January 2013 in “Stem Cells and Development” This study suggests that dermal stem/progenitor cells can be enriched by intracellular granularity and display high proliferation and differentiation potential in vitro, distinguishing them from other fibroblasts and progenitors.
58 citations
,
November 2012 in “PLoS ONE” This study found that dermal fibroblast cultures, especially those with higher alpha-smooth muscle actin expression, can be used to produce skin-derived precursor cells, unlike human hair follicle dermal papilla cultures.
11 citations
,
June 2012 in “Journal of Dermatological Science” This article reviews how aging affects skin and stem cells, but it contains no new research findings.
68 citations
,
December 2011 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study reported that a three-dimensional hydrogel culture system supports the growth and maintenance of distinct dermal papilla cell types, crucial for skin reconstitution assays in neonatal mice.
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.
338 citations
,
July 2009 in “Development” This study demonstrates that Sox2-positive dermal papilla cells specify particular hair follicle types by showing heterogeneity in gene expression and pathway activation in these cells.
550 citations
,
December 2005 in “The Journal of clinical investigation/The journal of clinical investigation” This study found that bulge cells marked by CD200+ in human hair follicles show high colony-forming efficiency, suggesting successful enrichment of keratinocyte stem cells.
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.
417 citations
,
September 2005 in “PLoS biology” This study developed molecular signatures for dermal papilla cells and their niche, uncovering novel signaling regulators and genes linked to hair disorders, which may inform future hair development research.
