June 2009 in “Biomaterials” In this study, fibronectin coating on a low-adhesive substratum increased cell aggregation, growth, and motility, enhancing the formation of hair follicle dermal papilla spheroids.
25 citations
,
August 2010 in “Acta Biomaterialia” This study achieved a first by successfully forming large quantities of dermal papilla spheroidal microtissues, which retained their hair induction potential, using a micropatterned culture system.
18 citations
,
October 2021 in “Journal of Advanced Research” This study demonstrated that a new biomimetic tissue engineering strategy using DP spheroids with vascularization significantly restored the hair-inducing properties of dermal papilla cells compared to traditional 3D cultures.
3 citations
,
February 2021 in “Experimental dermatology” This study observed that using 3D dermal papilla microtissues enhances hair follicle regeneration and gene expression compared to 2D cultures, indicating their potential for hair growth drug screening.
