research Effects of Dihydrotestosterone on Rat Dermal Papilla Cells In Vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) doesn't affect rat skin cell growth, but it does change cell cycle, protein levels, and other cell functions, potentially shortening hair growth cycle.
research Hair Regeneration Methods Using Cells Derived from Human Hair Follicles and Challenges to Overcome
The article reviews current methods and challenges in hair regeneration using cells derived from human hair follicles, focusing on the complex interaction between mesenchymal and epithelial cells. It highlights the potential of dermal papilla (DP) and epithelial stem cells (Epi-SCs) in generating new hair follicles but notes difficulties due to gene loss during cell culture and insufficient cell numbers. Techniques such as 3D cultures, signaling pathway activation, and the use of small molecules or exosomes are explored to restore the hair-inducing ability of DP cells. Despite advancements, challenges remain in maintaining cell inductivity and creating a conducive microenvironment for hair growth, emphasizing the need for improved methods to achieve functional and cycling hair follicles using only human cells.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes

Neuregulin3 affects cell development in the skin and mammary glands.
research Oral Vitamin A as an Adjunct Treatment for Canine Sebaceous Adenitis
Vitamin A might be a safe extra treatment for dogs with sebaceous adenitis, but more research is needed to prove its effectiveness.
research Gene Expression of Osteopontin in Alopecia Areata: A Case-Controlled Study
People with alopecia areata have higher levels of osteopontin, which might be important in the disease's development, but this doesn't relate to how severe the disease is.
research External Light Activates Hair Follicle Stem Cells Through Eyes Via an ipRGC–SCN–Sympathetic Neural Pathway
