Glossary Cell Cycle

series of stages a cell undergoes to grow and divide

The cell cycle, also known as the cell division cycle, is the series of stages that a cell goes through to grow and divide. It consists of four main phases: G1 (cell growth), S (DNA replication), G2 (preparation for mitosis), and M (mitosis, where the cell divides into two daughter cells). This process is crucial for tissue growth, repair, and maintenance, including the regeneration of hair follicles.

research Local circadian clock gates cell cycle progression of transient amplifying cells during regenerative hair cycling

116 citations , May 2013 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America”

This study discovered that the circadian clock influences hair follicle regeneration, making hair grow faster in the morning and causing more radiation-induced hair loss in the morning compared to the evening.

Characterization of Cell Cycle Arrest and Terminal Differentiation in a Maximally Proliferative Human Epithelial Tissue: Lessons from the Human Hair Follicle Matrix

research Characterisation of cell cycle arrest and terminal differentiation in a maximally proliferative human epithelial tissue: Lessons from the human hair follicle matrix

30 citations , April 2017 in “European Journal of Cell Biology”

This study observed that CIP/KIP proteins play a significant role in regulating cell cycle arrest and differentiation in human hair follicles, supporting hair growth and formation in the anagen phase.

research Cell cycle controls long-range calcium signaling in the regenerating epidermis

22 citations , April 2023 in “The Journal of Cell Biology”

In this study, researchers found that coordinated intercellular Ca2+ signaling among basal stem cells in mice is crucial for cell cycle progression and tissue-wide communication during epidermal regeneration.

Hair Growth Promoting Effect of 4HGF Encapsulated with PGA Nanoparticles by β-Catenin Activation and Related Cell Cycle Molecules

research Hair Growth Promoting Effect of 4HGF Encapsulated with PGA Nanoparticles (PGA-4HGF) by β-Catenin Activation and Its Related Cell Cycle Molecules

7 citations , July 2019 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences”

This study found that PGA-4HGF nanoparticles enhanced hair growth in mice more effectively than 4HGF alone by increasing anagen phase duration and dermal papilla cell proliferation.

research Patched1 Functions as a Gatekeeper by Promoting Cell Cycle Progression

176 citations , February 2006 in “Cancer Research”

This study found that loss of Ptch1 function in mouse skin's basal cells is sufficient to rapidly induce tumors resembling human basal cell carcinoma, suggesting Ptch1 as a key tumor suppressor.

community True hair loss Vs shedding cycle

2 upvotes 7 months ago

The user stabilized hair loss with oral finasteride, dutasteride, and topical minoxidil, and underwent a stem cell and PRP procedure. Recent increased hair shedding may be due to restarting dermarolling, affecting minoxidil absorption, or the waning effects of the stem cell treatment.

community Anyone heard of HairStemCell Transplant? They claim not needing to pull the entire hair cell, allowing reuse of same donor area.

4 upvotes 8 years ago

HairStemCell Transplant claims to reuse the donor area without removing the entire hair cell, but results in finer hair that may not regrow after cycles. The technique is costly and less effective than traditional transplants for full coverage.

community Japan-led "Third Cell" Discovery: Is this the missing link for full follicle regeneration?

in Technology 132 upvotes 6 months ago

A new "third cell" discovery in Japan could be key to fully regenerating hair follicles, with human trials possibly starting in 2027-2028. AI is expected to accelerate medical discoveries, potentially leading to a hair loss cure within a few years.

community Caffeine Reverses Androgenetic Alopecia in Cell-Cultured Follicles | Bernstein Medical

4 upvotes 11 years ago

Caffeine's effectiveness in reversing hair loss is debated, with some users skeptical about caffeine-based products like Alpecin. Alternatives like Nizoral are suggested, but results vary, and some experience side effects from treatments that lower DHT.

community Why did this recent research paper from professor Tsuji lab in Japan largely go unnoticed by this sub? Isn't this discovery huge? (hair cloning)

35 upvotes 4 months ago

A recent discovery in hair cloning identified a previously unknown cell type essential for hair follicle growth, which could potentially make lab-grown hair viable if translated to humans. However, skepticism remains due to past delays and the challenges of replicating results in humans and making the process affordable.
