June 2026 in “Korean Journal of Food Science and Technology” In this study, a 10% fermented Glycine max compound was found to promote faster hair growth and follicle formation in mice compared to 3% minoxidil, suggesting potential as a hair health supplement.
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) may play a role in hair follicle neogenesis and that an HGF mimetic could enhance skin substitute development.
April 2016 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study suggests that infiltrating M2 macrophages promote wound-induced hair neogenesis in mice by producing growth factors that activate the wnt signaling pathway during the late phase of wound healing.
