March 2009 in “British journal of dermatology/British journal of dermatology, Supplement” In this study, l-Ascorbic acid 2-phosphate was found to stimulate hair follicle growth in vitro by promoting IGF-1 expression via the PI3K pathway.
24 citations
,
February 2006 in “Chinese Medical Journal” This study found that dermal papilla cells cultured in vitro can promote hair follicle regeneration and maintain hair growth, with stronger ET-1 and SCF expression enhancing this regenerative ability.
88 citations

May 2005 in “Journal of Dermatological Science” In this study, specific versican expression was observed in the anagen phase of human hair follicles, suggesting its importance in maintaining normal hair growth.
57 citations
,
November 1998 in “Wound Repair and Regeneration” This research observed that dermal papilla cells have the potential to regenerate hair bulbs under preferred environmental conditions when associated with dermal sheath cells or exposed to specific growth factors.
19 citations
