May 2017 in “InTech eBooks” Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

74 citations,
January 2013 in “Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy” The conclusion is that hair growth can be improved by activating hair cycles, changing the surrounding environment, healing wounds to create new hair follicles, and using stem cell technology.
30 citations,
March 2017 in “ACS biomaterials science & engineering” Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.
1 citations,
August 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” Certain cells in the adult mouse ear come from cranial neural crest cells, but muscle and hair cells do not.
66 citations,
March 2018 in “British journal of dermatology/British journal of dermatology, Supplement” An imbalance between certain immune cells is linked to a chronic skin condition and may be influenced by obesity, smoking, and autoimmune issues.

1 citations,
January 2023 in “Burns and trauma” Tiny particles from 3D-grown skin cells speed up wound healing by promoting blood vessel growth.
262 citations,
May 2017 in “Nanomedicine” New nanofiber technology improves wound healing by supporting cell growth and delivering treatments directly to the wound.
19 citations,
April 2015 in “Developmental Dynamics” The conclusion is that skin and hair patterns are formed by a mix of cell activities, molecular signals, and environmental factors.
3 citations,
December 2022 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” The research reveals how early embryonic mouse skin develops from simple to complex structures, identifying various cell types and their roles in this process.
21 citations,
November 2022 in “Frontiers in immunology” Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
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.
