November 1998 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that the S100A3 gene is exclusively expressed in hair follicle cells differentiating into hair shaft components in mice, suggesting its important role in hair formation.
August 1994 in “Molecular Endocrinology” This study found that AtT-20 pituitary cells with higher cAMP-dependent kinase activity had larger calcium currents and significantly increased beta-endorphin release compared to cells with lower kinase activity.

August 2021 in “Biomedicines” This study found that 17β-estradiol was the most powerful hormone for inducing APE1/Ref-1 secretion in cultured vascular endothelial cells, with secretion occurring through exosomes dependent on estrogen receptors and intracellular calcium.

October 1997 in “Journal of biological chemistry/The Journal of biological chemistry” This study suggests that trichohyalin is modified by peptidyl-arginine deiminase before being cross-linked by TGase 3, allowing the formation of rigid structures in hair follicle cells.
January 2026 in “Applied Sciences” In this study, cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) treatment in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells was associated with increased intracellular calcium retention and activated anagen-related signaling without causing significant cytotoxicity, indicating its potential impact on hair growth processes.
