PBX1 helps hair stem cells grow and change by turning on certain cell signals and preventing cell death, which may be useful for hair regrowth treatments.
research Self-Organizing Hair Peg-Like Structures From Dissociated Skin Progenitor Cells: New Insights for Human Hair Follicle Organoid Engineering and Turing Patterning in an Asymmetric Morphogenetic Field
Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.
research Differential Expression and Functionality of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters in the Human Hair Follicle
Certain transporters are found in human hair follicles and may affect hair growth and loss.
research Regulation of Phytohormones on the Growth and Development of Plant Root Hair
Plant root hair growth is mainly controlled by hormones like auxin and ethylene, which promote growth, while others like brassinosteroid inhibit it.
research Frontiers in the Neuroendocrine Controls of Hair Growth
Hair growth and health are influenced by stress and hormones.
research Human Umbilical Cord Blood Mesenchymal Stem Cells Engineered to Overexpress Growth Factors Accelerate Outcomes in Hair Growth
Modified stem cells from umbilical cord blood can make hair grow faster.

research Hydrogen Peroxide and Wound Healing: A Theoretical and Practical Review for Hair Transplant Surgeons
Hydrogen peroxide's effects on wound healing in hair transplants are unclear, and it may slow healing and increase scarring.
research Trastuzumab Induced Chemobrain, Atorvastatin Rescued Chemobrain with Enhanced Anticancer Effect and without Hair Loss Side Effect
Atorvastatin reversed memory problems caused by cancer drug trastuzumab and improved its cancer-fighting abilities without causing hair loss.
research Dengue Virus Infects Primary Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells
Dengue virus can infect human hair follicle cells and may cause hair loss.
research Hair Follicle Transcriptome Profiles During the Transition from Anagen to Catagen in Cashmere Goat (Capra Hircus)
The transition from growth to regression in Cashmere goat hair follicles involves changes in expression of genes related to keratin and cell differentiation.
research The Effect of Active Hexose Correlated Compound in Modulating Cytosine Arabinoside-Induced Hair Loss, and 6-Mercaptopurine- and Methotrexate-Induced Liver Injury in Rodents
AHCC reduces hair loss and liver injury caused by chemotherapy in rodents.
research Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cell Exosomal LncRNA H19 Inhibited NLRP3 Pyroptosis to Promote Diabetic Mouse Skin Wound Healing
A substance from hair follicle stem cells helps heal skin wounds in diabetic mice by promoting cell growth and preventing cell death.
research CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Disruption of Fibroblast Growth Factor 5 in Rabbits Results in a Systemic Long Hair Phenotype by Prolonging Anagen
Disrupting the FGF5 gene in rabbits leads to longer hair by extending the hair growth phase.
research Vitamin D Receptor-Mediated Control of Soggy, Wise, and Hairless Gene Expression in Keratinocytes
Vitamin D receptor helps control hair growth genes in skin cells.
