February 2017 in “Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine” The study investigated the role of VEGF165 in inducing the differentiation of hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) into vascular endothelial cells, highlighting its potential in angiogenesis. It was found that VEGF165, a key factor in angiogenesis, could effectively induce HFSCs to differentiate into endothelial cells, with the Notch signaling pathway potentially influencing this differentiation process. Additionally, in vivo experiments demonstrated that HFSCs could enhance angiogenesis by promoting host-derived neovascularization. These findings suggested that HFSCs might serve as a promising cell source for vascular tissue engineering and cell transplantation, particularly in treating ischemic diseases.
