Patent ID: 11629331

Abstract:
Provided is a medium composition for differentiation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell to a dermal papilla precursor cell, a differentiation method, and a use for inducing hair follicle neogenesis using the differentiated dermal papilla precursor cell. Further provided is a method for differentiating a human induced pluripotent stem cell into a dermal papilla precursor cell having hair follicle forming ability and a composition of a dermal papilla precursor cell specific differentiation medium for the above differentiation, and have effectively induced hair follicle neogenesis consisting only of human cells without conventional mouse-human hybrid hair follicles by using the human induced dermal papilla precursor cell and a human induced epidermal precursor cell obtained through the differentiation method. Human hair follicle tissue produced is expected to be useful as a therapeutic method for patients suffering from hair loss by overcoming the limitations of hair loss treatments.
