February 2020 in “Int J Biologicals” Super-activated platelet lysate significantly promotes hair regrowth in mice with androgenetic alopecia.
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.
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.
September 2016 in “Journal of Dermatological Science” The protein aPKCλ is crucial for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and for hair growth and regeneration.
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.
December 2012 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” The conclusion is that the dermal papilla is crucial for hair follicle regrowth, and hair follicles undergo significant structural changes in addition to cell division during regeneration.
October 2012 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Scientists used a special imaging technique to observe that hair follicle regeneration involves cell division and structural changes, mostly in the lower part of the follicle, and that the dermal papilla at the base is crucial for regrowth.
September 2012 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Scientists successfully created fully functional hair follicles using bioengineering methods and stem cells.
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.
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 regrowth doesn't come from existing hair cells but from skin cells in the wound, with Wnt7a protein helping this process. This could help treat baldness and scarring.
