Can an in vitro hair drug model be developed using dermal papilla cells alone?

xloma.fota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

The search for hair growth drugs is hindered by the lack of in vitro models which adequately mimic the native hair follicle[1]. The in vitro organotypic model accurately reproduces hair drug responses from the hair shaft elongation of cultured hair follicles; however, these can only be maintained for 2 weeks, posing a challenge to obtain sufficient samples for comprehensive and continuous studies[2].
