In order to investigate this scenario more closely in the laboratory, researchers have now developed a model with human hair follicles embedded in a matrix produced using 3D printing. In the ...

In the future, this model can be used to test the effectiveness of new drug candidates against corresponding pathogens directly on human follicles. The team has published their results in the journal ...

Previously, new drug candidates for hair follicle infections were initially tested in simpler models, such as free-floating human hair follicles in liquid culture. However, these models do not ...

transplantation of human hair to rodent models, constructing computational models of hair growth and examining the intricacies of hair growth in individuals could unravel the molecular drivers of ...
