Hair Regeneration Methods Using Cells Derived from Human Hair Follicles and Challenges to Overcome by Ons Ben Hamida, Moon Kyu Kim, Young Kwan Sung, Min Kyu Kim, Mi Hee Kwack

“…Epithelial stem cells derived from human hair follicles are challenging to isolate and culture, making it difficult to obtain enough cells for hair regeneration purposes. Mesenchymal stem cells and epithelial stem cells derived from human hair follicles lose their ability to form hair follicles during culture, limiting the study of hair follicle formation in vivo. …”
