December 2016 in “Paleontological Journal” Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
