Induction of Hair Growth by Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 in 1,763 MHz Radiofrequency-Irradiated Hair Follicle Cells

Abstract: Radiofrequency (RF) radiation does not transfer high energy to break the covalent bonds of macromolecules, but these low energy stimuli might be sufficient to induce molecular responses in a specific manner. We monitored the effect of 1,763 MHz RF radiation on cultured human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs) by evaluating changes in the expression of cytokines related to hair growth. The expression of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) mRNA in hDPCs was significantly induced upon RF radiation at the specific abso… Show more

“…The onset of catagen is heralded by a reduction in the number of cells, achieved in part via an increase in programmed cell death (apoptosis) within the matrix (Driskell et al, 2011;Lindner et al, 1997;Lippens et al, 2009;, Tobin et al, 2003) mediated by brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin-4 (Botchkarev et al, 1999), and transforming growth factor-beta signaling (Botchkarev et al, , 2003Foitzik et al, 2000). This apoptotic effect is counteracted by prosurvival Wnt signals (Choi et al, 2013;Kandyba and Kobielak, 2014;Myung et al, 2013), which activate fibroblast growth factor and insulin-like growth factor signaling to enhance cell proliferation (Enshell-Seijffers et al, 2010;Katsuoka et al, 1987;Yoon et al, 2011). The onset of catagen is also retarded by glial-derived neurotrophic factor and neurturin , possibly through their effects on increasing the survival of fibroblast growth factor 5-expressing cells in the outer root sheath (Pena et al, 1999).…”

“…Depending on the context, IDO limits immune activator mechanisms, thus preventing a detrimental immune activity, or induces immunosuppression (Hainz et al, 2007). The study performed by Kang (Kang et al, 2010) by carrying through 265 in the anagen phase: for example, the assessment of IGF1 mARN is being linked with hair shaft elongation after successful radiation therapy (Yoon et al, 2011). Taken together, these data suggest the fact that the increased levels of IGF1 mARN in our patients reflect the tendency of the hair follicle to restore itself.…”
