October 2020 in “Stem cell research & therapy” This study found that DNMT1 promotes adipogenesis in hair follicle stem cells by regulating the miR-214-3p/MAPK1/p-ERK1/2 pathway, suggesting potential applications in stem cell therapy.
In this study, hair follicle neural crest stem cell-derived exosomes, especially those overexpressing miR-214-3p, significantly promoted axon extension and nerve regeneration in both in vitro and in vivo models, suggesting a promising therapeutic strategy for peripheral nerve injuries.

September 2022 in “International journal of molecular sciences” This study identified and analyzed numerous lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs involved in hair follicle development in cashmere goats, highlighting key regulatory pathways and suggesting roles for specific RNAs in enhancing hair follicle cell proliferation.
Developing microRNA-based treatments is hard but has potential.
This study found that exosomes derived from hair follicle neural crest stem cells significantly promoted nerve regeneration in injured neurons, particularly when overexpressing miR-214-3p, which enhanced axon extension and motor function recovery in both in vitro and in vivo models.
