Glossary Pluripotent Stem Cells

cells that can develop into nearly any cell type

Pluripotent Stem Cells (PSCs) are a type of stem cell that have the ability to develop into almost any cell type in the body, including skin, hair, and organ cells. This makes them incredibly valuable for medical research and regenerative medicine, as they can potentially be used to repair or replace damaged tissues and treat various conditions, including alopecia.

research Roles of Melatonin in Goat Hair Follicle Stem Cell Proliferation and Pluripotency Through Regulating the Wnt Signaling Pathway

11 citations , June 2021 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology”

This study found that melatonin may enhance goat cashmere growth by activating Wnt signaling and regulating stem cell pluripotency through mechanisms involving NOGGIN and BMP4 pathways.

research Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Hair Follicle Bulge Neural Crest Stem Cells

3 citations , August 2014 in “Cellular reprogramming”

This study found that multipotent neural crest stem cells from hair follicles require a full set of reprogramming factors for induced pluripotent stem cell induction, similar to fibroblasts.
