November 2024 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Scalp hair follicle cells help protect and heal skin in certain skin conditions.
April 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Researchers fixed gene mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice.
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.
