research Large-scale cultivation of transplantable dermal papilla cellular aggregates using microfabricated PDMS arrays
Researchers developed a method to grow hair follicle cells for transplantation using a special chip.
research Advances in Hair Diseases
The review highlights the importance of stem cells in hair health and suggests new treatment strategies for hair loss conditions.
research Androgenetic alopecia: An autosomal dominant disorder
Hair loss in androgenetic alopecia is caused by genetic factors and androgen excess, and can be treated with combined therapies.
research Procyanidin B-2 and the hair-growing activity of proanthocyanidins
Procyanidin B-2 from apple juice significantly increases hair growth and may be more effective than minoxidil without side effects.
research The effect of oxygen supply using perfluorocarbon-based nanoemulsions on human hair growth
A new nanoemulsion increases oxygen for hair cells, leading to better hair growth.
research The role of dexamethasone in mediating the contradictory effects of Wnt antagonists SFRP2 and SFRP3 on human hair follicle growth
Dexamethasone affects hair growth by altering levels of proteins that either promote or inhibit hair follicle growth.
research Hair Today
The document concludes that understanding hair biology is key to treating hair disorders, with gene therapy showing potential as a future treatment.
research Regeneration of skin appendages and nerves: current status and further challenges
Progress has been made in skin and nerve regeneration, but more research is needed to improve methods and ensure safety.
research Heparan Sulfate Regulates Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
Heparan sulfate is important for hair growth, preventing new hair formation in mature skin, and controlling oil gland development.
research Alopecia: A Pathologist's View
The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.
research Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
Early diagnosis and aggressive treatment are key for managing rare scalp disorders that cause permanent hair loss.
research Eclipta prostrata promotes the induction of anagen, sustains the anagen phase through regulation of FGF-7 and FGF-5
Eclipta prostrata helps hair growth and maintains the growth phase by affecting certain growth factors.
research THBS4 promotes hair regeneration by inducing dermal mechanical niche adaptation
THBS4 helps hair grow by activating hair follicle stem cells.
research The Ayurvedic Management in Graying of Hair
Ayurvedic treatment can reverse premature graying and improve hair health.
research Alopecia

research Congenital Hypotrichosis in Japanese White Strain (JW-NIBS) Rabbits.
A single recessive gene causes sparse hair in certain Japanese White rabbits.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia versus lichen planopilaris: a clinicopathological study
The conclusion is that FFA and LPP have similar scalp biopsy features, making them hard to distinguish histologically, and FFA may be a specific kind of scarring hair loss.
research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Epithelial Skin Biology
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Strategies to enhance epithelial–mesenchymal interactions for human hair follicle bioengineering
Improving the environment and cell interactions is key for creating human hair in the lab.
