Abstract:
Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is the most prominent type of progressive hair loss in humans.At present, medication is the main treatment for AGA, however, drug therapy has significant side-effects. Stem cells provide a new strategy for the treatment of AGA, because of their role in tissue repair and maintenance of microenvironmental homeostasis.This paper reviews the pathogenesis of AGA, discusses the defects of traditional drug therapy,and discusses the research progress of stem cells and stem cell derivatives in the treatment of AGA, in order to provide a comprehensive review of the prospects of stem cell therapy for AGA.
