3D scaffold free micro-hair follicle: µ-HF
Elisa Caviola, PhD, VitroScreen Senior Scientist, will contribute to the scientific program of the 9° Edition of the Journées Jean-Paul Marty organized by the French Society of Cosmetology (SFC) in Paris 4 & 5 th December with a presentation entitled ‘A forced involution 3D scaffold free micro-hair follicle (µHF) model to test FGF18 peptide mimetics’.
The talk will describe the multiple applications of this innovative in vitro dermo papilla model in the identification and screening of new molecules: in particular the results of peptide mimetics on a forced involution model will be presented elucidating the molecular mechanism underlying the quiescence state of HF.
