February 2023 in “Heliyon” This study reports that a heparin-based sericin hydrogel encapsulating basic fibroblast growth factor significantly accelerated wound healing in mice by enhancing vascularization, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition.
7 citations
,
March 2022 in “The FASEB journal” This study observed that mice with a whole-body deficiency of Cystathionine-β-synthase developed severe hyperhomocysteinemia and related mild symptoms without increased mortality, indicating HHCy may not directly cause end organ damage.
September 2025 in “Digital Commons - RU (Rockefeller University)” This study found that when NFIB was removed in adult mouse hair follicle stem cells, it did not affect their maintenance but unexpectedly led to increased proliferation and differentiation of nearby melanocyte stem cells.
January 2024 in “Journal of Material Cycles and Waste Management” Adding human hair to cement can make it tougher and better insulated but also more porous.
1 citations
,
December 2004 in “Hepatology” This study found that in lamivudine-resistant hepatitis B patients, tenofovir significantly reduced HBV DNA levels faster and more consistently than adefovir, reaching undetectable levels in all treated patients by 44 weeks.

,
March 2025 in “Industrial Crops and Products” This study found that peach kernel oil extracted via supercritical fluid extraction had higher quality and antioxidant properties than oil obtained by other methods, effectively protecting human hair follicle keratinocytes from oxidative damage.
September 2021 in “Yearbook of pediatric endocrinology” This study found that in mice, chronic stress elevates corticosterone levels, which suppresses hair growth by keeping hair follicles in a prolonged resting phase.
August 2015 in “Dermatología Argentina” This study reviewed 18 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting frontotemporal hairline recession and eyebrow loss, often treated with steroids, triamcinolone, and other medications.
November 2022 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This meta-analysis suggests a significant association between the use of facial sunscreen and moisturizer and frontal fibrosing alopecia, while finding no significant relationship with hair products or treatments.

,
December 2018 in “Nature Communications” This study demonstrated that enhancing human skin constructs with hair follicles through engineered cell organization and vascularization improved hair growth in immunodeficient mice, suggesting potential advances for treating alopecia and chronic wounds.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this study, researchers found that stabilizing the protein HIF1A in hair follicles promotes glycolysis over oxidative phosphorylation, potentially reducing oxidative stress and supporting hair growth.
3 citations
,
March 2016 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study found that a hypomorphic mutation in the Hr gene contributes to the development of diet-induced pruritic atopic skin in mice, particularly when combined with dietary deficiencies of polyunsaturated fatty acids and starch.
