Quantitative and qualitative secretome profiling of AD stem cells (ADSCs) from different zones of hair growth in patients with AGA were analysed. 1mm punch samples of adipose tissue associated with hair follicles, of three scalp areas (balding, non-balding and transition zone) and one periumbilical sample, were used for ADCS isolation. The ADCS secretome was analysed in conditioned media using a 41plex assay. Among the thirty-five signalling proteins analysed, the levels of VEGF, EGF, IL-6, Eotaxin, MCP-3, IFNγ-inducible Protein-10 and MIP-1α were higher in the balding zone compared with the non-balding and periumbilical zones. In contrast, MCP-1 was lowest in the balding zone in comparison to the other zones. The observed differences in the secretome suggest crosstalk between angiogenic and inflammatory processes underlying AGA etiology and may prove relevant in both the diagnosis of AGA and the application of ADSC secretome for AGA treatment.
