Glossary Stem Cell Activity

processes where cells divide and become specialized types

Stem cell activity refers to the processes by which stem cells divide and differentiate into various specialized cell types. In the context of hair growth, active stem cells in hair follicles can regenerate and produce new hair, which is crucial for maintaining healthy hair cycles and potentially treating conditions like alopecia.

research An in vivo comparative study of sonic, desert and Indian hedgehog reveals that hedgehog pathway activity regulates epidermal stem cell homeostasis

99 citations , September 2004 in “Development”

This study suggests that deregulation of sonic and desert hedgehog signaling in mouse skin can lead to altered epidermal stem cell activity and lesions similar to human basal cell carcinoma, indicating these cancers may originate outside the stem cell population.

research Analyses of regenerative wave patterns in adult hair follicle populations reveal macro-environmental regulation of stem cell activity

64 citations , January 2009 in “The International journal of developmental biology”

This study found that intra-follicular Wnt signaling and dermal BMP signaling oscillate differently during hair cycling in mice, affecting hair wave propagation and phases of hair growth.

community The ending of alopecia? Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence

63 upvotes 4 years ago

Corticosterone inhibits GAS6, affecting hair follicle stem-cell activity, with potential implications for stress-related hair loss. Ashwagandha and Vitamin K are suggested for reducing cortisol, but their effectiveness is debated.

community What do you guys think about Stem cell treatments

4 upvotes 5 years ago

Stem cell and exosome injections for hair loss are discussed, with skepticism about their effectiveness and concerns about using non-genetically related stem cells. Dr. Deyarmin's treatments are mentioned, with some users questioning their legitimacy and others expressing curiosity.

community New Hair Loss Treatment: Adipose Derived Secretomes

18 upvotes 1 year ago

Adipose-derived stem cell secretome showed significant improvement in hair density and growth, especially when combined with minoxidil, suggesting a synergistic effect. The study had limitations, including a small sample size and potential bias.

community Now that hair loss in mice is solved, can they move on to people?

709 upvotes 5 months ago

Hair loss treatments are being tested on mice, with methods like minoxidil and stem cell therapy showing promising results. However, human trials are still years away, leading to humorous frustration about mice benefiting first.

community True hair loss Vs shedding cycle

2 upvotes 7 months ago

The user stabilized hair loss with oral finasteride, dutasteride, and topical minoxidil, and underwent a stem cell and PRP procedure. Recent increased hair shedding may be due to restarting dermarolling, affecting minoxidil absorption, or the waning effects of the stem cell treatment.
