Dermal adipose tissue in mice can change and revert to help with skin health.
research Dermal Fibroblasts in Cutaneous Development and Healing
Skin cells called dermal fibroblasts are important for skin growth, hair growth, and wound healing.
research The Structure and Organization of Lanceolate Mechanosensory Complexes at Mouse Hair Follicles
Lanceolate complexes in mouse hair follicles are essential for touch and depend on specific cells for maintenance and regeneration.
research Gene Therapy to Enhance Angiogenesis in Chronic Wounds
Gene therapy shows promise for healing chronic wounds but needs more research to overcome challenges.
research Hedgehog Signaling Reprograms Hair Follicle Niche Fibroblasts to a Hyper-Activated State

research Ex Vivo SIM-AFM Measurements Reveal the Spatial Correlation of Stiffness and Molecular Distributions in 3D Living Tissue
Collagen makes skin stiff, and preservation methods greatly increase tissue stiffness.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
