Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a method for regenerating hair follicles by transplanting a composition containing CD36-expressing dermal sheath cells (DSc) to a human. The composition may be prepared by sorting CD36-expressing dermal sheath cells from a hair follicle tissue by use of a cell-sorting technique along with an antibody to CD36. The composition may also contain dermal papilla cells (DPc).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for regenerating hair follicles, comprising the step of transplanting a composition comprising CD36-expressing human dermal sheath cells to human skin, wherein the hair follicles are regenerated. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said composition is prepared by a process comprising the step of sorting CD36-expressing human dermal sheath cells from a human hair follicle tissue by use of a cell sorting technique using an antibody to CD36. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein said composition further comprises human dermal papilla cells. 4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the ratio of the number of said CD36-expressing human dermal sheath cells to the number of said human dermal papilla cells is about 10:1 to 1:10. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein said composition further comprises human dermal papilla cells. 6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the ratio of the number of said CD36-expressing human dermal sheath cells to the number of said human dermal papilla cells is about 10:1 to 1:10. 7. A method for regenerating hair follicles, comprising the steps of: preparing a composition comprising CD36-expressing human dermal sheath cells; and transplanting said composition to human skin, wherein the hair follicles are regenerated. 8. The method of claim 7 , wherein said composition is prepared by a process comprising the step of sorting CD36-expressing human dermal sheath cells from a human hair follicle tissue by use of a cell sorting technique using an antibody to CD36. 9. The method of claim 8 , wherein said composition further comprises human dermal papilla cells. 10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the ratio of the number of said CD36-expressing human dermal sheath cells to the number of said human dermal papilla cells is about 10:1 to 1:10. 11. The method of claim 7 , wherein said composition further comprises human dermal papilla cells. 12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the ratio of the number of said CD36-expressing human dermal sheath cells to the number of said human dermal papilla cells is about 10:1 to 1:10.
