March 2014 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” The document lists various dermatology topics, treatments, and diagnostic methods.
January 2014 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.

June 2018 in “Advances in Cosmetic Surgery” Hair loss caused by genetics and hormones; more research needed for treatments.
September 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Finasteride helps female-pattern hair loss.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Higher leptin levels link to hair loss.
Integrin alphavbeta6 is important for wound healing and hair growth, and blocking it may improve these processes.

February 2002 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” Understanding hair follicle development can help treat hair loss, skin regeneration, and certain skin cancers.
96 citations,
March 2007 in “Developmental biology” The study found that the protein Dkk4 helps regulate hair growth by controlling Wnt signaling in mice.
44 citations,
July 2016 in “Stem Cells Translational Medicine” Scientists discovered that certain stem cells from mice and humans can be used to grow new hair follicles and skin glands when treated with a special mixture.
42 citations,
July 2017 in “Molecular therapy” A form of vitamin E promotes hair growth by activating a specific skin pathway.
36 citations,
October 2015 in “Cell reports” Gab1 protein is crucial for hair growth and stem cell renewal, and Mapk signaling helps maintain these processes.
36 citations,
April 2010 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” Canine hair follicles have stem cells similar to human hair follicles, useful for studying hair disorders.
18 citations,

August 2018 in “Stem cell research” Hair samples can be used to create stem cells easily and non-invasively.
March 2024 in “Journal of biobased materials and bioenergy” Tea tree oil may help treat scalp alopecia by promoting hair follicle stem cell growth.
January 2024 in “Journal of developmental biology” Abdominal skin heals faster than dorsal skin because it has more stem cells.
