Synergistic effect of Zn and Si ions on the migration, viability and gene expression of hair follicle dermal papilla cells (HHDPCs) (1/16 ZnCS extracts were used as Zn and Si ions solution. CS extracts (CS) and Zinc chloride solution (Zn) with same concentration were used as control groups). (a) The synergistic effect of Zn and Si ions on the migration of HHDPCs cells (Ruler Length = 200 μm). (b) Migration rate of HHDPCs. (c) The synergistic effect of Zn and Si ions on the viability of HHDPCs. (d) The synergistic effect of Zn and Si ions on genes (VEGF, BMP-6, KGF, HGF, PDGF-α, PDGF-β, and C-Myc) related to the hair follicle growth in HHDPCs (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001).
