January 2023 in “Cell proliferation” This study reported that supplementing rat hair follicle stem cells with chick embryo extract enhanced their migration and proliferation, possibly promoting differentiation toward Schwann cells.
January 2026 in “Mendeley Data” This dataset supports a study suggesting that hair follicle neural crest stem cell-derived exosomes carrying miR-214-3p may promote neurite outgrowth and aid peripheral nerve regeneration in vitro and in vivo.

July 2016 in “Livestock science” This study suggests that nerve growth factor may support hair follicle growth in Liaoning cashmere goats through pathways involving its receptor, TrkA, particularly during the anagen phase.
August 2026 in “Mendeley Data” This review systematically assembles recent insights into the use of hair follicle neural crest stem cells and their exosomes for peripheral nerve injury repair, highlighting molecular mechanisms and possible translational applications, with comprehensive tables and diagrams summarizing existing literature.
