Feb. 10, 2021 Scientists have recently developed ways to grow a variety of useful items in laboratories, from meat and diamonds to retinas and other organoids. A team has been working on ways to regenerate lost ...
June 5, 2023 Scientists discovered how to soften hair follicle stem cells to enable them to grow hair again. These cells stiffen with age and produce less hair. In a study in mice, the investigators report that ...
July 25, 2022 A single chemical is key to controlling when hair follicle cells divide, and when they die. This discovery could not only treat baldness, but ultimately speed wound healing because follicles are a ...
Mar. 31, 2021 Researchers have identified the biological mechanism of how chronic stress leads to hair loss. They found that the stress hormone corticosterone causes hair follicle stem cells to stay in an extended ...
Sep. 21, 2021 Researchers have uncovered a molecular mechanism behind why obesity can lead to hair thinning. They found that stem cells within hair follicles in mice given a high-fat diet behaved differently from ...
Apr. 19, 2023 Certain stem cells have a unique ability to move between growth compartments in hair follicles, but get stuck as people age and so lose their ability to mature and maintain hair color, a new study ...
June 23, 2022 Scientists have uncovered an unexpected molecular target of a common treatment for alopecia, a condition in which a person's immune system attacks their own hair follicles, causing hair loss. ...
Oct. 13, 2020 Medical researchers have identified a mechanism that is likely to prevent hair ...
June 14, 2021 A team of scientists has shown that the healing of skin blisters is driven by hair follicle stem cells, which delay their own development in the ...
Apr. 14, 2023 Like deployment of an elite fighting team, localization of certain T cells to the skin is important at birth and for lifelong immunity, according to new ...
