January 2016 in “Methods in molecular biology” This report introduces a tissue-engineered nerve conduit combining hfNCSCs-derived neurons and acellular nerve grafts to potentially repair long-distance peripheral nerve injuries.
August 2026 in “Mendeley Data” In this study, researchers explored how hair follicle neural crest stem cell-derived exosomes, particularly those carrying miR-214-3p, promote neurite outgrowth and aid peripheral nerve regeneration, supported by detailed in vitro and in vivo data on nerve repair and functional recovery in rat models.
August 2026 in “Mendeley Data” This review article systematically summarizes current knowledge on using hair follicle neural crest stem cells and their exosomes for repairing peripheral nerve injuries, focusing on the molecular mechanisms and potential applications. The dataset includes comparison tables and diagrams to visually present findings from existing research.
