Fig. 3From: TGFβ family mimetic peptide promotes proliferation of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and hair growth in C57BL/6 miceEffect of DPS-1 on hair growth-related gene expression from HDP cells. HDP cells were seeded into 6-well plates and pre-treated with indicated concentrations of DPS-1 (100 μg/ml) or tofacitinib (200 nM) for 24 h. The gene expression of hair growth-regulating factors, a WNT5A, b WIF1, c LEF1, were measured by quantitative real-time PCR using specific primers in HDP cells. GAPDH was used as an internal control. Data are presented as the mean ± SD of results from three independent experiments. p < 0.01 is present as ** and p < 0.005 is present as ***Back to article page
