The invention provides an isolated dehydrated corneal tissue, comprising a full thickness corneal stroma, and substantially all, or all, of the Bowman's membrane, wherein the stroma contains cellular material. Also provided is a method to product the tissue and uses of the tissue.

According to one embodiment, a pluripotent stem cell manufacturing system includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires storage information for the storage of a sample from a donor, and surviving cell number information for the number of surviving cells contained in the sample. The processing circuitry estimates tissue stem cell number information for the number of tissue stem cells contained in the sample, based on the storage information and the surviving cell number information.

Provided is a medium composition for differentiation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell to a dermal papilla precursor cell, a differentiation method, and a use for inducing hair follicle neogenesis using the differentiated dermal papilla precursor cell. Further provided is a method for differentiating a human induced pluripotent stem cell into a dermal papilla precursor cell having hair follicle forming ability and a composition of a dermal papilla precursor cell specific differentiation medium for the above differentiation, and have effectively induced hair follicle neogenesis consisting only of human cells without conventional mouse-human hybrid hair follicles by using the human induced dermal papilla precursor cell and a human induced epidermal precursor cell obtained through the differentiation method. Human hair follicle tissue produced is expected to be useful as a therapeutic method for patients suffering from hair loss by overcoming the limitations of hair loss treatments.

The present invention relates to a composition for hair regeneration comprising a macrophage-derived extracellular vesicle mimetics, and since macrophage-derived extracellular vesicle mimetics are well absorbed into dermal papilla cells, have an excellent effect in promoting the proliferation of dermal papilla cells, as well as having an activity to increase the level of hair-induced proteins, it is excellent in the effects of proliferation of dermal papilla cells and hair increase and thus a composition comprising macrophage-derived extracellular vesicle mimetics can be provided for hair regeneration.

An application of a transgenic stem cell-derived exosome in preparing a medicament or whitening cosmetic is provided. In the present disclosure, miR-27b-3p is transfected into an epidermal stem cell, and a transgenic stem cell-derived exosome is harvested. It is experimentally verified that the exosome can inhibit the expression of PIK3R3 protein in melanocytes and the proliferation and migration of melanocytes; and safety experiments further demonstrate the safety of the exosome. Therefore, corresponding medicaments or cosmetics prepared from the exosome have excellent medicinal and cosmetic application prospects.

The present invention relates to a method for fermenting fish skin by using Aspergillus. Also provided is a use of the fermentation liquid obtained by fermenting fish skin with Aspergillus obtained from the method in inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase, inhibiting the activity of angiotensin-converting enzyme and/or improving the survival of fibroblasts.

The present invention recognizes that there exists a long felt need for reliable hair growth methods and compositions that do not suffer from side effects and limitations of current technologies, such as surgery using a subject's own hair and pharmaceutical compositions. A first aspect of the present invention is a method of making at least one three dimensional collection of cells capable of forming a functional hair follicle. A second aspect of the present invention is a product produced by the method of making at least one three dimensional collection of cells capable of forming a functional hair follicle of the present invention. A third aspect of the present invention is a method of making at least one functional hair follicle. A fourth aspect of the present invention is a product produced by the method of making at least one functional hair follicle of the present invention. A fifth aspect of the present invention is a method of hair growth in a subject using at least one three dimensional collection of cells capable of forming a functional hair follicle of the present invention. A sixth aspect of the present invention is a method of hair growth in a subject using at least one functional hair follicle of the present invention.

Provided are a hair follicle germ having excellent hair growth-related properties, a method of producing a hair follicle germ, and a method of activating cells contained in a hair follicle germ. The hair follicle germ includes: epithelial cells; mesenchymal cells; and mesenchymal stem cells. The method of producing a hair follicle germ includes co-culturing epithelial cells, mesenchymal cells, and mesenchymal stem cells to form a hair follicle germ.
