Functional complexity of hair follicle stem cell niche and therapeutic targeting of niche dysfunction for hair regeneration

Abstract Stem cell activity is subject to non-cell-autonomous regulation from the local microenvironment, or niche. In adaption to varying physiological conditions and the ever-changing external environment, the stem cell niche has evolved with multifunctionality that enables stem cells to detect th...
