research Ultraviolet Radiation in Wound Care: Sterilization and Stimulation
UV radiation can help sterilize wounds and promote healing but requires careful use to avoid damaging cells.
research Human hair follicles contain two forms of ATP‐ sensitive potassium channels, only one of which is sensitive to minoxidil
One minoxidil-sensitive potassium channel exists in human hair follicles.
research Hormonal regulation of hair follicles exhibits a biological paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Epidermal Development in Mammals: Key Regulators, Signals from Beneath, and Stem Cells
Skin development in mammals is controlled by key proteins and signals from underlying cells, involving stem cells for maintenance and repair.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research Bioengineering a 3D integumentary organ system from iPS cells using an in vivo transplantation model
Researchers created a fully functional, bioengineered skin system with hair from stem cells that successfully integrated when transplanted into mice.
research Costunolide—A Bioactive Sesquiterpene Lactone with Diverse Therapeutic Potential
Costunolide may have multiple health benefits, including promoting hair growth and protecting against cancer and diabetes, but more research is needed.
research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Exosomal Micro RNAs Derived from Dermal Papilla Cells Mediate Hair Follicle Stem Cell Proliferation and Differentiation
Exosomes from dermal papilla cells help hair growth by making hair follicle stem cells multiply and change.
research The current role of laser/light sources in the treatment of male and female pattern hair loss
Laser/light treatments for hair loss are popular but lack scientific data proving effectiveness.
research Dissecting the microenvironment around biosynthetic scaffolds in murine skin wound healing
Different scaffold patterns improve wound healing and immune response in mouse skin, with aligned patterns being particularly effective.
research Hair organ regeneration via the bioengineered hair follicular unit transplantation
Scientists successfully created and transplanted bioengineered hair follicles that function like natural ones, suggesting a new treatment for hair loss.
research Systematic Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma Use in Androgenetic Alopecia Compared with Minoxidil®, Finasteride®, and Adult Stem Cell-Based Therapy
PRP injections may be a safe, effective alternative for hair loss treatment compared to minoxidil and finasteride.
research Comparison of Healthy and Dandruff Scalp Microbiome Reveals the Role of Commensals in Scalp Health
Certain bacteria and fungi are linked to healthy scalps and dandruff, suggesting that the scalp's microbial balance affects its health.
research Treatment of MSCs with Wnt1a-conditioned medium activates DP cells and promotes hair follicle regrowth
Wnt1a-conditioned medium from stem cells helps activate cells important for hair growth and can promote hair regrowth.
research Methods for the isolation and 3D culture of dermal papilla cells from human hair follicles
The document describes a way to isolate and grow human hair follicle cells in 3D to help study hair growth.
research The prostamide‐related glaucoma therapy, bimatoprost, offers a novel approach for treating scalp alopecias
Bimatoprost, a glaucoma medication, may also help treat hair loss.
research Profiling the Response of Human Hair Follicles to Ultraviolet Radiation
UVB radiation harms hair growth and health, causing cell death and other changes in human hair follicles.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Hair-Cycle-Dependent Expression of Parathyroid Hormone-Related Protein and its Type I Receptor: Evidence for Regulation at the Anagen to Catagen Transition
Parathyroid hormone-related protein helps control hair growth phases in mice.
research Anti-androgenic Activity of Myricae Cortex. Isolation of Active Constituents from Bark of Myrica rubra.
