September 2010 in “Journal of dermatological science” This study suggests that mesenchymal stem cell-induced dermal papilla-like tissues can generate new hair follicles in mice, indicating potential for developing hair cell therapy using stem cells.
330 citations
,
December 2009 in “Cell stem cell” This study suggests that skin-derived precursors from Sox2(+) hair follicle dermal cells have the potential to function as dermal stem cells, supporting hair morphogenesis, dermal maintenance, and wound-healing.
58 citations
,
April 2009 in “Current stem cell research & therapy” This review discusses the differentiation and reprogramming capabilities of both hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic stem cells and their significance for regenerative medicine; it reports no new experimental results.

August 2006 in “Cell and Tissue Research”
208 citations
,
December 2003 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that dermal papilla and peribulbar dermal sheath cup cells in mice can both induce hair follicle formation, suggesting they may have similar functional roles in hair growth.
158 citations
,
May 2003 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study observed that hair follicle mesenchyme in mice exhibits significant plasticity during the hair cycle, with cell migration and changes in papilla size impacting hair production.
