research Novel and Established Potassium Channel Openers Stimulate Hair Growth In Vitro: Implications for Their Modes of Action in Hair Follicles
Potassium channel openers like minoxidil help hair grow by acting on hair follicles.
research The Experimental Study on the Effect of Herbal Extracts on Hair Growth and Acne
Rubus coreanum may help hair growth but not through the tested mechanisms, and none of the herbal extracts help with acne.
research Bioengineering of Hair Follicle-Like Structure for Validation of Hair Growth Promoting Compounds
The method can test hair growth products using a lab-made hair-like structure that responds to known treatments.
research A Bald Statement: Current Approaches to Manipulate Miniaturization Focus Only on Promoting Hair Growth
The conclusion is that future hair loss treatments should target the root causes of hair thinning, not just promote hair growth.
research Targeting Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway for Developing Therapies for Hair Loss
Activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Therapeutic Strategies for Treating Hair Loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Macrophage-Stimulating Protein Promotes Hair Growth Ex Vivo and Induces Anagen from Telogen Stage Hair Follicles In Vivo
Macrophage-stimulating protein helps hair grow and can start hair growth phase in mice and human hair samples.
research Alopecia
The document concludes that alopecia has significant social and psychological effects, leading to a market for hair loss treatments.
research Preclinical and Clinical Studies Demonstrate That the Proprietary Herbal Extract DA-5512 Effectively Stimulates Hair Growth and Promotes Hair Health
DA-5512 effectively improves hair growth and health, performing better than minoxidil.
research Hair Growth Promoting Effects of 650 nm Red Light Stimulation on Human Hair Follicles and Study of Its Mechanisms via RNA Sequencing Transcriptome Analysis
650 nm red light helps hair grow and prevents hair loss by affecting certain genes and biological processes.
research Isoproterenol Directs Hair Follicle-Associated Pluripotent (HAP) Stem Cells to Differentiate In Vitro to Cardiac Muscle Cells Which Can Be Induced to Form Beating Heart-Muscle Tissue Sheets
Isoproterenol helps hair follicle stem cells turn into beating heart muscle cells.
research Minoxidil: Mechanisms of Action on Hair Growth
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by opening potassium channels and increasing cell activity.
research Dermal Papilla Cell-Derived Exosomes Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cell Proliferation via LEF1
Exosomes from skin cells can boost hair growth by stimulating a gene called LEF1.
research Sensitive Quantitative In Vivo Assay for Evaluating the Effects of Biomolecules on Hair Growth and Coloring Using Direct Microinjections into Mouse Whisker Follicles
The new "whisker follicle microinjection assay" can test how different biomolecules affect hair growth and color.
research Targeted Expression of SV40 T Antigen in the Hair Follicle of Transgenic Mice Produces an Aberrant Hair Phenotype
SV40 T antigen in hair follicles causes abnormal hair and health issues in mice.
research Androgens and Human Hair Growth
Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.
research Alterations in Hair Follicle Morphology and Hair Shaft Production After Follicular Unit Transplantation
Hair transplants can make hair follicles larger and hair shafts thicker.
research Cytokine Loaded Layer-By-Layer Ultrathin Matrices to Deliver Single Dermal Papilla Cells for Spot-By-Spot Hair Follicle Regeneration
Scientists have created a method to deliver specific cells that can regenerate hair follicles, potentially offering a new treatment for hair loss.
research The Roles of Non-Coding RNA in the Development and Regeneration of Hair Follicles: Current Status and Further Perspectives
Non-coding RNAs are important for hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments, but more research is needed.
research Induction of Dermal Fibroblasts into Dermal Papilla Cell-Like Cells in Hydrogel Microcapsules for Enhanced Hair Follicle Regeneration
Hydrogel microcapsules help create cells that boost hair growth.
research In Vitro and Ex Vivo Hair Follicle Models to Explore Therapeutic Options for Hair Regeneration
New methods to test hair growth treatments have been developed.
research Melatonin Regulates the Periodic Growth of Cashmere by Upregulating the Expression of Wnt10b and β-Catenin in Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats
Melatonin makes cashmere grow earlier and more by increasing certain gene activity in goats.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
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.
