March 2018 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.
1 citations,
May 2017 in “InTech eBooks” Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
100 citations,
September 2017 in “Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology” Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
47 citations,
July 2013 in “Pharmacological Reviews” Regenerative pharmacology, which combines drugs with regenerative medicine, shows promise for repairing damaged body parts and needs more interdisciplinary research.
6 citations,
August 2020 in “Cell regeneration” Hair follicle stem cells are similar to bone marrow stem cells but are better for fat cell research.
15 citations,
January 2015 in “Stem cells international” Human hair follicle stem cells can be turned into red blood cells.
7 citations,
February 2022 in “Stem cell reviews and reports” Skin cells show flexibility in healing wounds and forming tumors, with potential for treating hair disorders and chronic ulcers.
1 citations,
February 2023 in “ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering” The new microwell device helps grow more hair stem cells that can regenerate hair.
January 2023 in “Open Life Sciences” VEGFR-2 activation is likely involved in hair follicle growth, survival, and development.
60 citations,

January 2011 in “PloS one” Notch signaling is essential for healthy skin and hair follicle maintenance.
4 citations,
March 2022 in “Pharmaceutics” Regenerative cellular therapies show promise for treating non-scarring hair loss but need more research.
