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.
research Effect of Hyaluronic Acid and Poly-L-Lactic Acid Dermal Fillers on Collagen Synthesis: An In Vitro and In Vivo Study
Hyaluronic acid increases collagen synthesis safely, while poly-L-lactic acid may cause complications by affecting fibroblasts.
research Optical Properties of Hair: Effect of Treatments on Luster as Quantified by Image Analysis

research Hydrogel Crosslinking Modulates Macrophages, Fibroblasts, And Their Communication During Wound Healing
Softer hydrogels help wounds heal better with less scarring.
research Fillers Impacting Follicles: The Emerging Complication of Filler-Induced Alopecia
Filler injections can cause temporary hair loss, but hyaluronidase can help restore hair within a few months.
research Human Hair Keratin Gradient Metallogel and Their Applications for Wound Healing
The research developed a human hair keratin and silver ion hydrogel that could help heal wounds.
research Cell-Repellent Polyampholyte for Conformal Coating on Microstructures
Prevelex, a polyampholyte, can create a cell-repellent coating on microdevices, which can be useful in biomedical applications like hair follicle regeneration.
research Complications and Difficult Cases: A Neurosurgeon’s Perspective on Hair Restoration Surgery
Hair restoration surgery in patients with prior neurosurgery or radiation treatment can have risks like infection and poor wound healing, so it's important to discuss these with the patient.
research Analysis on the Application of Polyamide (PA) Materials to Replace Existing Materials in Hair Dryer Housings
research Dissolving Microneedles: Applications and Growing Therapeutic Potential
Dissolving microneedles show promise for delivering medication through the skin but face challenges like manufacturing complexity and regulatory hurdles.
research Anabolic Effects of Testosterone Are Preserved During Inhibition of 5α-Reductase
Testosterone can build muscle and bone without enlarging the prostate when a specific enzyme is blocked.
research Gene Therapy to Enhance Angiogenesis in Chronic Wounds
Gene therapy shows promise for healing chronic wounds but needs more research to overcome challenges.
research Two Mechanisms Regulate Keratin K15 Expression in Keratinocytes: Role of PKC/AP-1 and FOXM1 Mediated Signaling
Keratin 15 expression in skin cells is regulated by two mechanisms involving PKC/AP-1 and FOXM1.
research Bone-Forming Cells with Pronounced Spread into the Third Dimension in Polymer Scaffolds Fabricated by Two-Photon Polymerization
Bone-forming cells grow well in 3D polymer scaffolds with 35 µm pores.
research Non-Viral Delivery of the CRISPR/Cas System: DNA Versus RNA Versus RNP
RNA delivery is best for in-body use, while RNP delivery is good for outside-body use. Both methods are expected to greatly impact future treatments.
research Volatile Organic Compounds: A Proinflammatory Activator in Autoimmune Diseases
Volatile organic compounds can cause inflammation and increase the risk of autoimmune diseases.
research Nitric Oxide: Physiological Functions, Delivery, and Biomedical Applications
Nitric Oxide has potential in medicine, especially for infections and heart treatments, but its short life and delivery challenges limit its use.
research Biofabrication of Human Skin with Its Appendages
Current methods can't fully recreate skin and its features, and more research is needed for clinical use.
research Stimuli-Responsive Nanoformulations for CRISPR-Cas9 Genome Editing
Advancements in nanoformulations for CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing can respond to specific triggers for controlled gene editing, showing promise in treating incurable diseases, but challenges like precision and system design complexity still need to be addressed.
research Dual-Action Icariin-Containing Thermosensitive Hydrogel for Wound Macrophage Polarization and Hair Follicle Neogenesis
The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.
