May 2023 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology” The document concludes that using stem cells to regenerate hair follicles could be a promising treatment for hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome before it can be used clinically.
May 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Blocking DPP4 can potentially speed up hair growth and regeneration, especially after injury or in cases of hair loss.
May 2023 in “Frontiers in Immunology” Treg cell-based therapies might help treat hair loss from alopecia areata, but more research is needed to confirm safety and effectiveness.
January 2023 in “Theranostics” Mechanical force is important for the first contact between skin cells and hair growth in mini-organs.
January 2023 in “Journal of surgery and research” New treatment effectively reverses hair thinning in most patients with mild side effects.
October 2022 in “BMC genomics” RNA editing significantly affects hair growth and follicle cycling in the Tianzhu white yak.
October 2022 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology” Aging skin is affected by inflammation, reduced stem cell function, and slower wound healing.
January 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings” 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.
Stem cell treatments show promise for hair loss but need more research.
February 2023 in “Frontiers in Pharmacology” Water extract of Cacumen Platycladi helps hair growth by activating specific cell pathways.
