January 2024 in “Advanced Science” In this study, researchers used a chemical cocktail and hydrogel microspheres to successfully guide fibroblasts into dermal papilla cells, promoting wound healing and in situ hair follicle regeneration while reducing scar formation, in both in vitro and in vivo experiments.
August 2025 in “Advanced Science” In this study, corrected data confirmed that AHFS seed microspheres exhibit good biocompatibility with fibroblasts, validating the initial results.
May 2026 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This study found that plucked hair follicles can serve as a practical and scalable source for regenerative medicine, as researchers successfully isolated and expanded keratinocytes and mesenchymal stem cells for potential cell-based and cell-free therapies, demonstrating significant wound-healing bioactivity in vitro.
This study found that increasing methionine in the diet of pregnant rabbits may stimulate the development of hair follicles and improve hair fiber diameter in their offspring.
