August 2008 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that C8/144B antibody exclusively binds to the hair follicle bulge and not the epidermal stratum basale, with cytokeratin 19 serving as a key marker of certain basal keratinocytes that decrease with age.

August 2012 in “Experimental Dermatology” In this study, engineered skin substitutes containing murine dermal papilla cells developed hair follicle-like structures when grafted onto mice, suggesting a model for generating chimeric hair.
41 citations
,
June 2013 in “PLOS ONE” This study demonstrated that engineered skin substitutes using human keratinocytes and murine dermal papilla cells can develop pigmented hairs without sebaceous glands, suggesting separate pathways for hair development and eruption.
12 citations
,
June 2012 in “Wound Repair and Regeneration” This study found that basal keratinocytes in engineered skin substitutes showed a proliferative phenotype and potential for long-term replication, which may enhance wound healing stability.

,
April 2021 in “Biomedicines” This study found that engineered skin substitutes made with skin-derived precursors and epidermal stem cells can regenerate hair follicles after grafting into nude mice.
