November 2025 in “Cells” This review presents evidence supporting the potential of adipose-derived stem cell secretome as a promising cell-free therapy for skin repair, emphasizing its application in wound healing, alopecia, skin rejuvenation, and inflammatory skin diseases.
October 2025 in “International Journal of Cell and Biomedical Science” In this study, the application of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome significantly increased hair follicle count in fluconazole-induced alopecia in rats, although changes in epidermal thickness were not significant, suggesting a novel approach for hair restoration.
May 2024 in “Cytotherapy” In this study, a 40-year-old man with hair loss showed complete hair regrowth and no relapse 24 weeks after receiving umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell and secretome injections, highlighting their potential for alopecia treatment, although further research involving larger populations is needed.
