Method for Regenerating Hair Follicles Using CD36-Expressing Dermal Sheath Cells

摘要

Provided is a method for regenerating hair follicles by transplanting a composition containing CD36-expressing dermal sheath cells (DSc) to a human. The composition may be prepared by sorting CD36-expressing dermal sheath cells from a hair follicle tissue by use of a cell-sorting technique along with an antibody to CD36. The composition may also contain dermal papilla cells (DPc).
