May 2018 in “Experimental Dermatology” The conclusion is that future hair loss treatments should target the root causes of hair thinning, not just promote hair growth.
8 citations,
May 2019 in “Journal of Stem Cells & Regenerative Medicine” Dental pulp stem cells are better for tissue repair, while fat tissue stem cells may be more suited for wound healing and hair growth.
24 citations,
April 2012 in “Developmental Biology” Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase.
