February 2025 in “Cell Biology International” This study found that both dental pulp-derived and hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells showed similar stemness properties and differentiation potential, but hair follicle-derived cells exhibited superior differentiation into insulin-producing cells, suggesting their potential for autologous stem cell therapy in diabetes.
April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly lower frequencies of IL-10 producing CD19+CD24hiCD38hi regulatory B cells compared to healthy volunteers, suggesting a potential role for these cells in the autoimmune response seen in the condition.

July 2009 in “Journal of dermatology” This case report describes a 29-year-old Japanese man with follicular mucinosis, suggesting nestin-positive, multipotent hair follicle stem cells may be involved in reticular epithelial degeneration of the outer root sheath.
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) may play a role in hair follicle neogenesis and that an HGF mimetic could enhance skin substitute development.
