Certain human skin cells marked by CD44 and ALDH are rich in stem cells capable of long-term skin renewal.
research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research Study of gene expression alteration in male androgenetic alopecia: evidence of predominant molecular signalling pathways
Hair loss involves immune responses, inflammation, and disrupted signaling pathways.
research Hair follicle characteristics and fibre production in South American camelids
South American camelids should be sheared early, fleece type affects fiber quality, and the S/P follicle ratio doesn't distinguish between Bolivian llama genotypes.
research Self‐organizing hair peg‐like structures from dissociated skin progenitor cells: New insights for human hair follicle organoid engineering and Turing patterning in an asymmetric morphogenetic field
Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.
research Roles of GasderminA3 in Catagen–Telogen Transition During Hair Cycling
GasderminA3 is important for normal hair cycle transitions by controlling Wnt signaling.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge do not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration after Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.
research A Monoallelic Two-Hit Mechanism in PLCD1 Explains the Genetic Pathogenesis of Hereditary Trichilemmal Cyst Formation
A specific gene change plus an additional mutation in the same gene cause hereditary trichilemmal cysts.
research A guide to studying human dermal adipocytes in situ

research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research Msx2 Supports Epidermal Competency during Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Neogenesis
The gene Msx2 is crucial for hair follicle regeneration during wound healing.
research Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Human Papillomavirus E6/E7 Oncogenes Promote Mouse Ear Regeneration by Increasing the Rate of Wound Re-epithelization and Epidermal Growth
HPV genes in mice improve ear tissue healing by speeding up skin growth and repair.
research TSA restores hair follicle-inductive capacity of skin-derived precursors
Trichostatin A helps restore hair-growing ability in skin cells used for hair regeneration.
research Expression patterns of the glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor, neurturin, their cognate receptors GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and a common signal transduction element c-Ret in the human skin hair follicles
Certain proteins and their receptors are more active during the growth phase of human hair and could be targeted to treat hair disorders.
research From basal cell carcinoma morphogenesis to the alopecia induced by hedgehog inhibitors: connecting the dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
