This technology describes techniques for measuring cell proliferation or for measuring secretion of collagenolytic factors, incorporating a threedimensional hair follicle culture system. Collagenolytic activity is essential for downgrowth of hair follicles during anagen. One described method measures the effects of a growth factor or pharmaceutical compound on cell proliferation, utilizing the incorporation of tritiated thymidine into DNA of cultured hair follicles. Also described is a method to measure the effect of growth factors on the release of collagenolytic factors, utilizing tritiated collagen or a fluorescent marker. Applications: Assays for screening drugs or growth factors that may stimulate hair growth; Assays measuring the DNA synthesis and collagenasesecreting activity of hair follicles. Market: An estimated 40 million men and 20 million women suffer from hair loss; The market size for hair restoration procedures in the United States is approximately $800 million. Inventor: Stuart H. Yuspa (NCI). Publications: 1. G Rogers, N Martinet, P Steinert, P Wynn, D Roop, A Kilkenny, D Morgan, SH Yuspa. Cultivation of murine hair follicles as organoids in a collagen matrix.
