research The control of hair growth: An overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research The activin binding proteins follistatin and follistatin-related protein are differentially regulated in vitro and during cutaneous wound repair
FLRG and follistatin have different roles in wound healing.
research Azasteroids as inhibitors of testosterone 5α-reductase in mammalian skin
Certain 4-azasteroids are effective at blocking the enzyme that processes testosterone in human skin and could help treat acne, excessive hair growth, and male pattern baldness.
research Regenerative Medicine Approaches for Engineering a Human Hair Follicle
New treatments for hair loss show promise, including plasma, stem cells, and hair-stimulating complexes, but more research is needed to fully understand them.
research 1456 Tensor effect of anigozanthos flavidus flower extract: Modulation of tenascin-X to regenerate the skin
Anigozanthos Flavidus flower extract helps regenerate skin and reduce wrinkles.
research Hair follicle regeneration in vitro
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.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Hairless-knockout piglets generated using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat/CRISPR-associated-9 exhibit abnormalities in the skin and thymus
Pigs without the Hairless gene showed skin and thymus changes, useful for studying human hair disorders.
research Skin organoids: A new human model for developmental and translational research
Skin organoids are a promising new model for studying human skin development and testing treatments.
research Regenerative Medicine of Epidermal Structures
New treatments for skin and hair repair show promise, but further improvements are needed.
research Molecular Control of Epithelial–Mesenchymal Interactions During Hair Follicle Cycling
Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions control hair growth cycles through specific molecular signals.
research The Experimental Study on the Effect of Herbal Exrtacts on Hair Growth and Acnes
Rubus coreanum may help hair growth but not through the tested mechanisms, and none of the herbal extracts help with acne.
research Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma: A Potential Therapeutic Tool for Promoting Hair Growth
Platelet-rich plasma can potentially promote hair growth by stimulating cell growth and increasing certain proteins.
research The mesenchymal component of hair follicle neogenesis: background, methods and molecular characterization
The document concludes that specific cells are essential for hair growth and more research is needed to understand how to maintain their hair-inducing properties.
research MicroRNA-214 controls skin and hair follicle development by modulating the activity of the Wnt pathway
MicroRNA-214 is important for skin and hair growth because it affects the Wnt pathway.
research FOXN1: A Master Regulator Gene of Thymic Epithelial Development Program
The FOXN1 gene is crucial for developing immune cells and preventing immune disorders.
research Promotional Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma on Hair Follicle Reconstitution in vivo
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) increases the number of new hair follicles and speeds up hair formation.
research Controllable Production of Transplantable Adult Human High-Passage Dermal Papilla Spheroids Using 3D Matrigel Culture
Researchers created hair-inducing human cell clusters using a 3D culture method.
research Organotypic Skin Culture
Organotypic culture systems can grow skin tissues that mimic real skin functions and are useful for skin disease and hair growth research, but they don't fully replicate skin complexity.
research FOXN1 Deficiency: from the Discovery to Novel Therapeutic Approaches
New treatments for immune disorders caused by FOXN1 deficiency are promising.
research Reconstructed human skin shows epidermal invagination towards integrated neopapillae indicating early hair follicle formation in vitro
The experiment showed that human skin grown in the lab started to form early hair structures when special cell clusters were added.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin.
Thyroid hormones affect skin texture, hair and nail growth, and can cause skin diseases related to thyroid problems.
research 5α-Reductase type 1 inhibition of Oryza sativa bran extract prepared by supercritical carbon dioxide fluid
Rice bran extract might help prevent hair loss.
research 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid Promoted Hair Pigmentation Through β-Catenin and Its Target Genes
A substance called TCQA could potentially darken hair by activating certain genes and increasing melanin.
research Human platelet lysate versus minoxidil stimulates hair growth by activating anagen promoting signaling pathways
Both human platelet lysate and minoxidil can promote hair growth, but they affect different genes and cell survival rates.
research Raising hairs
Stem cell treatments can potentially treat baldness, with one trial showing hair growth after injecting a hair-stimulating complex, and no safety issues were reported.
research Never too old to regenerate? Wound induced hair follicle neogenesis after secondary intention healing in a geriatric patient
An 80-year-old patient grew new hair on a wound, showing that elderly people can still regenerate hair.
research Scarless wound healing – a literature review
Fetal skin can heal without scarring, offering insights for new scar-reducing treatments.
research Human Pilosebaceous Culture
Hair follicle cells can help heal wounds and study skin diseases.
