research Do Hair Bulb Melanocytes Undergo Apoptosis During Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen)?
Hair follicle melanocytes die during hair regression.
research Synthesized Ceramide Induces Growth of Dermal Papilla Cells with Potential Contribution to Hair Growth
Synthetic ceramides may help hair growth by boosting cell growth in hair follicles.
research Microscopical Characterization of Known Postmortem Root Bands Using Light and Scanning Electron Microscopy
The research found that postmortem root bands in hair are likely caused by the breakdown of a specific part of the hair's inner structure after death.
research Resident Stem Cells in Skin
Skin stem cells can help improve skin repair and regeneration.
research Environment of the Anagen Follicle
The document concludes that hair follicles have a complex environment and our understanding of it is growing, but there are limitations when applying animal study findings to humans.
