October 2016 in “Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy” In this study, minoxidil and human platelet lysate affected gene expression related to hair growth signaling pathways in mouse hair follicle cells.
4 citations
,
January 2016 in “Methods in molecular biology” This chapter reviews the methodology for isolating and differentiating CD34+ HAP stem cells into neural cells, but provides no new research results.
52 citations
,
May 2015 in “PLOS Genetics” This study found that the microRNA miR-22 is a key regulator of the hair cycle, influencing hair loss by promoting the transition from growth to rest phases and repressing keratinocyte differentiation.
25 citations
,
January 2015 in “World journal of stem cells” This review discusses the potential of hair follicle stem cells as a novel source for cell therapy in neurodegenerative disorders, but it reports no new clinical results.
19 citations

August 2013 in “Journal of Molecular Neuroscience” 33 citations
,
September 2008 in “Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications” Hair follicles can be used to easily create neurons and glial cells for potential nerve repair.
144 citations
,
June 2008 in “Cell Cycle” This study found that in mice, transplanting hair follicle stem cells promoted recovery from spinal cord injury, as these cells largely differentiated into Schwann cells aiding nerve repair.
319 citations
,
November 2005 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” This study suggests that hair follicle stem cells from transgenic mice can improve nerve regeneration and function, highlighting their potential as an autologous source for regenerative medicine.
1279 citations

November 2005 in “Nature Medicine” 419 citations
,
March 2005 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” This study demonstrated that ND-GFP stem cells from the hair-follicle bulge area can differentiate into various cell types, including neurons, suggesting their potential as a source for therapeutic applications.
130 citations
,
January 1994 in “Differentiation” In this study, researchers found that bulge cells in mouse hair follicles undergo transient proliferation during early anagen, indicating their role as follicular stem cells. However, another factor beyond dermal papilla proximity may be required to initiate a new anagen phase.
