In what researchers are calling a “major breakthrough”, a team, led by Prof Takashi Tsuji, say they have managed to recreate the full cycle of hair growth in mice – meaning hair could grow, fall out and grow back again naturally. While transplanted hair can already grow, recreating follicles that can behave like the natural hair inside the body – repeatedly growing, shedding and regrowing over time – has proved far more difficult.
