This study observed that activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway enhances hair follicle stem cell proliferation and differentiation, promoting hair growth and wound healing, and demonstrated the potential for outer root sheath transplants to aid skin repair, although challenges remain for clinical application.
November 2025 in “Nature Communications” This study used a 3D live imaging system to map cell dynamics in human hair follicles, revealing patterns of cell movement and division that help explain hair fiber extrusion during hair growth.
March 2024 in “Tissue and cell/Tissue & cell” This study found that in human hair bulbs, telomerase is present mainly in the nuclei of cells undergoing proliferation, particularly in the matrix epithelium during the anagen phase, and sparsely in the outer root sheath during late catagen and telogen phases.
September 2023 in “Stem cell reviews and reports” This study introduces a new method to isolate stem cells from the hair follicle outer root sheath of equine skin, demonstrating that these cells, named eMSCORS, proliferate efficiently and can differentiate similarly to adipose tissue-derived MSCs, offering a promising alternative for equine veterinary applications.

January 2020 in “Journal of Cosmetics, Dermatological Sciences and Applications” In a 3-month study, over 90% of healthy women experiencing self-perceived hair thinning reported that the nutritional supplement DEEPLY ROOTED improved their hair growth, volume, and quality, without significant adverse effects.
January 2019 in “Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies” This study observed that in Assam Hill Goats, the primary hair follicles had larger diameters and more structural associations compared to secondary follicles, especially in ruminant-age groups.
January 2016 in “Research Explorer (The University of Manchester)” Activating the Eda/Edar pathway improves wound healing by enhancing hair follicle growth.
January 2006 in “Carl von Ossiezky University of Oldenburg” This study observed that unpigmented keratinocytes saturate quickly with foreign substance uptake compared to pigmented melanocytes, where melanin significantly enhances binding.
January 2022 in “Journal of pharmacognosy and phytochemistry” This study found that a polyherbal gel made from guava leaves, amla, and aloe is effective against candidiasis on the skin, with additional benefits of nourishing hair and preventing premature graying.
July 1998 in “Dermatologic Surgery” Various techniques and tools for hair restoration were presented in 1998, including a mathematical model for donor area, use of lasers in surgery, methods for controlling grafted hair direction, and ways to increase graft yield. Satisfaction rates were around 39%, and studies showed trauma and dehydration can damage hair follicles.
November 2023 in “Journal of plant nutrition and soil science” This study observed that maize plants, including a root hairless mutant variety, did not exhibit typical root growth or compensatory foraging behavior under severe boron deficiency in soil, indicating atypical responses compared to other plants.
