April 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study identifies a mechanism where dsRNA activates TLR3 to induce RA production, promoting hair follicle regeneration in mice and suggesting a potential role in human tissue regeneration.
April 2018 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study identified a novel mechanism by which dsRNA-induced TLR3 activation and retinoic acid pathways contribute to new hair follicle formation after deep wounds in mice and suggested a similar potential in humans.
July 2023 in “British journal of dermatology/British journal of dermatology, Supplement” This study investigated age-related changes in female scalp dermal fibroblasts, finding alterations in gene and protein expressions associated with fibrosis and senescence, which could potentially affect hair follicle health and contribute to aging-related hair changes.

January 2021 in “BMC Genomics” This study found that high wool-producing Wan Strain Angora rabbits had higher hair follicle density and identified potential regulatory long noncoding RNAs that may influence this trait.
September 2020 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that Wan strain Angora rabbits with high wool production had higher hair follicle density and identified five long noncoding RNAs as potential regulators of this trait.
