September 2014 in “Tissue engineering. Part A” This study found that a 3D Matrigel culture technique for dermal papilla cell spheroids can enhance hair follicle inductivity and induce hair-like fiber differentiation in vitro, even with high-passage cells.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that in laboratory settings, dermal papilla cells cultured as spheroids showed significantly higher hair inductive potential and angiogenic factor expression compared to monolayer cultures.
