Exosomes from human skin cells can stimulate hair growth and could potentially be used for treating hair loss.
research Electrolysis and Thermolysis for Permanent Hair Removal
The document concludes that electrolysis and thermolysis can permanently remove hair but calls for better regulation to ensure safety, and notes a possibility of hair regrowth and rare complications.
research Choreographing Immunity in the Skin Epithelial Barrier
The document concludes that the skin's immune system is complex, involving interactions with hair follicles, nerves, and microbes, and can protect or cause disease, offering targets for new treatments.
research Extracellular Matrix as a Regulator of Epidermal Stem Cell Fate
The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.
research Cyclosporin A-Induced Hair Growth in Mice Is Associated with Inhibition of Calcineurin-Dependent Activation of NFAT in Follicular Keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Murine Skin as a Target for Melatonin Bioregulation
Melatonin affects mouse skin and may regulate skin functions.
research Intravital Imaging of Hair Follicle Regeneration in the Mouse
Two-photon microscopy helps observe hair follicle stem cell behaviors in mice.
research Hair Growth-Promoting Activity of Hot Water Extract of Thuja Orientalis
Thuja orientalis hot water extract may help hair grow by starting the growth phase and improving hair follicle development.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme During the Hair Growth Cycle: Implications for Growth Control and Hair Follicle Transformations
Disruptions in hair follicle fibroblast dynamics can cause hair growth problems.
research Hair Disorders in Patients with Cancer
Cancer treatments often cause hair disorders, significantly affecting patients' quality of life, and better management methods are needed.
research Exogenous IGF-1 Promotes Hair Growth by Stimulating Cell Proliferation and Downregulating TGF-β1 in C57BL/6 Mice In Vivo
IGF-1 injections help mice grow more hair by increasing cell growth and blocking a hair growth inhibitor.
research The Functional Diversity of Epidermal Keratins Revealed by the Partial Rescue of the Keratin 14 Null Phenotype by Keratin 16
K16 can partially replace K14 but causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Female Hirsutism: Pathophysiological Considerations and Therapeutic Implications
Excessive hair growth in women often has no known cause and is not linked to race or other hormonal symptoms.
research Post-Transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation, and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Brg1 Governs a Positive Feedback Circuit in the Hair Follicle for Tissue Regeneration and Repair
Brg1 is crucial for hair growth and skin repair by maintaining stem cells and promoting regeneration.
research Mutant Laboratory Mice With Abnormalities in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis, Cycling, and Structure: An Update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
