Abstract
Skin regeneration, repair, and the promotion of hair growth are intricate and dynamic processes essential for preserving the overall health, functionality, and appearance of both skin and hair. These processes involve a coordinated interplay of cellular activities and molecular signaling pathways that ensure the maintenance and restoration of skin integrity and hair vitality. Recent advancements in regenerative medicine have underscored the significant role of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes as key mediators in these processes. Exosomes, emerging as a promising cell-free therapy in tissue engineering, hold substantial potential due to their ability to influence various biological functions. This review explores the mechanisms by which MSC-derived exosomes facilitate skin regeneration and repair, and hair growth, their therapeutic applications, and the future research directions in this emerging field.
