The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research Regeneration of Chronic Wounds with Allogeneic Platelet Gel versus Hydrogel Treatment: a Prospective Study
Allogeneic platelet gel heals chronic wounds better than hydrogel.
research An Update on Drug-Induced Pigmentation
Some drugs can cause skin and hair color changes, often reversible when the drug is stopped.
research Opening new horizons in regenerative dermatology using platelet‐based autologous therapies
Platelet-based therapies using a patient's own blood show promise for skin and hair regeneration but require more research for confirmation.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma: Principles and Applications in Plastic Surgery
Platelet-rich plasma is beneficial in various plastic surgery applications, but more research is needed to standardize its use.
research The Hair Follicle Bulge: A Niche for Adult Stem Cells
The hair follicle bulge is an important area for adult stem cells involved in hair growth and repair, with potential for medical use needing more research.
research Identification of key genes induced by platelet-rich plasma in human dermal papilla cells using bioinformatics methods
Platelet-rich plasma may help hair follicle cells grow by affecting certain genes and pathways.
research The mechanism of activated platelet‐rich plasma supernatant promotion of hair growth by cultured dermal papilla cells
Activated platelet-rich plasma helps hair growth by boosting growth factors and cell growth pathways in hair cells.
research An updated review of the sebaceous gland and its role in health and diseases Part 1: Embryology, evolution, structure, and function of sebaceous glands
Sebaceous glands in our skin, developing during pregnancy and active in puberty, produce sebum for skin lubrication, temperature control, and fighting germs, also help in hormone regulation, and their dysfunction can cause conditions like acne and hair loss.
research Heat‐damaged evaluation of virgin hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
research A Spontaneous Fatp4/Scl27a4 Splice Site Mutation in a New Murine Model for Congenital Ichthyosis

research An Overview of the Biology of Platelet-Rich Plasma and Microneedling as Potential Treatments for Alopecia Areata
Platelet-rich plasma and microneedling could potentially help hair growth in people with alopecia areata, but more research is needed.
research Investigation of penetration abilities of various oils into human hair fibers
Some oils can penetrate hair and reduce the stickiness between fibers, but mineral oil cannot.
research Histological study of white rhinoceros integument
White rhinoceroses have a unique skin structure with thick epidermis and no hair or oil glands.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Sebaceous Gland Regeneration in Human Skin Xenografts
Human sebaceous glands can grow back in skin grafts on mice and work like normal human glands.
research Heterogeneity in amount of growth factors secreted by platelets in platelet‐rich plasma samples from alopecia patients
PRP therapy for alopecia shows inconsistent results due to natural variability in growth factor secretion by platelets.

The PRP-like cosmetic with biomimetic peptides is potentially effective and safe for treating alopecia areata.
research Paracrine Secreted Frizzled-Related Protein 4 Inhibits Melanocytes Differentiation in Hair Follicle
A protein called sFRP4 from skin cells stops the development of pigment-producing cells in hair.
research Morphological analysis of polymers on hair fibers by SEM and AFM
Polyquaternium 7® builds up on hair, improving its look and feel, and AFM is good for measuring these changes.
research Vitamin D and platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) in the treatment of vitiligo
PRP combined with vitamin D improves vitiligo more effectively than vitamin D alone.
