Aging hair follicles rejuvenated by transplantation to a young subcutaneous environment

Abstract: We demonstrate in the present study that young host mice rejuvenate aged hair follicles after transplantation. Young mice promote the hair shaft growth of transplanted old hair follicles, as well as young follicles, in contrast to old host mice, which did not support hair-shaft growth from transplanted old or young follicles. Nestin-expressing hair follicle-associated pluripotent (HAP) stem cells of transplanted old and young hair follicles remained active in young host nude mice. In contrast, the nestin-expre… Show more

“…A new focus has arisen around the role of the hair follicle environment in hair ageing. 64,65 A study by Cao et al 66 used mice to transplant hair follicles from an old tissue environment to a young one and showed that some molecular processes could be reversed. Due to our lifespan, ageing studies in humans are more complicated and data are rather 67,68 Further research should focus on discerning the differences between hair ageing and androgenetic alopecia, which are commonly confused.…”

“…The study further revealed follistatin as an extracellular factor capable of inducing hair growth . Transplantation of hair follicle‐associated pluripotent, nestin‐expressing stem cells from aged mice to young mice displayed higher activity than those transplanted onto another aged mice, suggesting that they are involved in the follicular aging process which can be reversible …”

“…As activation of HFSCs is closely associated with their niche, extrinsic mechanisms also play important roles in HFSC aging. Several studies have demonstrated functional recovery of aged HFSCs relative to young HFSCs after their transplantation into the skin of a young mouse both in vivo and in vitro ( 88 - 91 ). Although the extrinsic mechanisms driving HFSC aging have not been clarified yet, several studies have shown the influence of extrinsic factors on HFSC aging.…”
