This study found that human hair exhibits significant deformation in its intermediate filaments under strain, with recovery taking about 1000 minutes, suggesting a self-healing period post-mechanical stress. Additionally, cuticle scales deform much less than the cortex, and the Poisson ratio aligns with soft matter properties.
August 2023 in “Stem Cell Research & Therapy” In this study on male androgenetic alopecia, the researchers reported significant increases in hair count, density, and thickness with minimal side effects over 6 weeks using adipose-derived stem cell conditioned media and minoxidil, but found no significant differences between concentrated and non-concentrated treatments.
In this study, researchers found that FGF9 plays a significant role in sheep wool growth by accelerating the proliferation and cell cycle of dermal papilla cells, potentially through regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
