Sphingomonas olei Extracellular Vesicles Promote Hair‐Growth Responses Linked to Wnt/β‐Catenin Signalling
Eunyoung Seo, Minji Park, Chaeeun Lee, Bo Mi Kang, Jang‐Hee Oh, Yoon‐Woo Noh, Won‐Woo Choi · Experimental Dermatology 35, e70284
A study involving CutisBio researchers examined an EV-enriched preparation from Sphingomonas olei (SoEVs). Human dermal papilla cells showed changes in growth-related genes and Wnt/β-catenin-associated readouts; cultured human follicles showed hair shaft elongation and relative maintenance of thickness. The findings do not establish mechanistic causation or clinical efficacy of a finished product.
