Protective Effects of Human Umbilical Cord Blood-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Against Dexamethasone-Induced Apoptotic Cell Death in Hair Follicles

    Dong Ho Bak, Esther Lee, Mi Sun Choi … Beom Kim
    Studysummary This study found that human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUCB-MSCs) significantly prevented hair loss induced by dexamethasone in a mouse model and enhanced cell proliferation in human hair follicle cells, suggesting a protective effect against stress-related hair loss.
