June 2015 in “Nature Protocols” Two-photon microscopy helps observe hair follicle stem cell behaviors in mice.
December 2012 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” The conclusion is that the dermal papilla is crucial for hair follicle regrowth, and hair follicles undergo significant structural changes in addition to cell division during regeneration.
October 2012 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Scientists used a special imaging technique to observe that hair follicle regeneration involves cell division and structural changes, mostly in the lower part of the follicle, and that the dermal papilla at the base is crucial for regrowth.
August 2012 in “Nature Cell Biology” Hair grows when stem cell offspring in the follicle base proliferate, influenced by the dermal papilla.
