October 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” Immune cells are essential for early hair and skin development and healing.
April 2020 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” Skin healing from blisters can delay hair growth as stem cells focus on repairing skin over developing hair.
January 2019 in “Advances in stem cells and their niches” Skin health and repair depend on the signals between skin stem cells and their surrounding cells.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Older mice healed wounds better but lost more weight and might have weaker immune systems afterward.
January 2018 in “Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine” ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling is crucial for skin development and stem cell function.
November 2013 in “Elsevier eBooks” Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
April 2018 in “Deleted Journal” Skin grafts are a common, minimally invasive way to close wounds in dogs, but better methods are still being sought.
10 citations,
June 2021 in “EMBO reports” When skin blisters, healing the wound is more important than growing hair, and certain stem cells mainly fix the blisters without helping hair growth.
14 citations,
May 2021 in “Marine Drugs” PDRN, derived from salmon sperm, shows promise in healing wounds, reducing inflammation, and regenerating tissues, but more research is needed to understand its mechanisms and improve its use.
10 citations,
June 2019 in “Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine” Scientists successfully grew new hair follicles in regenerated mouse skin using mouse and human cells.
9 citations,
September 2017 in “Nanoscale Research Letters” Graphene oxide helps deliver a skin healing agent over time, improving skin and hair follicle regeneration.
1 citations,
April 2022 in “Regenerative Therapy” Activating the GDNF-GFRα1-RET signaling pathway could potentially promote skin and limb regeneration in humans and could be used to treat hair loss and promote wound healing.
