July 2022 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” In this study, researchers created a comprehensive transcriptome map of human hair follicle compartments, identifying compartment-specific genes and providing a resource for potential therapeutic interventions.
November 2022 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicles, identifying compartment-specific gene expression profiles that can aid in developing targeted therapies for hair follicle disorders.
November 2025 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Disrupted cell interactions in hair follicles contribute to hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
June 2026 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study developed a comprehensive atlas of human scalp tissue to uncover cell states and lineages in hair follicles, identifying disease-specific cellular changes associated with non-scarring and scarring hair loss, which may offer new diagnostic and therapeutic insights.
