Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla cells are highly active mesenchymal cells isolated from the hair papilla embedded in extracellular matrix of scalp hair follicles. Dermal Papilla Cells play a significant role in controlling the hair growth cycle and production by involving in the epithelial-mesenchymal interaction of hair follicle cells. Their survival is regulated by signal transduction pathways such as ERK and Akt. These cells can be used for development and evaluation of hair growth products and identifying cell populations within the hair follicle. In addition, they can be used for in vitro screening of androgen blocking reagents since they have androgen receptors.
