May 2024 in “Molecules/Molecules online/Molecules annual” Plant extracts can help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
March 2024 in “Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology” Phloroglucinol may help improve hair loss by promoting hair growth and reducing oxidative stress.
January 2024 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” A new method using stem cell membranes to deliver Minoxidil improved hair growth in mice better than Minoxidil alone.
August 2023 in “Stem Cell Research & Therapy” A substance called Cell-free fat extract can effectively treat common hair loss by increasing hair growth and density.
August 2023 in “International Journal of Nanomedicine” A new wound healing treatment using a graphene-based material with white light speeds up healing and reduces infection and scarring.
November 2020 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” Ezh2 controls skin development by balancing signals for dermal and epidermal growth.
January 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings” The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
