RepliCel’s pre-clinical studies have demonstrated that cultured dermal sheath cup cells are capable of directly reconstituting the dermal papilla (DP) and promoting the development of mature hair follicles. During these studies, dermal sheath cup cells migrated into pre-existing hair papilla and also formed completely new hair follicles

Interesting, as opposed to Intercytex that went head-on into replicating DP cells, it seems Replicel are trying a far different strategy by building the follicle from the ground up by multiplying and injecting dermal sheath cup (DSC) cells, and it has shown to be effective in mouse model, i'd love to hear Spencer have an interview with a representative of Replicel after the completion of Phase I/II or even before!
