摘要
毛乳头细胞在毛囊形态发生、生长周期调控及维持毛发生长发育中起重要作用,并具有在体内外条件下重建毛囊的功能。同时,毛乳头细胞具有明显的成体干细胞特性。毛乳头细胞生物学特性和功能是毛囊细胞生物学研究的重要内容,可为脱发性疾病的诊治、含有毛囊等附件的全功能组织工程皮肤的构建及干细胞组织工程研究提供理论基础。
Dermal papilla cells (DPC) play an essential role in embryonic formation of hair follicles, regulation of hair growth cycle and maintenance of hair growth. It has been proved that cultured DPC have the ability to induce hair follicle regeneration in vivo and in vitro. At the same time, DPC have obvious properties of adult stem cells. Biological characteristics and functions of DPC are a focus in hair follicle cell biology research, and to study into them will provide theoretical basis for the diagnosis and treatment of hair loss, construction of tissue engineering skin with hair follicles and stem cell-based tissue engineering research.
