January 2019 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study suggests that damaged anagen hair follicles have the capability to repair themselves and resume growth by mobilizing extra-bulge epithelial cells, particularly after injuries like chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

,
August 2012 in “Cell Stem Cell” This study used two-photon microscopy to reveal that the dermal papilla is crucial for hair follicle regeneration and cannot be replaced by neighboring cells, providing new insights into stem cell behavior.

March 2013 in “Development” This study found that Hopx labels a long-lived progenitor population in hair follicles, which contributes to hair follicle stem cell homeostasis and has an alternative origin from previously thought progenitors.
November 2022 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicles, identifying compartment-specific gene expression profiles that can aid in developing targeted therapies for hair follicle disorders.
