April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that the CD301b-expressing subpopulation of macrophages plays a crucial role in promoting reparative processes during the mid-stage of skin wound healing in a mouse model.
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that full thickness wounds in Lanyu pigs led to altered molecular expression and abnormal skin structure, without regenerating key epithelial cells thought to aid in skin regeneration.
January 2016 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” This study observed that in a mouse wound model, honey significantly accelerated wound healing when compared to povidone-iodine treatment, suggesting its potential regenerative benefits.
January 2016 in “Minerva Access (University of Melbourne)” This dissertation found that hair follicle transplantation promoted wound healing in mice by enhancing wound re-epithelialization and increasing nerve density in the granulation tissue.
September 2013 in “Regenerative Medicine” This summary reports that γδ T cells play a role in regulating hair follicle formation during wound healing in adult skin.
This historical review discusses the ancient Egyptians' advanced wound-healing techniques, including the use of honey and moldy bread, and reports no new clinical results.
January 2011 in “Padua Research Archive (University of Padua)” This study suggests that human skin locally synthesizes active sex steroid hormones, impacting inflammation, cell behavior, and wound healing, with potential implications for therapies in aging and impaired wound recovery.
January 2009 in “Junshi Yixue Kexueyuan yuankan” This study found that implanting hair follicle dermal sheath cells in rat skin wounds significantly accelerated wound contraction and healing compared to controls.
November 2008 in “Medical & surgical dermatology” This study reports that a prototype device may accurately measure changes in hair quantity, diameter, and density in patients with balding by assessing the cross-sectional area of hair bundles.
June 2008 in “Wound Repair and Regeneration” In this study, Msx-2 knockout mice showed enhanced re-epithelialization and faster wound closure compared to wild-type controls, suggesting Msx-2 may influence skin morphogenesis during wound repair.
June 2008 in “Dermatologic Surgery” This review discusses the effects of hydrogen peroxide in hair restoration surgery and other medical specialties, finding both potential benefits and risks, but reports no conclusive data for its optimal use in hair transplants.
April 2008 in “Medical & surgical dermatology” Certain hairstyles can cause scalp diseases, smoking is linked to hair loss, 5% minoxidil foam is effective for hair loss treatment, and various factors influence wound healing and hair growth.
January 2007 in “The Year book of surgery” Mast cells and VEGF contribute to post-surgery adhesions, and blocking VEGF can reduce these adhesions; also, certain factors affect wound healing and fetal skin heals differently with age.
June 2006 in “Experimental dermatology” This study found that, while hair follicle bulge stem cells are important for hair follicle survival and epidermal regeneration after wounding, the epidermis maintains itself independently of these cells under normal conditions.
January 2006 in “Zhongguo linchuang jiepouxue zazhi” This study found that applying a low intensive pulse magnetic field significantly accelerated wound healing in rats by promoting the proliferation and differentiation of skin epidermal stem cells.
