October 2025 in “Journal of Visualized Experiments” In this study, researchers presented a protocol for generating planar skin organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells, which include hair follicles and other skin structures, offering a relevant in vitro model for investigating skin physiology, pathogen interactions, and drug responses.
This study found that culturing hair follicles at the air-liquid interface enhanced hair growth and maintained an anagen-like morphology better than submerged cultures.
September 2023 in “Stem cell reviews and reports” This study introduces a new method to isolate stem cells from the hair follicle outer root sheath of equine skin, demonstrating that these cells, named eMSCORS, proliferate efficiently and can differentiate similarly to adipose tissue-derived MSCs, offering a promising alternative for equine veterinary applications.
