Stem cells can regenerate diseased bone marrow and treat hematological conditions, but currently they can only be collected by painful bone marrow extraction and complicated cell sorting techniques. In October 15 Journal of Cell Science, Majlinda Lako and colleagues at the University of Durham, UK, show that hair follicle dermal cells can repopulate the mouse haematopoietic system (Journal of Cell Science, 115:3967–3974, October 15, 2002).
