November 1998 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” In this study, researchers found that while both beard and scalp dermal papilla cells release similar autocrine growth factors, only beard cells increased production and response with testosterone, suggesting these factors enhance androgen-induced hair growth.
27 citations
,
December 1997 in “Archives of Dermatological Research” This study observed that cultured dermal papilla cells showed distinct functional properties from dermal fibroblasts, including lower proliferation rates, higher adhesion to collagen type IV, and different cell-matrix interactions.
11 citations
,
October 1997 in “British Journal of Dermatology” This study found that a serum-free culture system supported hair growth from follicles responsive to calcium, glucose, and amino acids, with insulin enhancing the growth, while other factors had no effect.
19 citations
,
October 1996 in “Dermatologic Clinics” This review discusses using cultured dermal papilla cells to investigate hair follicle biology, emphasizing their potential to inform treatments, but reports no new clinical results.
36 citations
,
September 1996 in “PubMed” This study found that dermal papilla and dermal sheath cells from human scalp tissue differ from interstitial dermal fibroblasts in morphology and produce varying levels of TGF-beta 2.
37 citations
,
June 1996 in “Journal of cellular physiology” This study found that IGF1, retinoic acid, and dexamethasone increase IGFBP-3 production in cultured human dermal papilla cells, potentially inhibiting IGF1 action on hair growth.
44 citations
,
July 1993 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” 9 citations
,
July 1993 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that the in vitro growth of hair follicle cells, particularly papilla cells and outer root sheath keratinocytes, is influenced by different concentrations of androgens and antiandrogens.
12 citations
,
July 1993 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that hair follicle cells' growth in vitro is influenced by the concentration of androgens and antiandrogens, with papilla cells and outer root sheath keratinocytes showing distinct sensitivity.
34 citations
,
July 1993 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study suggests that androgens influence hair follicle behavior via the dermal papilla, using evidence from human and red deer cells with differing androgen responses as models.
85 citations
,
January 1991 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” 22 citations
,
July 1990 in “Acta Dermato Venereologica” In this study, high concentrations of dihydrotestosterone and testosterone reduced the growth of human hair follicle cells in vitro, while high estradiol levels increased their growth.
106 citations
,
April 1986 in “British Journal of Dermatology” This study found that dermal papilla cells from human hair follicles form multi-layered aggregates when cultured in vitro, contrasting with the monolayer growth of dermal fibroblasts.
