Glossary Hair Follicle Bulge Stem Cells

specialized cells that regenerate hair and repair skin

Hair Follicle Bulge Stem Cells are specialized cells located in a specific region of the hair follicle known as the "bulge." These cells have the unique ability to regenerate and produce new hair, as well as repair damaged skin. They play a crucial role in the hair growth cycle and are a key focus in research on hair loss treatments and skin regeneration therapies.

research Autofluorescence in the Stem Cell Region of the Hair Follicle Bulge

17 citations , March 2005 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This study found that human hair follicle bulge stem cells exhibited autofluorescence, potentially due to high flavin- and NAD-related compound levels, highlighting the need to consider this when using fluorescent antibodies for studying these cells.

research Keratinocytes-hair follicle bulge stem cells-fibroblasts co-cultures on a tri-layer skin equivalent derived from gelatin/PEG methacrylate nanofibers

11 citations , February 2020 in “Journal of Biomaterials Science Polymer Edition”

This study explored the development of GelMet, an electrospun hybrid nanofiber scaffold made from gelatin and PEG methacrylate, which demonstrated strong mechanical properties and effectively supported cell growth in vitro, suggesting its potential for skin tissue engineering applications.

research Dicer- and Bulge Stem Cell-Dependent MicroRNAs During Induced Anagen Hair Follicle Development

10 citations , May 2020 in “Frontiers in cell and developmental biology”

In this study, researchers found that Dicer, but not Tarbp2, plays a crucial role in regulating the growth phase of hair follicles in post-natal mice.

research Isolation of Mouse Hair Follicle Bulge Stem Cells and Their Functional Analysis in a Reconstitution Assay

7 citations , January 2016 in “Methods in molecular biology”

This study describes the process of isolating and analyzing multipotent stem cells from mouse hair follicles for potential use in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

research The Developmental & Molecular Requirements for Ensuring that Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Hair Follicle Bulge Stem Cells Have Acquired Competence for Hair Follicle Generation Following Transplantation

4 citations , January 2021 in “Cell transplantation”

This study found that human induced pluripotent stem cells differentiated precisely to express certain markers during a specific window could enable successful hair follicle generation when transplanted.

community Fully functional hair follicle regeneration through the rearrangement of stem cells and their niches

4 upvotes 11 years ago

Hair follicle regeneration through stem cell rearrangement is discussed, focusing on bioengineered cellular structures rather than traditional hair transplants. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community UVA researchers discovered stem cells that plays a crucial role in hair growth - We are closer than ever to the cure!

281 upvotes 1 year ago

Researchers at the University of Virginia discovered a new group of stem cells in hair follicles that could potentially restore hair growth. The findings suggest that activating these stem cells might offer a new way to combat hair loss, though practical treatments are still years away.

community Best Microneedle Lengths To Stimulate Stem Cells

18 upvotes 2 years ago

Microneedling with needle lengths of 1.5mm to 2.5mm to stimulate hair follicle stem cells for potential hair growth. Using needles longer than 2.5mm is not recommended due to risk of puncturing veins in the scalp. A dermastamp is suggested over a roller.

community PP405 Won’t Work: Follicle Is Miniaturized, Fibrosed, And Missing Key Support Cells

7 months ago

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 Microneedling must reach the stem cells in the upper hair shaft

82 upvotes 4 years ago

Microneedling should target depths of 0.5mm to 1.5mm for hair loss, with weekly sessions at 1mm recommended. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil is common for improved results.

Can long-term use of Fluocinolone affect the health of hair follicles? There is no long-term human trial measuring what topical fluocinolone does to hair follicles; what is documented is the label's warning about skin atrophy with prolonged use, plus a 2007 mouse study suggesting hair-follicle bulge stem cells do not repair steroid-induced atrophy.
