3D microenvironments in microwells improve hair follicle stem cell behavior and hair regeneration.
research Context-dependent effect of sPLA2-IIA induced proliferation on murine hair follicle stem cells and human epithelial cancer
sPLA2-IIA increases growth in hair follicle stem cells and cancer cells, suggesting it could be targeted for hair growth and cancer treatment.
research 5α-Reductase activity in the human hair follicle concentrates in the dermal papilla
The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.
research (Neuro-)endocrinology of epithelial hair follicle stem cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
