February 2019 in “Chin J Injury Repair and Wound Healing(Electronic Edition)” Porcine acellular dermal matrix helps hair growth by boosting specific proteins and signals.
Ovol2 is crucial for hair growth and skin healing by controlling cell movement and growth.
April 2018 in “Radiotherapy and Oncology” Prostaglandin helps regenerate hair follicles after radiation damage.
January 2017 in “Journal of clinical & experimental dermatology research” Scientists have found a way to create hair follicles from human stem cells, which could potentially be used to treat hair loss.
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.
August 2013 in “Nature Reviews Drug Discovery” A protein called FGF9 helps regenerate hair follicles in mice after skin damage, and increasing FGF9 could potentially help human hair growth.
Integrin alphavbeta6 is important for wound healing and hair growth, and blocking it may improve these processes.
January 2008 in “The Year book of dermatology” After skin injury, adult mice can grow new hair follicles, and this process can be increased or stopped by manipulating Wnt signals.
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.
