a Hair follicles of the KO and control group are obtained from skin tissue. b Dermal papilla cells are isolated and purified with a cloning loop. c The isolated dermal papilla cells were subjected to immunofluorescence staining. The positive α-SMA proved to be a dermal papilla cell, and CD133- positive proved that the cell was in the growth phase. d Changes in the relative expression levels of AR and DKK1 genes in DPCs of KO and the control group after the addition of DHT, finasteride, and DMSO, respectively. e Changes in the relative protein levels of AR and β-catenin in DPCs of KO and the control group after the addition of DHT, finasteride, and DMSO, respectively.
