Abstract
AbstractHuman hair follicles were isolated from the scalp by dispase and collagenase treatment and dispersed into a cell suspension by trypsin. These cells proliferated well and could be subcultured 7 to 8 times. The medium used was MCDB 153 HAA medium further supplemented with some amino acids, hydrocortisone, insulin, EGF, and bovine brain extract. The concentration of Ca++ was adjusted to 0.1 mM. Immunohistochemically, these cells were proved to possess keratins specific to hair forming cells.
