research Stimulation of the Follicular Bulge LGR5+ and LGR6+ Stem Cells with the Gut-Derived Human Alpha Defensin 5 Results in Decreased Bacterial Presence, Enhanced Wound Healing, and Hair Growth from Tissues Devoid of Adnexal Structures
Human alpha defensin 5 helps heal wounds, reduce bacteria, and grow hair on burned skin.
research Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Differential expression of stem cell markers in human follicular bulge and interfollicular epidermal compartments
Different markers are found in stem cells of the scalp's hair follicle bulge and the surrounding skin.
research Stem Cells behind the Barrier
Stem cell differentiation is crucial for skin barrier maintenance and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research Induction of hair follicle neogenesis with cultured mouse dermal papilla cells in de novo regenerated skin tissues
Scientists successfully grew new hair follicles in regenerated mouse skin using mouse and human cells.
research Skin Epidermis and Adnexa Regrowth Induced by Treatment With Artificial Dermal Template After Full-Thickness Skin Wound
Artificial dermal template treatment can stimulate complete skin and hair follicle regrowth.
research 606 Connecting signaling dynamics with cell fates in live mice
Stem cells control their future role by changing ERK signal timing, affecting tissue regeneration and cancer.
research Skin Regeneration
New materials and methods could improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
research In This Issue

research Treatment of Full-Thickness Skin Wounds with Blood-Derived CD34+ Precursor Cells Enhances Healing with Hair Follicle Regeneration
Blood-derived CD34+ cells speed up healing, reduce scarring, and regrow hair in skin wounds.
research 841 Minoxidil dose response study in female pattern hair loss patients determined to be non-responders to 5% topical Minoxidil
Higher minoxidil dose helps hair growth in non-responders without side effects.
research 837 From genotoxic stresses to skin damage: Distinct, novel mechanisms of skin and hair damage in chemo/radiation therapy
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy cause skin and hair damage by altering gene expression and signaling pathways.
research Engineering Pro‐Regenerative Hydrogels for Scarless Wound Healing
Hydrogels could lead to better treatments for wound healing without scars.
research Animal models of alopecia
The best animal model for studying male-pattern baldness is the stumptailed macaque, not rats or mice.
research Dialogues in Dermatology: Highlights from 2011
2011 dermatology discussions highlighted stem cell hair treatments, new lichen planopilaris therapies, skin side effects from cancer drugs, emerging allergens, and the link between food allergies and skin issues.
research Adipogenic Differentiation of Canine Hair Follicle Stem Cells (cHFSCs)
Dog hair follicle stem cells can turn into fat cells.
research 1332 Understanding the role of glycogen metabolism in human hair follicle biology
