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 Growth Factor Mimetics for Skin Regeneration: In Vitro Profiling of Primary Human Fibroblasts and Keratinocytes
SUN11602 and ONO-1301 could help in skin healing and creating artificial skin.
research Synchronizing Actin and Microtubules for Axonal Branching
Certain proteins help nerve cells branch, and other findings relate to cancer, stem cell behavior, and cell division.
research Skin in the Game: Stem Cells in Repair, Cancer, and Homeostasis
Elaine Fuchs' research shows how skin stem cells maintain health, aid in healing, and are involved in cancer.
research Expression Level of Prostaglandin D2 Receptor 2 Regulates Hair Regression
Higher levels of the DP2 receptor may lead to hair loss.
research Pharmacological Application of Growth Factors: Basic and Clinical
Growth factor treatments are increasingly used in medicine but require more research to fully understand their mechanisms.
research Mechanism of Apoptotic Regulation of Follicular Regression
The document concludes that understanding how hair follicles naturally die and regenerate is important for insights into organ development and could impact health and disease treatment.
research Nanofat and PRP vs PRP in Androgenic Alopecia: An Intra-Patient Case-Control Study
Combining nanofat with PRP is more effective than PRP alone for treating male hair loss.
research Regeneration, Wound Healing, and Cancer
The document concludes that while some organisms can regenerate body parts, mammals generally cannot, and cancer progression is complex, involving mutations rather than a strict stem cell hierarchy.
research The Journey of Platelet Concentrates: An Era of Regeneration in Medicine and Dentistry - A Review
Platelet concentrates are useful for tissue repair in medicine and dentistry, with L-PRF showing promising results in various treatments.
research Dermal Wnt/β-Catenin Activation Tunably Controls Hair Follicle Initiation
Activating Wnt in skin cells controls the number of hair follicles by directing cell movement and fate.
research The De Novo DNA Methyltransferase DNMT3A Is Required for Epidermal Homeostasis
DNMT3A is crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
research Mature Adipocytes Inhibit the Antimicrobial Function of Dermal Adipogenic Stem Cells: An Explanation for Impaired Cutaneous Defense in Obesity
Obesity can weaken the skin's ability to fight infections because fat cells stop and reduce the infection-fighting properties of nearby stem cells.
research Editorial: Application of Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Their Secretory Factors for Hair Regeneration
Mesenchymal stem cells from fat tissue may effectively treat hair loss and help regrow hair.
research BRCA2 in Abscission: Role in Cytokinesis and Recruitment of Abscission Regulators
The tumor suppressor BRCA2 helps in cell division by bringing key proteins to the area where cells split.
research Stem and Cancer Cells Wnt Long Telomeres
A pathway helps maintain long telomeres in both stem and cancer cells.
research Watching Hair Grow: Intravital Two-Photon Imaging of Hair Follicle Regeneration in Transgenic Mice
Hair grows when stem cell offspring in the follicle base proliferate, influenced by the dermal papilla.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Interactions Between the Hair Follicle, the Arrector Pili Muscle, and the Sympathetic Nerve During Development and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Arrector pili muscle regulates hair follicle stem cells, DNA methylation needed for hair cycling, and Wnt/B-catenin signaling starts hair growth.
research Growth of the Hair
Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.
research Nerve-Derived Sonic Hedgehog Defines a Niche for Hair Follicle Stem Cells Capable of Becoming Epidermal Stem Cells
Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.
research Wound Healing and Skin Regeneration
Hair growth phase and certain genes can speed up wound healing, while an inflammatory mediator can slow down new hair growth after a wound. Understanding these factors can improve tissue regeneration during wound healing.
research Stem Cells and the Niche: A Dynamic Duo
Stem cell niches are crucial for regulating stem cell behavior and tissue health, and their decline can impact aging and cancer.
research Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
The conclusion is that certain cell interactions and signals are crucial for hair growth and regeneration.
research Nerve Dependence in Tissue, Organ, and Appendage Regeneration
