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.

December 2022 in “Animals” Blocking miR-27a increases sheep hair follicle stem cell growth and decreases cell death, which could help improve wool quality and treat hair loss.
May 2024 in “Journal of Advanced Research” Communication between blood vessel and hair follicle cells decreases with age, affecting hair growth and blood vessel formation.
TLR2 helps control hair growth and regeneration, and its reduction with age or obesity can impair hair growth.
May 2022 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology” miR-29a-5p prevents the formation of early hair structures by targeting a gene important for hair growth and is regulated by a complex network involving lncRNA627.1.
Activin A and follistatin control when ear hair cells form in mice.
Activin A promotes ear hair cell development, while follistatin delays it.
