January 2024 in “ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering” A new method using a microfluidic device can prepare hair follicle germs efficiently for potential use in hair loss treatments.
Autophagy helps activate hair stem cells and hair growth by changing their energy use to glycolysis.
January 2024 in “Journal of tissue engineering” Sunlight exposure damages hair follicles, but certain stem cell-derived particles can reduce this damage and help with hair regeneration.
May 2023 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology” The document concludes that using stem cells to regenerate hair follicles could be a promising treatment for hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome before it can be used clinically.
