Mixture of Tocopherol Acetate and L-Menthol Synergistically Promotes Hair Growth in C57BL/6 Mice
A mix of tocopherol acetate and L-menthol helps grow hair better than using them separately or using minoxidil.
research Anagen hair follicles transplanted into mature human scars remodel fibrotic tissue
Transplanting growing hair follicles into scars can help regenerate and improve scar tissue.
research Assessment of markers expressed in human hair follicles according to different skin regions
Different body parts have varying levels of certain hair follicle markers.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
