Glossary Follicular Keratinocytes

specialized cells in hair follicles producing keratin for hair

Follicular keratinocytes are specialized cells found in hair follicles, the structures in the skin that produce hair. These cells are responsible for producing keratin, a protein that forms the structural foundation of hair. They play a crucial role in the growth and health of hair by continuously dividing and differentiating to form the hair shaft.

research Restoration of hair-inductive activity of cultured human follicular keratinocytes by co-culturing with dermal papilla cells

14 citations , September 2018 in “Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications”

This study suggests that co-culturing human outer root sheath cells with human dermal papilla cells can restore their ability to induce hair growth by altering gene expression through paracrine signaling.

Exosomes Derived From Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells Promote Hair Regrowth in Alopecia Areata

research Exosomes derived from uMSCs promote hair regrowth in alopecia areata through accelerating human hair follicular keratinocyte proliferation and migration

November 2023 in “Cell Biology International”

This study investigated the effects of exosomes from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells on hair loss in mice with alopecia areata, emphasizing the potential of these easily isolated and stored exosomes for research and clinical treatment.

Conditioned Media Obtained from Human Outer Root Sheath Follicular Keratinocyte Culture Activates Signalling Pathways That Contribute to Maintenance of Hair-Inducing Capacity and Increases Trichogenicity of Cultured Dermal Cells

research Conditioned media obtained from human outer root sheath follicular keratinocyte culture activates signalling pathways that contribute to maintenance of hair-inducing capacity and increases trichogenicity of cultured dermal cells

6 citations , July 2012 in “Experimental Dermatology”

In this study, treatment with human follicular keratinocyte-conditioned media improved the trichogenicity of cultured dermal cells by activating key signalling pathways, suggesting its potential use in cell therapy for hair loss.

Cyclosporin A-Induced Hair Growth in Mice Is Associated with Inhibition of Calcineurin-Dependent Activation of NFAT in Follicular Keratinocytes

research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes

57 citations , June 2003 in “American Journal of Physiology-cell Physiology”

This study found that cyclosporin A treatment enhances hair growth in mice by inhibiting calcineurin-NFAT1 activity, which alters keratinocyte differentiation and apoptosis-related gene expression in hair follicles.

Hair Growth Induction by the Tellurium Immunomodulator AS101: Association with Delayed Terminal Differentiation of Follicular Keratinocytes and Ras-Dependent Up-Regulation of KGF Expression

research Hair growth induction by the tellurium immunomodulator AS101: association with delayed terminal differentiation of follicular keratinocytes and ras‐dependent up‐regulation of KGF expression

51 citations , December 2003 in “The FASEB Journal”

This study reports that AS101 induced hair growth in mice and suggests potential for treating chemotherapy-induced alopecia in humans, which was observed in case report studies with three adolescents.

community Weed/THC effects on hair growth/hair loss, and vitality of organ-culture human follicle studies (research review)

4 upvotes 1 year ago

Cannabis and THC may have mixed effects on hair, with some studies suggesting potential negative impacts on hair growth in isolated hair follicles, but these results are hard to apply to living humans. Treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used for hair loss, and the effects of cannabis might be neutral or vary based on individual factors.

community Someone please offer reassurance

in Minoxidil 3 upvotes 1 month ago

A 19-year-old male is experiencing hair shedding while using oral minoxidil, ketoconazole, dermastamping, and saw palmetto, and is considering switching to finasteride for better results. Users suggest that saw palmetto may not be effective and recommend finasteride instead, while also discussing other treatments like rosemary oil, peppermint oil, and pumpkin seed oil.

Hair transplantation moves DHT-resistant follicles from a donor area (back and sides of the scalp) into thinning or bald areas. The transplanted hair is generally permanent, though surrounding native hair can keep thinning.

What is Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) in hair transplants? Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a minimally invasive hair transplant method that extracts individual hair follicles.
What is Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) in hair transplants? Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) involves removing a scalp strip for hair restoration.
