April 2024 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that by using an automated system to analyze skin histology, 108 structural features were significantly affected by age, and it identified four new aging biomarkers and notable sex-based differences in skin aging.
September 2025 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that human dermal papilla cells are surrounded by a basement membrane-like extracellular matrix, which maintains their aggregated structure without strong cell‒cell contacts.
March 2026 in “Mendeley Data” This study found that human dermal papilla cells are embedded in a basement membrane-like extracellular matrix, which is essential for their aggregation and function, as supported by evidence that Matrigel enhances dermal papilla cohesion and gene expression compared to collagen I, which promotes cell dispersion.
