September 2022 in “Organoid” A new method was developed to efficiently grow skin hair follicles from stem cells, potentially aiding alopecia treatment.
The study investigated the effects of UC-MSC-Es on the proliferation of human hair dermal papilla cells (HHDPCs). HHDPCs were treated with varying concentrations of UC-MSC-Es and minoxidil for 72 hours, and cell proliferation was assessed using the WST-1 assay. The results, expressed as mean ± SEM with sample sizes ranging from 3 to 12, showed that UC-MSC-Es significantly enhanced the proliferation of HHDPCs compared to the control, with statistical significance indicated by *p < 0.05.
