The research found that a specific skin cell type not only triggers hair growth but also controls hair color, and that aging can lead to hair loss and color changes.
research The Hair Pigmentation Unit and Hair Graying
Hair color is due to active pigment cells in hair during growth.

research Autosomal dominant monilethrix with incomplete penetrance due to a novel KRT86 mutation in a Chinese family
research Subungual melanocytic lesions
Early subungual melanoma might be treated with less aggressive surgery because it invades the skin under the nail more slowly.
research NON-PSORALEN TREATMENT OF VITILIGO. PART II. LESS COMMONLY USED AND EXPERIMENTAL THERAPIES
