November 2024 in “Journal of Translational Internal Medicine” This study explored the impact of exosomes derived from umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells on hair regrowth in 20 C57BL/6J mice with androgenetic alopecia. The mice were divided into four groups, and those treated with exosomes showed significant improvements in hair length, diameter, and follicle number compared to the model group. The exosomes reduced androgen receptor expression and increased stemness-related proteins and cell proliferation markers, with the therapeutic effect linked to the upregulation of the RAS/ERK signaling pathway. These findings suggest that these exosomes could be a promising treatment strategy for androgenetic alopecia by modulating key signaling pathways involved in hair follicle development and maintenance.
