Functional regeneration strategies of hair follicles: advances and challenges

Stem Cell Research & Therapy
Hair follicles are essential appendages of human skin that function in protection, sensation, thermoregulation and social interactions. The multicellular components, particularly the dermal papilla, matrix and bulge housing stem cells, enable cyclic hair
