Abstract

Skin-derived precursors (SKPs) have been shown recently to be capable of inducing hair genesis and hair follicle regeneration. Here, we describe a protocol for SKP isolation and culture based on our experience and previous publications.

Keywords: Cultivation; Isolation; SKPs; Skin-derived precursor.
