research Blank Spots in the Map of Human Skin: The Challenge for Xenotransplantation

August 2023 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences”

This review discusses the use of human-to-mouse xenografting to study human skin processes in vivo, highlighting its importance for understanding skin regeneration and pathology while identifying knowledge gaps and challenges in applying these findings to human skin.

research Interaction between stem cell factor and endothelin-1: effects on melanogenesis in human skin xenografts

27 citations , August 2006 in “Laboratory Investigation”

In this study, the combination of SCF and ET-1 was found to significantly enhance skin pigmentation and melanin content in human skin xenografts on SCID mice compared to either treatment alone.

research Skin organoids: A new human model for developmental and translational research

31 citations , January 2021 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This review discusses recent advancements in generating appendage-bearing skin organoids from pluripotent stem cells and their potential applications in dermatological research, but reports no new clinical results.

research 577 The role of YAP1 in regeneration of human skin and in pathological states

November 2022 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology”

This study found that YAP1 localization and expression patterns in human skin xenografts resembled pathological conditions, suggesting that YAP1 may be a potential target for treating skin pathologies.

research Hair Follicle Regeneration Using Grafted Rodent and Human Cells

96 citations , April 2007 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

In this study, co-grafting human keratinocytes with murine dermal papilla-enriched cells produced hair follicle-like structures, but without regular hair formation, suggesting anomalous folliculogenesis.

community Hair and normal skin created from human pluripotent stem cells for the first time

86 upvotes 6 years ago

Human pluripotent stem cells have been used to create hair and skin, potentially offering a new solution for baldness. A user also mentioned starting finasteride but experiencing unexpected hair thinning.

community Is it possible to transplant mice skin into human body?

in Transplants 47 upvotes 10 months ago

Transplanting mice skin to humans is not feasible due to immune rejection, but some suggest genetic modification or immune suppression could make it possible. Xenograft hair transplants are discouraged.

community Functional hair follicles grown from stem cells: Scientists have created natural-looking hair that grows through the skin using human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), a major scientific achievement that could revolutionize the hair growth industry.

171 upvotes 7 years ago

Scientists have grown natural-looking hair from stem cells, potentially revolutionizing hair growth treatments. Concerns include cost, DHT resistance, and the need for future procedures.

community Topical Metformin for Hair Transplant donor area skin/hair regeneration?

4 upvotes 1 year ago

Topical Metformin shows potential for regenerating hair follicles and minimizing scarring in hair transplant donor areas, similar to Verteporfin but without its side effects. The discussion suggests considering Metformin for post-hair transplant care, though more human trials are needed.

community New study suggests hair regrowth on wounded and bald skin may be possible

4 upvotes 7 years ago

Hair regrowth on wounded and bald skin may be possible by activating the sonic hedgehog gene, leading to hair regrowth in mice. The findings are promising but may not directly apply to humans.

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.
Is Fluocinolone a treatment for hair loss itself or just for calming scalp irritation? Fluocinolone acetonide is a prescription corticosteroid approved for inflammatory skin conditions, not for hair loss; no published human trial has measured hair regrowth with it, so at most it may help indirectly by calming an inflamed scalp.

learn GHK-Cu

What is GHK-Cu and why is it said to be a "miracle" for hair? GHK-Cu is a copper peptide studied mainly for wound healing and skin repair; for hair loss the evidence stops at cell-culture and animal work, and no published human trial has tested it for androgenetic alopecia.

learn Peppermint

herb and oil thought to stimulate skin and hair

learn Latanoprost

Can latanoprost be safely applied to the scalp, or is it only for eyelashes? Latanoprost is not approved for use on the scalp and its safety there has not been established: the only human scalp evidence is one 24-week pilot trial in 16 men, and clinicians flag irritation, skin darkening and unknown absorption over a large area as open risks.
