14 citations,
February 2014 in “Experimental Cell Research” The conclusion is that teeth, hair, and claws have similar stem cell niches, which are important for growth and repair, and more research is needed on their regulation and potential markers.
14 citations,
April 2000 in “Animal Science/Animal science” Nutrients like vitamins, copper, zinc, and amino acids are crucial for healthy hair and wool growth.
1 citations,
May 2017 in “InTech eBooks” Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
28 citations,
August 2018 in “Dermatologic Surgery” Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) may help improve hair density in primary cicatricial alopecias (PCAs) patients, but more trials are needed to confirm its benefits.
Combining microneedling with platelet-rich plasma enhances skin repair and collagen production but may not offer significant extra benefits.
August 2023 in “International journal of medical science and clinical research studies” PRP therapy helps heal pediatric surgical wounds faster and with fewer scars but needs more research for safety and cost.
76 citations,
December 2018 in “Aesthetic Plastic Surgery” Platelet-rich plasma may help in skin and hair treatments, and with muscle and joint healing, but more research is needed to fully understand its benefits and limitations.
15 citations,
October 2020 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings” Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) could potentially help regrow hair in people with Alopecia Areata, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
