June 2022 in “Developmental cell” Overactivating Hedgehog signaling makes hair follicle cells in mice grow hair faster and create more follicles.
March 2022 in “Molecules” The study demonstrates that adenosine promotes hair growth in cultured human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs) by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway through cAMP-mediated modulation of GSK3β activity. This activation enhances cell viability, mitochondrial function, and the expression of growth factors like bFGF, FGF7, and IGF-1, which are crucial for hair follicle growth. The effects are mediated through adenosine A2A and A2B receptors, suggesting that adenosine could be a potential therapeutic agent for treating hair loss.
