research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
This study reports that some patients with androgenetic alopecia may also exhibit clinical and histological features of inflammation and fibrosis, similar to those found in lichen planopilaris.

research Tracing immune cells around biomaterials with spatial anchors during large-scale wound regeneration
In this animal study, the researchers found that biodegradable extracellular matrix scaffolds accelerated wound healing and enhanced hair follicle neogenesis in mice, suggesting a role for immune systems in tissue regeneration.
research The topography of fibrous scaffolds modulates the paracrine function of Ad-MSCs in the regeneration of skin tissues
This study demonstrated that a bio-3D printed artificial skin scaffold, seeded with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells, showed promising wound healing properties by enhancing cell recruitment, migration, and gene expression related to tissue regeneration.
research A Fibrous Hybrid Patch Couples Cell-Derived Matrix and Poly(l-lactide-co-caprolactone) for Endothelial Cells Delivery and Skin Wound Repair
This research found that a biodegradable fibrous membrane incorporating fibroblast-derived ECM accelerated wound healing and improved neovascularization in a mouse model.
research Evaluation of hair follicles as a surrogate tissue for pharmacodynamics response in xenograft tumors
This research suggests that plucked hair follicles may serve as a reliable surrogate tissue for tumor biopsies in drug development, based on a mouse model linking hair and tumor pharmacodynamic responses.

Hair follicles are mostly dormant but can be reactivated with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and microneedling. A new drug, PP405, shows promise for hair regrowth but may not be available until 2027-2028.
community How a follicle next to it is so genetically different that it never miniaturized??
Genetic differences in hair follicles affect hair loss patterns. Treatments discussed include finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841.
community PP405 Won’t Work: Follicle Is Miniaturized, Fibrosed, And Missing Key Support Cells
PP405 is ineffective for miniaturized, fibrosed hair follicles in androgenetic alopecia. AMP303 may activate hair follicle stem cells, but minoxidil and finasteride are still the main treatments.
community Is DHT actually the cause of male pattern hair loss or just a correlating factor? Why I think the research is more complicated than we're told and why I've been looking into GHK-Cu
DHT is not the only cause of male pattern hair loss; genetic sensitivity, inflammation, and fibrosis also contribute. GHK-Cu, a copper peptide, is being explored as an alternative treatment to finasteride and minoxidil, showing potential in improving follicle health.
community Sugar and Hair loss connections
High sugar diets may worsen hair loss by increasing 5α-reductase activity and androgen levels, especially in women with PCOS. A low sugar diet might reduce scalp DHT levels, similar to finasteride, but genetics also significantly influence hair loss.
