July 2016 in “Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A” This study found that a novel hydrogel scaffold, cGEL, significantly increased melanin production and melanotic gene expression in human melanocytes compared to other graft materials, suggesting its potential as a superior carrier for skin grafting.
January 1997 in “The Showa University Journal of Medical Sciences” This study found that dihydrotestosterone significantly reduced the growth rate of perifollicular sheath cells but had no effect on nonfollicular fibroblasts or dermal papilla cells.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that anagen hair follicles can quickly regenerate after radiation damage by forming new progenitor cells outside the bulge, bypassing the need for telogen entry.
60 citations
,
May 2014 in “British Journal of Dermatology” This study found that caffeine enhanced hair growth and keratinocyte proliferation in human hair follicles, with female follicles showing greater sensitivity than male ones.

7 citations
,
January 2001 in “Comprehensive series in photosciences” This study found that UV stabilizers must diffuse uniformly and in high uptake levels throughout hair fibers during humidification cycles to effectively prevent photo-oxidative degradation.
2 citations
,
January 1975 in “Archives of Dermatological Research” Certain enzymes react strongly with some hormones in rat skin during hair growth, mainly in sebaceous glands and hair sheaths.
April 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that edelweiss extract may promote hair growth and reduce shedding in ex vivo experiments by affecting hair follicle anagen phase duration and keratinocyte proliferation.
