Because hair loss is a common concern for many individuals, potential regenerative therapies of hair follicles have been extensively researched. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are a promising avenue for hair follicle regeneration. This review explores current iPSC-based approaches and highlights their potential applications and challenges in hair restoration. The principles of iPSC technology, iPSC differentiation into hair follicle precursor cells, and potential clinical implications for hair follicle regeneration are also discussed. This overview of iPSCs and their applications aims to contribute to our understanding of their role in hair restoration and potential future therapeutic applications.
由于脱发是许多人普遍关注的问题,毛囊的潜在再生疗法已得到广泛研究。诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)是毛囊再生的一个有前景的途径。本综述探讨了当前基于iPSC的方法,并强调了它们在毛发修复中的潜在应用和挑战。还讨论了iPSC技术的原理、iPSC分化为毛囊前体细胞以及对毛囊再生的潜在临床意义。对iPSC及其应用的概述旨在促进我们对它们在毛发修复中的作用以及未来潜在治疗应用的理解。
