AMPK activation may reduce melanoma risk in red-haired individuals.
research The ‘melanocyte-keratin’ mystery revisited: neither normal human epidermal nor hair follicle melanocytes express keratin 16 or keratin 6in situ
Human melanocytes in skin and hair follicles don't express keratin 16 or 6 naturally.
research TERT/BMI1-transgenic human dermal papilla cells enhance murine hair follicle formation in vivo
Adding TERT and BMI1 to certain skin cells can improve their ability to create hair follicles in mice.
research Melan-A Positive cells significantly expressed in immune-targeted follicles of Alopecia Areata
Melanocytes may trigger the immune response in alopecia areata, affecting hair regrowth.

research 554 Repurposing a clinical antimalarial for the therapeutic induction of lethal ER stress targeting BRAF-kinase inhibitor-resistant malignant melanoma
Mefloquine, an antimalarial drug, is effective in killing melanoma cells resistant to other treatments by causing lethal stress in the cells.
research Dopa oxidase activity in the hair, skin and ocular melanocytes is increased in the presence of stressed fibroblasts
Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.
