research Hair Follicle Dermal Stem Cells Regenerate the Dermal Sheath, Repopulate the Dermal Papilla, and Modulate Hair Type
Hair follicle dermal stem cells are key for regenerating parts of the hair follicle and determining hair type.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.

Human hair follicle organ culture is a useful model for hair research with potential for studying hair biology and testing treatments.
research The cycling hair follicle as an ideal systems biology research model
The hair follicle is a great model for research to improve hair growth treatments.
research Modulating hair follicle size with W nt10b/DKK 1 during hair regeneration
Wnt10b makes hair follicles bigger, but DKK1 can reverse this effect.
research Functional hair follicle regeneration: an updated review
Hair follicle regeneration possible, more research needed.
research Compartmentation of Mitochondrial and Oxidative Metabolism in Growing Hair Follicles: A Ring of Fire
Growing hair follicles have high mitochondrial activity and ROS in specific regions, aiding hair formation.
research Aging in hair follicle stem cells and niche microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Human hair follicles operate an internal Cori cycle and modulate their growth via glycogen phosphorylase
Inhibiting glycogen metabolism can promote hair growth.
research Immune modulation of hair follicle regeneration
Immune cells help regulate hair growth, and better understanding this can improve hair loss treatments.
research Hair Follicle Signaling Networks: A Dermal Papilla–Centric Approach
The document concludes that dermal papilla cells are key for hair growth and could be used in new hair loss treatments.
research Review of Human Hair Follicle Biology: Dynamics of Niches and Stem Cell Regulation for Possible Therapeutic Hair Stimulation for Plastic Surgeons
Understanding hair follicle biology and stem cell control could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Activated Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Wnt/β-catenin Signaling Involve in Pathnogenesis of Sebaceous Neoplasms
Abnormal activation of hair follicle stem cells and Wnt/β-catenin signaling contributes to sebaceous neoplasms.
research Anagen hair follicle repair: Timely regenerative attempts from plastic extra‐bulge epithelial cells
Certain cells outside the hair follicle's bulge area can quickly regenerate damaged hair follicles, potentially helping to reduce hair loss from cancer treatments.
research Enhancing hair follicle regeneration by nonablative fractional laser: Assessment of irradiation parameters and tissue response
Using a fractional laser can stimulate hair growth, but the intensity and duration of inflammation are crucial. Too much can cause ulcers and scarring. Lower beam energy and fewer treatments are recommended to avoid damage.
research Hair follicles and their role in skin health
Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.
research The intragenic mRNA-microRNA regulatory network during telogen-anagen hair follicle transition in the cashmere goat
The research found that a complex gene network, controlled by microRNAs, is important for hair growth in cashmere goats.
research Expression of mesenchymal stem cell marker CD90 on dermal sheath cells of the anagen hair follicle in canine species
CD90 is present on specific cells in dog hair follicles.
research Seasonal Gene Expression Profile Responsible for Hair Follicle Development in Angora goats
Seasonal changes affect hair growth genes in Angora goats, possibly influencing mohair quality.
research 883 Hair follicle bulb developed as 3D scaffold free microtissue
