research Regeneration of Mouse Skin Melanocyte Stem Cells In Vivo and In Vitro
The research found ways to activate melanocyte stem cells for potential treatment of skin depigmentation conditions.
research On the etiology of vitiligo and gray hair
Melanocytes are destroyed by factors needed for melanin production, causing vitiligo and gray hair.
research From neural crest cells to melanocytes: cellular plasticity during development and beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Exposure to gamma-rays at the telogen phase of the hair cycle inhibits hair follicle regeneration at the anagen phase in mice
Gamma-rays exposure during the resting phase of hair growth can damage hair regeneration and color in mice.
research 1360 Fate tracing of DNA-damaged hair follicle stem cells and their seno-differentiation clearance out of the niche
Damaged hair follicle stem cells may leave the skin to help maintain youthfulness.
research 030 Impaired Glutathione Synthesis in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Niches in Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata may involve reduced antioxidant defenses in hair follicles, affecting stem cell function.
research Three Streams for the Mechanism of Hair Graying
Hair graying may be caused by stem cell depletion from stress or melanocyte damage.
research UV damage of the hair.
Excessive sun exposure damages hair, causing protein loss and color changes.
research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research Primary cicatricial alopecia associated with systemic indolent mastocytosis
Systemic mastocytosis may cause a type of hair loss called cicatricial alopecia.
research Clinical Snippets
Melanoma risk tools need improvement, certain gene mutations cause skin diseases and could be treated by targeting those mutations, skin wrinkling may relate to lung aging due to genetic factors, and oxidative stress affects hair loss but can be reduced in low oxygen.
research Herbal insights into melanin synthesis: Enhancing hair health naturally
Melanin is important for hair color, health, and UV protection.
research Senile hair graying: H 2 O 2 ‐mediated oxidative stress affects human hair color by blunting methionine sulfoxide repair
Gray hair is caused by hydrogen peroxide buildup, which damages hair color repair.
research 642 Uncovering the role of UV exposure history and genetics in determining skin sun damage
UV photography can help identify people at higher risk for skin cancer, and male pattern baldness at age 45 is linked to a higher risk of certain skin cancers.
research Meloside A Protects Dermal Papilla Cells from DHT-Induced Damage via Androgen Receptor Modulation
Meloside A may help protect hair cells from damage linked to hair loss.
research Supravenous Repigmentation of Hair Shafts in a Patient with Regrowing Alopecia Totalis: A Case Report and Hypothesis
A woman with alopecia totalis regrew dark hair in bands after using a corticosteroid ointment.
research AMPK Phosphorylates ZDHHC13 to Increase MC1R Activity and Suppress Melanomagenesis
AMPK activation may reduce melanoma risk in red-haired individuals.
research Human hair melanins: what we have learned and have not learned from mouse coat color pigmentation
We know a lot about mouse hair color, but not much about human hair color differences.
research Human long-term deregulated circadian rhythm alters regenerative properties of skin and hair precursor cells
Disrupted sleep patterns can harm skin and hair cell renewal, but melatonin might help.
research HaCaT Cell Proliferation Influenced by Melatonin
Melatonin affects skin cell growth differently based on how much and how long it's used.
research Clinical Snippets
Increased pigmentation may protect skin from UVB, new targets for skin disease treatments were identified, sunscreen ingredients don't affect hormones, TNF-α inhibitors may help diabetic wounds, and certain treatments could prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research Molecular Regulation of Melanocyte Senescence
The article concludes that while we understand a lot about how melanocytes age and how this can prevent cancer, there are still unanswered questions about certain pathways and genes involved.
research Hair follicle stem cells in the pathogenesis of the scarring process in cutaneous lupus erythematosus
Damage to hair follicle stem cells causes permanent hair loss and scarring in cutaneous lupus erythematosus.
research BH21 Segmented heterochromia with calibre change: an under-recognized sign of alopecia areata
Segmented hair color changes can indicate active alopecia areata.
research Effect of N-acetylcysteine on hair follicle changes in mouse model of cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia: histological and biochemical study
N-acetylcysteine may prevent hair loss caused by chemotherapy.
research The proteomic profile of hair damage
Bleaching hair damages protein structure, especially keratin, leading to weakened hair.
research Hyperactivation of sympathetic nerves drives depletion of melanocyte stem cells
Stress can cause hair to turn gray by depleting stem cells.
research Sox2 in the dermal papilla regulates hair follicle pigmentation
Sox2 controls hair color by affecting pigment production in hair follicles.
research Primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis presenting as pigmented papules over pinna
Pigmented papules on the ear can be a rare skin condition called cutaneous amyloidosis, treatable with topical tretinoin.
