Recently, stem cells discovered in the bulge region of the outer root sheath (ORS) are found to be able to induce the anagen phase in the hair follicle cycle. In an attempt to research for growth-promoting agents for the ORS cells, some studied the effect of various botanical extracts on the growth of cultured human hair follicles. Among the studies conducted, Laminaria angustata extract was found to be able to increase the ORS cell growth. Further, hair-growth in the shaved skin of C3H mice was also promoted by the topical application of the extract. "
