Exosomes are crucial for protecting sensory hair cells in the inner ear.
research Effect of topical application of raspberry ketone on dermal production of insulin-like growth factor-I in mice and on hair growth and skin elasticity in humans
Raspberry ketone may help grow hair and improve skin elasticity.
research Dihydrotestosterone inhibits hair growth in mice by inhibiting insulin-like growth factor-I production in dermal papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research Transcriptomic inspection revealed a possible pathway regulating the formation of the high-quality brush hair in Chinese Haimen goat ( Capra hircus )
Scientists found genes linked to the growth of high-quality brush hair in Chinese Haimen goats.
research Finasteride administration potentiates the disruption of prepulse inhibition induced by forced swim stress
Finasteride worsens stress effects on sensory processes, possibly linking to anxiety/depression.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research Developmental Plasticity of Patterned and Regenerating Oral Organs
Fish teeth and taste bud densities are linked and can change between types due to shared genetic and molecular factors.
research Hair Transplantation in Migraine Headache Patients
Some migraine sufferers had no more headaches after getting a hair transplant.
research Estimating Scalp Moisture in a Hat Using Wearable Sensors
A hat with sensors can measure scalp moisture well, helping with hair care.
research Dietary isoflavone increases insulin-like growth factor-I production, thereby promoting hair growth in mice
Eating isoflavone can help mice grow hair by increasing a growth factor.
research Sensory Reinnervation of Human Skin by Human Neural Stem Cell‒Derived Peripheral Neurons Ex Vivo
Human skin can be reconnected to nerves using stem cells, which may help with skin health and healing.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research A neuroendocrinological perspective on human hair follicle pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Hair melanocytes as neuro-endocrine sensors—Pigments for our imagination
Hair melanocytes help the skin respond to stress and regulate hair pigmentation.
research From Piezoelectric Nanogenerator to Non-Invasive Medical Sensor: A Review
Piezoelectric Nanogenerators are promising for non-invasive health monitoring but need efficiency and durability improvements.
research Advances in Digital Light Processing (DLP) Bioprinting: A Review of Biomaterials and Its Applications, Innovations, Challenges, and Future Perspectives
DLP bioprinting shows promise for medical uses, but needs more material options and strength improvements.
research Recent Advances in the Electro-Active Therapeutic Phytochemical-Based Sensors
Plant-based sensors can help in healthcare but need skilled technicians.
research Montagna Symposium 2016—The Skin: Our Sensory Organ for Itch, Pain, Touch, and Pleasure

research Development and Prospective Applications of 3D Membranes as a Sensor for Monitoring and Inducing Tissue Regeneration
3D-printed membranes with smart sensors can greatly improve tissue healing and have many medical applications.
research Health Benefits, Antioxidant Activity, and Sensory Attributes of Selected Cold-Pressed Oils
Cold-pressed rapeseed oil is most resistant to oxidation and certain oils may reduce chronic disease risk; consumers like the taste of pumpkin oil best.
research Defining the Cellular Environment in the Organ of Corti following Extensive Hair Cell Loss: A Basis for Future Sensory Cell Replacement in the Cochlea
The conclusion is that genetic differences affect how the cochlea heals after hair cell loss, which may challenge the creation of hearing loss treatments.
research Delta Opioid Receptors Presynaptically Regulate Cutaneous Mechanosensory Neuron Input to the Spinal Cord Dorsal Horn
Delta opioid receptors help regulate touch sensation by reducing neurotransmitter release in the spinal cord.
