Fisetin Promotes Hair Growth by Augmenting TERT Expression

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Although thinning hair and alopecia are not recognized as severe diseases, hair loss has implications for mental health and quality of life; therefore, a large number of studies have been carried out to develop novel hair growth agents.

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial

Jagged1 and Epidermal Growth Factor Promoted Androgen-Suppressed Mouse Hair Growth In Vitro and In Vivo

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Recent studies have reported that T-reg cells are intimately linked with hair follicles in a stage-dependent manner and play an important role in hair follicle cycling and regeneration in murine skin.

Pemphigus and the terminal hair follicle

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, 1991
The scalp is frequently involved in the autoimmune skin disease pemphigus. This study demonstrates the distribution of pemphigus antigen in the scalp terminal hair follicle; as well as being found in the epidermis, it is distributed throughout the whole hair follicle outer root sheath and in the dermal bulb matrix cells.

Dynamic changes in connexin expression correlate with key events in the wound healing process. [PDF]

, 2003
Wound healing is a complex process requiring communication for the precise co-ordination of different cell types. The role of extracellular communication through growth factors in the wound healing process has been extensively documented, but the role of

3D Printing of Conducting Polymer Hydrogels for Electrostimulation‐Assisted Tissue Engineering

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights nanosized inherently conducting polymers (ICPs) as promising ink constituents for 3D printing of conducting hydrogel (CH)‐based electrostimulation (ES) devices. ICP‐based ink formulation, 3D printing, and solidification strategies are discussed, along with the application of 3D‐printed ICP‐based CHs as ES platforms for regulating

Thyroxine differentially modulates the peripheral clock: lessons from the human hair follicle [PDF]

, 2015
The human hair follicle (HF) exhibits peripheral clock activity, with knock-down of clock genes (BMAL1 and PER1) prolonging active hair growth (anagen) and increasing pigmentation.

Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic

AP collagen peptides improve hair growth and quality by promoting human hair cell proliferation and keratin synthesis [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences
Hair is an essential protective and health-maintaining covering for the body, especially the scalp. It is also important esthetically in modern society, where hair loss, whether caused by the severe scalp condition androgenic alopecia or other internal ...

Cyclic dermal BMP signalling regulates stem cell activation during hair regeneration [PDF]

, 2008
In the age of stem cell engineering it is critical to understand how stem cell activity is regulated during regeneration. Hairs are mini-organs that undergo cyclic regeneration throughout adult life1, and are an important model for organ regeneration ...
