research Compartmentalized organization: a common and required feature of stem cell niches?

63 citations , April 2010 in “Development”

This article discusses the bi-compartmental organization of hair follicle stem cell niches for balancing stem cell cycling and organ growth and proposes similar structures may exist in other adult stem cell niches but reports no new experimental results.

research Stem Cell Competition for Niche Occupancy: Emerging Themes and Mechanisms

13 citations , February 2010 in “Stem Cell Reviews and Reports”

Stem cells compete for space using cell adhesion, and mutations can affect their competitive success, with implications for tissue health and disease.

research The stem cell quiescence and niche signaling is disturbed in the hair follicle of the hairpoor mouse, an MUHH model mouse

2 citations , May 2022 in “Stem cell research & therapy”

This study found that hair follicle stem cells in the hairpoor mouse, a model for Marie-Unna hypotrichosis, lose their quiescent state, leading to a disordered hair cycle and contributing to alopecia.

research A notch above bowl: Specification of niche cells in the Drosophila testis

1 citations , January 2011 in “ScholarlyCommons (University of Pennsylvania)”

In this study, researchers investigating the Drosophila testis niche system reported that Notch signaling is crucial for niche cell specification, with early gonadogenesis showing signals coming from outside the gonad to direct cell fate.

Aged Differentiated Cells Reverse Into Native Stemness-Like State By Niche Cytokines To Sustain Lifelong Homeostasis And Tissue Repair

research Aged differentiated cells reverse into native stemness-like state by niche cytokines to sustain lifelong homeostasis and tissue repair

April 2026 in “Nature Communications”

This study found that dedifferentiated corneal epithelial cells can revert to a stem-cell-like state, aiding tissue homeostasis and repair, with this plasticity limited to the epithelial lineage and enhanced by niche-derived cytokines.

community Fully functional hair follicle regeneration through the rearrangement of stem cells and their niches

4 upvotes 11 years ago

Hair follicle regeneration through stem cell rearrangement is discussed, focusing on bioengineered cellular structures rather than traditional hair transplants. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community Nice product I discovered, thought I would share.

in Treatment 456 upvotes 1 year ago

A product that makes hair look thicker and healthier without promoting regrowth. Discussions include treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, red light therapy, and a serum with caffeine and peptides, with mixed effectiveness opinions.

community Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy (Exosome) Before & After

2 upvotes 2 years ago

A user's father experienced hair regrowth and other health improvements after two IV exosome treatments. The user also had four rounds of exosome therapy, noting significant hair regrowth and relief from headaches, but no change in gray hair.

community "Hair Follicle Stem Cells are quiescent 99% of the time and permanently reside in the hair follicle"

in Research/Science 1391 upvotes 1 year ago

Hair follicles are mostly dormant but can be reactivated with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and microneedling. A new drug, PP405, shows promise for hair regrowth but may not be available until 2027-2028.

community UVA researchers discovered stem cells that plays a crucial role in hair growth - We are closer than ever to the cure!

281 upvotes 1 year ago

Researchers at the University of Virginia discovered a new group of stem cells in hair follicles that could potentially restore hair growth. The findings suggest that activating these stem cells might offer a new way to combat hair loss, though practical treatments are still years away.
