research New Activators and Inhibitors in the Hair Cycle Clock: Targeting Stem Cells’ State of Competence
The conclusion is that Fgf18 and Tgf-ß signaling could be targeted for hair loss treatments.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge Do Not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration After Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.
research Transgenic Flash Mice for In Vivo Quantitative Monitoring of Canonical Wnt Signaling to Track Hair Follicle Cycle Dynamics
Researchers developed a mouse model that tracks hair growth using bioluminescence, improving accuracy in studying hair cycles.
research Keratin 71 Mutations: From Water Dogs to Woolly Hair
A mutation in the KRT71 gene causes a hair disorder by disrupting hair follicle structure and texture.
research Retinoids Putting the 'A' in Alopecia
Vitamin A may influence hair loss conditions like alopecia, but more research is needed to understand how.
research Feather on the Cap of Medicine
Feathers are useful for researching growth, regeneration, and the effects of treatments like chemotherapy on hair loss.

Mice can regrow hair on wounds due to specific cell interactions and mechanical forces not seen in rats.
research Down-Ranking the Threat of HSV-1: RANKL Upregulates MHC Class I Restricted Anti-Viral Immunity in Herpes Simplex Virus Infection
RANKL improves the immune response against herpes simplex virus by enhancing T cell activation and could help develop better treatments or vaccines.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration Using Grafted Rodent and Human Cells
Grafted rodent and human cells can regenerate hair follicles, but efficiency decreases with age.
research Adenovirus-Mediated Wnt10b Overexpression Induces Hair Follicle Regeneration
Wnt10b overexpression can regenerate hair follicles, possibly helping treat hair loss and alopecia.
research Regenerative Hair Waves in Aging Mice and Extra-Follicular Modulators Follistatin, Dkk1, and Sfrp4
Aging mice have slower hair regeneration due to changes in signal balance, but the environment, not stem cell loss, controls this, suggesting treatments could focus on environmental factors.
research A Human Folliculoid Microsphere Assay for Exploring Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions in the Human Hair Follicle
HFMs can help study hair growth and test potential hair growth drugs.
research Defining Hair Follicles in the Age of Stem Cell Bioengineering
The study found that bioengineered hair follicles work when using cells from the same species but have issues when combining human and mouse cells.
research Regeneration of Hair Follicles Is Modulated by Flightless I (Flii) in a Rodent Vibrissa Model
Flightless I protein affects hair growth, with low levels delaying it and high levels increasing hair length in rodents.
research DMBA/TPA Treatment Is Necessary for Basal Cell Carcinoma Formation from Patched Deficient Epidermal Cells in Ptch Flox/Flox CD4Cre +/- Mice
Genetic mutation and carcinogen treatment are both needed for skin cancer to develop in these specific mice.
research Many Paths to Alopecia via Compromised Regeneration of Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Different problems with hair stem cell renewal can lead to hair loss.
research Adipose and Hair Function: An Apparent Connection
Fat tissue and a specific protein are crucial for healthy hair growth and maintenance.
research Unexpected Autocrine Role of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Squamous Cell Carcinoma
VEGF helps squamous cell carcinoma grow in ways beyond just blood vessel formation.
research Light-Emitting Hair Follicles: Studying Skin Regeneration With In Vivo Imaging
Scientists developed tools to observe hair regeneration in real time and assess skin health, using glowing mice and light-controlled genes.
research Mimicking Hair Disorders by Genetic Manipulation of Organ-Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Scientists can mimic hair disorders by altering genes in lab-grown human hair follicles, but these follicles lack some features of natural ones.
research Stem Cells in the Hair Follicle and Interfollicular Epidermis of Mice Following Topical Application of Fluocinolone Acetonide
Fluocinolone acetonide slows down hair follicle stem cells but speeds up skin cell growth in mice.
research Review on Premature White and Grey Hair in Children
Poor quality hair products contribute to premature greying in children.

research Modeling Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss: From Experimental Propositions Toward Clinical Reality
A new model using mice with human hair follicles helps better understand hair loss from chemotherapy.
research The Thinning Top: Why Older People Have Less Hair
Old people have less hair because their hair follicles don't regenerate as well, not because of fewer stem cells, and a protein called follistatin might help reactivate hair growth.
research Nuclear Topology, Epigenetics, and Keratinocyte Differentiation
Nuclear shape and chromatin changes affect gene expression in skin cell differentiation.
