research Investigation of the hair follicle inner root sheath in scarring and non‐scarring alopecia
This study found that premature desquamation of the inner root sheath is a non-specific histologic feature in scarring alopecia and cannot be used alone to define central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.
research VEGF upregulates VEGF receptor-2 on human outer root sheath cells and stimulates proliferation through ERK pathway
This study found that human outer root sheath cells express VEGF receptor-2, and exogenous VEGF165 significantly stimulates their proliferation through activation of the ERK signaling pathway.

research Heparanase 1: a key participant of inner root sheath differentiation program and hair follicle homeostasis
This study found that heparanase is primarily located in the inner root sheath of human hair follicles during the anagen phase, and inhibiting it in cultured hair follicles induces a catagen-like process.
research μ-Crystallin, Thyroid Hormone-binding Protein, is Expressed Abundantly in the Murine Inner Root Sheath Cells
This study found that mu-crystallin gene expression in mouse skin is highest during the anagen phase of hair development, suggesting its possible role in hair follicle growth.
research In vitro effects of testosterone, dihydrotestosterone and estradiol on cell growth of human hair bulb papilla cells and hair root sheath fibroblasts.
In this study, high concentrations of dihydrotestosterone and testosterone reduced the growth of human hair follicle cells in vitro, while high estradiol levels increased their growth.
research Comparative aspects of the inner root sheath in adult and developing hairs of mammals in relation to the evolution of hairs
This study suggests that the structure and function of the inner root sheath in mammalian hair may have evolved from simpler forms seen in monotremes, aiding in hair exit without damaging the epidermis.
research An osteopontin‐derived peptide inhibits human hair growth at least in part by decreasing fibroblast growth factor‐7 production in outer root sheath keratinocytes
This study found that a novel peptide, FOL-005, derived from osteopontin, significantly inhibited hair growth in human hair follicles both ex vivo and in vivo, suggesting potential as a treatment for unwanted hair growth.
research miR-140-5p in Small Extracellular Vesicles From Human Papilla Cells Stimulates Hair Growth by Promoting Proliferation of Outer Root Sheath and Hair Matrix Cells
This study found that extracellular vesicles from low-passage dermal papilla cells may activate hair growth by delivering miR-140-5p, which downregulates BMP2 signaling, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for alopecia.
research Pilomatricoma can differentiate not only towards hair matrix and hair cortex, but also follicular infundibulum, outer root sheath and hair bulge
This study suggests that pilomatricoma can differentiate towards various hair follicle structures, including hair matrix, hair cortex, follicular infundibulum, outer root sheath, and hair bulge.
research Epidermis reconstructed from the outer root sheath of human hair follicle. Effect of retinoic acid
Human hair follicles can be used to create skin-like tissue for wound healing and drug testing.
research Hairless Plays a Role in Formation of Inner Root Sheath via Regulation of Dlx3 Gene
In this study, researchers found that overexpression of the hairless protein in Hr mutant mice disrupts inner root sheath formation by downregulating Dlx3 and associated keratins in hair follicle development.
research Effect of minoxidil sulfate and pinacidil on single potassium channel current in cultured human outer root sheath cells and dermal papilla cells
This study found that minoxidil sulfate and pinacidil did not activate K channel currents in hair follicles, suggesting their effect on hair growth might occur through other mechanisms like increased blood flow.
research Novel ALK5 inhibitor TP0427736 reduces TGF-β induced growth inhibition in human outer root sheath cells and elongates anagen phase in mouse hair follicles
TP0427736 may help treat hair loss by blocking a specific protein and promoting hair growth.
research FORMATION OF A REGULAR NEO-EPIDERMIS BY CULTURED HUMAN OUTER ROOT SHEATH CELLS GRAFTED ON NUDE MICE
This study suggests that human outer root sheath cells are suitable for skin replacement, as they can form a stratified epithelium similar to normal epidermis in organotypic cultures.
research Synthesis of porcine pCLCA2 protein during late differentiation of keratinocytes of epidermis and hair follicle inner root sheath
In this study, researchers found that the pCLCA2 protein is expressed in specific areas of pig skin, but its role in skin structure or function remains unclear.
