Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy in Alopecia Areata: Visual and Molecular Evidence from a Mouse Model

    Song Hee Park, Seo-Won Song, Yu Jin Lee … Jung Eun Kim
    Studysummary In this animal study, researchers found that local administration of mesenchymal stem cell therapy improved hair regrowth and reduced local inflammatory cytokines in mice with Alopecia Areata, although systemic cytokine levels were unchanged.
