December 2013 in “Stem cells and development” This study found that treating skin wounds with a combination of epidermis-derived epithelial-like stem/progenitor cells and platelet-rich plasma improved tissue repair and increased vascularization and elastin content compared to platelet-rich plasma alone.
August 2023 in “Scientific reports” In this study, researchers differentiated human induced pluripotent stem cells into dermal papilla-like cells and observed gene expression dynamics during five stages of dermal differentiation, demonstrating the potential of these cells to interact with epidermal cells in functional assays.
