A cure for hair loss? Scientists grow hair on rats using stem cells – and they say the treatment could work on humans too
Greetings,
A cure for hair loss? Scientists grow hair on rats using stem cells – and they say the treatment could work on humans too
Achievement made after coaxing stem cells to become papilla cells
Dermal papilla is a special type of cell which is vital to follicle formation
It could provide an unlimited source of cells for hair transplant procedures

Finding a cure for baldness has become the holy grail for scientists the world over.
Now researchers in Orlando have come a step closer to a natural treatment after successfully growing new hair using human stem cells.
The breakthrough was achieved after coaxing stem cells to become dermal papilla cells – a special type of cell which is vital to follicle formation.
Dermal papilla cells make up the top two layers of skin and they cause surrounding cells to form hair follicles. Hair loss occurs when papillae stop working.
Scientists have previously attempted isolating healthy dermal papillae from a hair follicle, putting them into a culture to increase their number, and placing the new papillae into the skin.
The problem with this technique is that human dermal papillae lose their ability to stimulate hair growth when they are multiplied.
‘In adults, dermal papilla cells cannot be readily amplified outside of the body and they quickly lose their hair-inducing properties,’ said Alexey Terskikh, an associate professor at Sanford-Burnham….More Here
