Gelfoam(®)-histocultured whisker follicles from nestin-driven-green fluorescent protein (ND-GFP) mice produced growing pigmented and unpigmented hair shafts. Hair-shaft length increased rapidly by day 4 and continued growing until at least day 12 after which the hair-shaft length was constant. By day 63 in histoculture, the number of ND-GFP hair follicle-associated pluripotent (HAP) stem cells increased significantly and the follicles were intact. Three-dimensional Gelfoam(®) histoculture of hair follicles can provide a very long-term period for evaluating novel agents to promote hair growth.
来自巢蛋白驱动的绿色荧光蛋白(ND-GFP)小鼠的明胶海绵(®)组织培养的须毛囊产生了生长中的有色素和无色素毛干。到第4天时毛干长度迅速增加,并持续生长直至至少第12天,之后毛干长度保持恒定。在组织培养至第63天时,与ND-GFP毛囊相关的多能(HAP)干细胞数量显著增加,且毛囊完整。毛囊的三维明胶海绵(®)组织培养可为评估促进头发生长的新型药物提供非常长的时间周期。
