Cortisol concentration of hair (HCC) is an established biomarker in stress research that can provide valuable retrospective information on subjects’ long-term cortisol levels. Using a population-wide sample of in total N = 482 participants this study aimed to examine whether there are differences in HCC when participants collect the required samples by themselves with the help of a partner in domestic settings compared to professionally collected hair strands in the lab. Potential confounding factors that may affect HCC and might obfuscate the outcomes were considered.

Hair regenerative medicine is a promising approach for the treatment of hair loss and involves the transplantation of follicular stem cells into bald spots to regenerate hair. Various approaches have been investigated to engineer tissue grafts for use in hair regenerative medicine. Tissue-like three-dimensional aggregates, such as bioengineered hair follicle germs (HFGs), have shown great promise for hair regeneration, with normal tissue morphology and hair cycles. However, these approaches have not yet been applied in clinical settings, and further studies are needed to improve hair generation efficiency.
