January 2003 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this study, a synthetic antagonist of the p75 neurotrophin receptor was found to significantly inhibit hair follicle regression in murine skin cultures, suggesting a potential role in treating hair disorders characterized by premature catagen entry.

October 2019 in “PubMed” This study successfully created a mouse model with conditional knockout of the p75 neurotrophin receptor gene in epidermis cells, with no significant changes in skin histomorphology observed.
August 2006 in “Experimental dermatology” This study found that nerve growth factor signaling in organ-cultured human hair follicles inhibits hair growth by inducing apoptosis-driven hair follicle regression.

January 2017 in “Molecular Medicine Reports” This study found that nestin-negative hair follicle stem cells can differentiate into neural stem cell-like cells, but not mature neurons, through a multi-step neuro-induction process.
