research Protective effect of Korean Red Ginseng against chemotherapeutic drug-induced premature catagen development assessed with human hair follicle organ culture model

19 citations , July 2015 in “Journal of Ginseng Research”

In this study, Korean Red Ginseng showed protective effects against chemotherapy-induced premature hair follicle aging in an in vitro model by modulating specific cellular protein expressions.

research Ex Vivo Organ Culture of Human Hair Follicles: A Model Epithelial–Neuroectodermal–Mesenchymal Interaction System

13 citations , October 2010 in “Methods in molecular biology”

This article discusses the development and research applications of human hair follicle organ culture techniques, highlighting its potential to explore biological processes beyond dermatology.

research Identification of human hair follicle antigens targeted in the presumptive autoimmune hair follicle disorder alopecia areata and their potential functional relevance in vitro : methods development for isolation and identification of alopecia areata-relevant human hair follicle antigens using a proteomics approach and their functional assessment using an ex vivo hair follicle organ culture model

January 2008 in “Bradford Scholars (University of Bradford)”

This study supports that an antibody response against anagen-specific hair follicle antigens, including trichohyalin and keratin 16, may play a role in alopecia areata.

research β-Catenin is involved in oleanolic acid-dependent promotion of proliferation in human hair matrix cells in an in vitro organ culture model

14 citations , July 2017 in “Fitoterapia”

In this study, oleanolic acid was found to enhance hair follicle growth and promote hair matrix cell proliferation via the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in a human hair follicle organ culture model.

research Effects of mesenchymal stem cell therapy on alopecia areata in cellular and hair follicle organ culture models

16 citations , October 2018 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This study suggests that mesenchymal stem cell therapy may improve cell viability and regulate key signaling pathways in vitro for treating alopecia areata.

community So we have 20k dollars human like machines available but no new effective treatment for hairloss since finasteride :)

in Chat 237 upvotes 1 year ago

There have been no new effective hair loss treatments since finasteride, despite technological advancements. Current treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841, with ongoing challenges and potential future solutions in research.

community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits

140 upvotes 11 months ago

Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.

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 New study: Vitamin D counteracts DHT in mice and in human hair organ culture and hair cells

126 upvotes 1 year ago

Vitamin D may counteract DHT and help with hair growth, as seen in mice and human hair cultures. Some users discuss using Vitamin D, magnesium, and other supplements for hair health, while others humorously note the success in mice.

community Riken develops new method for culturing hair follicles

41 upvotes 8 years ago

A new stem cell method for culturing hair follicles is being developed as an alternative to Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. There are concerns about its cost and accessibility despite plans for commercialization.

learn Fluocinolone

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.

learn sh-Polypeptide-7

How does sh-Polypeptide-7 help stimulate hair follicle activity or reduce scalp inflammation? sh-Polypeptide-7 is the INCI name for a lab-made form of human growth hormone (somatotropin) — not EGF, which is sh-Oligopeptide-1. Growth hormone and IGF-1 signalling is documented in hair follicle biology, but there is no published human trial of sh-Polypeptide-7 applied to the scalp for hair growth or scalp inflammation.

learn SCUBE3

How does SCUBE3 work on hair follicles compared to treatments like minoxidil or finasteride? Laboratory research in mice reports that SCUBE3, a protein released by dermal papilla cells, signals dormant follicles to grow through the TGF-β pathway downstream of Hedgehog; minoxidil and finasteride instead work on blood flow to the follicle and on DHT, and unlike SCUBE3 they have decades of human trial data behind them. SCUBE3 has not been tested in human clinical trials and is not available as a medicine.

learn Follistatin

What is follistatin, and how does it influence hair follicle growth and regeneration? Follistatin blocks activin and related growth-inhibiting proteins, which in laboratory and animal work is described as keeping hair follicles in their growth phase; the only verifiable human evidence is a single small 2011 phase 1 injection trial, so follistatin remains experimental and is not an approved hair-loss treatment.
