October 2020 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology” This study found that resveratrol and fisetin promoted hair growth in mice by inducing telomerase reverse transcriptase expression, which activates hair follicle stem cells and transitions follicles from a resting to a growth phase.
37 citations
,
June 2019 in “Stem cells” This study found that extracellular vesicles from stimulated human dermal fibroblasts enhanced hair follicle growth ex vivo by activating dermal papilla cells and involving the Norrin and β-catenin pathways.
38 citations
,
June 2019 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This review discusses the potential role of extracellular vesicles in modulating hair follicle dynamics and reports no new clinical results; future investigations may inform treatment strategies for skin disorders.
58 citations
,
March 2019 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study suggests that exosomes derived from dermal papilla cells, especially those cultured in three dimensions, promote hair growth and regeneration by enhancing follicular cell activity.
71 citations
,
January 2019 in “International journal of biological sciences” This study proposes the miR-22-5p-LEF1 axis as a novel pathway that may regulate hair follicle stem cell proliferation.
87 citations
,
April 2018 in “Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications” In this study, dermal papilla cell-derived exosomes accelerated hair follicle growth in mice, suggesting potential for treating hair loss by modulating key signaling pathways.
113 citations
,
November 2017 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that treatment with mesenchymal stem cell extracellular vesicles enhanced hair growth in mice and stimulated dermal papilla cell activity and growth factor production in vitro.
105 citations
,
October 2017 in “Stem cells” This review discusses Wnt signaling pathways in skin development and stem cell regulation, highlighting potential interactions with other pathways but reports no new findings.
3 citations
,
April 2016 in “Food Science and Biotechnology” This study found that Oriental melon leaf extracts promoted hair growth in a mouse model and cultured human hair follicles, suggesting potential use as a treatment for hair loss.
414 citations
,
August 2005 in “Nature” In this study, researchers discovered that activating TERT in mouse skin epithelium triggers dormant hair follicle stem cells, leading to rapid hair growth, through a pathway independent of telomere extension.
