Development of hair follicle spheroids with growth factor transfection and various cell combinations

As the number of hair loss patients increases, research conducted on hair follicles and hair has recently become more active. However, most current hair follicle research models are limited in their ability to reproduce several key functions of the hair follicle microenvironment. To solve this problem, hair growth genes were injected into hair follicle cells, and long-term culture was performed for up to 90 days. DPCs (dermal papilla cells), KCs (keratinocytes), HUVECs (human umbilical vein...
