June 2022 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” 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.

August 2020 in “Cell regeneration” Hair follicle stem cells are similar to bone marrow stem cells but are better for fat cell research.
6 citations,
January 2016 in “Methods in molecular biology” Scientists have developed a new method using stem cells to grow and transplant hair follicles, which could be useful for hair regeneration treatments.
5 citations,
July 2022 in “Orphanet journal of rare diseases” RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
4 citations,
October 2022 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” Overactive Wnt signaling in mouse skin stem cells causes acne-like cysts and shrinking oil glands, which some treatments can partially fix.
4 citations,
December 2022 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” Exosomes show promise for improving wound healing, reducing aging signs, preventing hair loss, and lightening skin but require more research and better production methods.
4 citations,
January 2021 in “in Vivo” Scoparone may help stimulate hair growth by increasing stem cell-related proteins in skin cells.
