January 2021 in “Experimental Dermatology” This review discusses recent advancements in generating appendage-bearing skin organoids from pluripotent stem cells and their potential applications in dermatological research, but reports no new clinical results.
June 2026 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” This review outlines the transition from simple hair follicle organoids to immune-competent microphysiological systems, addressing limitations in replicating native hair follicle immune features and discussing their applications in disease modeling and regenerative medicine.
January 2024 in “Journal of tissue engineering” In this study, researchers used a human skin organoid model to show that solar UV exposure damages hair follicles and skin, while exosomes from mesenchymal stem cells reduced inflammation and supported hair follicle regeneration.
January 2026 in “Wound Repair and Regeneration” This review summarizes the latest progress and challenges in skin organoid research, emphasizing advancements in organoid construction, applications in disease modeling, and factors affecting tissue maturation, while noting barriers such as vascularization and neural integration that hinder clinical translation.
April 2026 in “Journal of Dermatological Science” This study highlights that hair-bearing organoids derived from embryonic stem cells can effectively model androgenic alopecia conditions and test the efficacy of anti-hair loss treatments.
