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.
December 2023 in “International journal of multidisciplinary research and analysis” In this study, topical administration of secretome hypoxia mesenchymal stem cells gel increased IL-10 and decreased TNF-α gene expression in a fluconazole-induced alopecia-like model in rats, with the 40 μL dose having the most significant effect.
December 2023 in “International journal of multidisciplinary research and analysis” This study suggests that administering SH-MSCs gel might decrease IL-6 expression and increase TGF-β expression in alopecia-like rats, indicating potential for alopecia therapy.
