Abstrakt: Dermal sheath (DS) is located at the outermost border of hair follicles, comprising the connective tissue sheath of these follicles; DS cells are known to contribute to hair cycling and follicle neogenesis. However, the mechanisms by which DS cells contribute to hair formation are currently unclear. We investigated the global transcriptional profile of human DS cells in early passaged culture, compared with those of human dermal papilla cells (DP cells) and dermal fibroblasts. Vascular related genes were highly expressed in DS cells, and expression of the multi-ligand receptor, CD36, was significantly higher in DS cells than in DP cells. Further analyses with whole-mount imaging technique showed that dense networks of blood capillaries were formed in the DS of human anagen hair follicles, whereas regression of blood capillaries was observed in telogen and catagen hair follicles. We found that CD36-expressing cells were present in populations of DS cells, but were rarely observed in populations of DP cells and fibroblasts. Furthermore, our results indicated that CD36-expressing DS cells may participate in angiogenesis. Therefore, we concluded that CD36-expressing DS cells may modulate blood capillaries in hair follicles, in association with hair cycling.
