March 2022 in “Indian Journal of Animal Research” In this study, canine hair follicle stem cells were shown to be multipotent, capable of differentiating into various cell types like adipocytes in vitro.
May 2020 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that hair follicle stem cells, when transplanted in a rat model of ischaemic stroke, migrated to affected areas, expressed neuron-specific markers, and reduced infarct volume, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits.
April 2020 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In this study, researchers found that in growing skin tissue, epidermal wound healing occurs at the expense of normal skin development, as it impairs hair follicle growth and does not activate tissue morphogenesis genes.
January 2020 in “Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies” This study found that canine hair follicle stem cells are located in the isthmus/bulge region of the hair follicle, surrounded by telocytes.
December 2012 in “Journal of dermatological science” This study observed that Langerhans cells and melanocytes migrated to hair follicle sites during human embryogenesis, suggesting that Langerhans cells acquire immunoregulatory properties there.
