April 2009 in “Circulation Research” This study found that human fetal CD133+ progenitor cells and their conditioned medium accelerated wound healing and promoted angiogenesis in a mouse model of ischemic diabetic ulcers through paracrine mechanisms involving Wnt signaling.
26 citations

June 2016 in “FEBS Journal” The study found that up-regulating β-catenin signaling in CD 133-positive dermal papilla cells enhanced their ability to promote hair follicle regeneration both in vitro and in vivo.
15 citations
,
July 2016 in “Biochemical Journal” This study found that Wnt ligands from CD133-positive dermal papilla cells are essential for maintaining hair growth by supporting cell signaling between different hair follicle structures.
