June 2013 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” FGF9 from certain cells can trigger new hair growth during wound healing, but humans have fewer of these cells, which may limit hair regrowth.
October 2012 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Scientists used a special imaging technique to observe that hair follicle regeneration involves cell division and structural changes, mostly in the lower part of the follicle, and that the dermal papilla at the base is crucial for regrowth.
June 2007 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Hair can regrow in adult mice's skin after injury, and this regrowth doesn't come from existing hair cells but from skin cells in the wound, with Wnt7a protein helping this process. This could help treat baldness and scarring.
