research The calcium-binding protein calretinin is a marker of the companion cell layer of the human hair follicle

26 citations , June 2005 in “British Journal of Dermatology”

Calretinin identifies the companion cell layer in human hair follicles.

research Krt6a-Cre Transgenic Mice Direct LoxP-Mediated Recombination to the Companion Cell Layer of the Hair Follicle and Following Induction by Retinoic Acid to the Interfollicular Epidermis

10 citations , January 2004 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

Krt6a-Cre transgenic mice help study gene effects on hair follicle development and tumor suppression.

research Comparison of CD146 +/− mesenchymal stem cells in improving premature ovarian failure

31 citations , June 2022 in “Stem Cell Research & Therapy”

This study found that umbilical cord-derived CD146+ MSCs showed a stronger ability to improve ovarian function and modulate immune responses in a mouse model of premature ovarian failure compared to CD146- MSCs, though both subpopulations effectively repaired reproductive ability.

Comparison Treatment of Vitiligo by Co-Culture of Melanocytes Derived from Hair Follicle with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells with and without Narrowband UVB

research Comparison Treatment of Vitiligo by Co-culture of Melanocytes Derived from Hair Follicle with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells with and without NB-UVB

January 2020

This study found that co-culturing adipose-derived stem cells with hair follicle-derived melanocytes, combined with narrowband UVB, significantly improved pigmentary response in treating stable, resistant vitiligo compared to non-UVB treatments.

research The Comparison of In Vitro Photosensitizing Efficacy of Curcumin-Loaded Liposomes Following Photodynamic Therapy on Melanoma MUG-Mel2, Squamous Cell Carcinoma SCC-25, and Normal Keratinocyte HaCaT Cells

48 citations , April 2021 in “Pharmaceuticals”

This study found that curcumin encapsulated in liposomes enhanced photodynamic therapy's effectiveness against skin cancer cells while reducing toxicity to normal human keratinocytes.

community Stem-cell hair transplants! 20k lab grown grafts from one single graft

50 upvotes 2 years ago

Stem-cell hair transplants could potentially create thousands of grafts from a single donor graft, offering a solution for hair loss with DHT-resistant hair. Companies like Stemson Therapeutics and OrganTech are working on this technology, which may become available in the future, possibly reducing the cost and making it widely accessible.

community PP405 - hair stem cell stimulation

51 upvotes 2 years ago

PP405, a topical LDH inhibitor, has shown to stimulate hair follicle stem cell proliferation in humans with moderate hair loss. They are advancing to more detailed trials this year.

community Cell senescence-targeted treatment for hair loss, has anyone tried any products/enzymes etc. that use this theory

5 upvotes 1 year ago

DHT causes hair loss by driving cells into senescence, and a polyphenol in black chokeberry may reverse this. A product using this theory is being considered for use alongside finasteride, minoxidil, and microneedling.

community HairClone developing cell replacement treatments for Hair Loss

5 upvotes 7 years ago

HairClone is developing cell replacement treatments to rejuvenate and generate hair follicles, and has launched a crowdfunding campaign. A user expressed skepticism about the need for crowdfunding.

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.
