Research cited in this study

4 / 4 results

research 3D Printing of Microneedle Arrays for Hair Regeneration in a Controllable Region

16 citations , January 2023 in “Molecular Biomedicine”

This study demonstrated that customized microneedle arrays can precisely induce targeted hair regeneration and improve hair quality in mice, potentially offering a personalized treatment approach for hair loss.

research Conditioned Media-Integrated Microneedles for Hair Regeneration Through Perifollicular Angiogenesis

12 citations , August 2022 in “Journal of Controlled Release”

In this study, a microneedle patch containing conditioned media from hypoxia-pretreated stem cells enhanced hair regeneration in an androgenetic alopecia mouse model by boosting perifollicular vascularization and hair follicle stem cell activation compared to minoxidil.

Bald Scalp in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia Retains Hair Follicle Stem Cells but Lacks CD200-Rich and CD34-Positive Hair Follicle Progenitor Cells

research Bald Scalp in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia Retains Hair Follicle Stem Cells but Lacks CD200-Rich and CD34-Positive Hair Follicle Progenitor Cells

235 citations , January 2011 in “Journal of Clinical Investigation”

This study found that androgenetic alopecia may involve a defect in the conversion of hair follicle stem cells to progenitor cells, as demonstrated by a reduced presence of progenitor cells in bald scalp samples.

research Control of Hair Growth and Follicle Size by VEGF-Mediated Angiogenesis

520 citations , February 2001 in “Journal of Clinical Investigation”

This study found that VEGF significantly enhances perifollicular vascularization during the hair growth phase, accelerating hair regrowth and increasing follicle and hair size, while its inhibition retards hair growth.
