Vitamin D receptor is crucial for normal hair growth and preventing hair loss.
research 705 Particulate matter induces inflammatory response in human outer root sheath cells via oxidative stress-dependent MAPK and JAK-STAT signaling pathways
Particulate matter causes inflammation in hair cells, potentially harming hair growth.
research Effect of intense pulsed light treatment on human skinin vitro: analysis of immediate effects on dermal papillae and hair follicle stem cells
Intense pulsed light treatment mainly damages pigmented hair parts but spares stem cells, allowing hair to regrow.
research Reversible hyperpigmentation of skin and nails with white hair due to vitamin B12 deficiency
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause skin and hair color changes, which can be reversed with treatment.
research Cyclic Nucleotides and the Mediation of Melatonin-induced Inhibition of Melanogenesis in Mammals
Melatonin stops melanin production after tyrosinase action, with cyclic GMP mimicking this effect.
research Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine represses hair follicle formation by inhibiting Sonic hedgehog expression in a NF-κB-independent manner
Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine delays hair growth by blocking a key protein.
research Reversible hypopigmentation of hair secondary to Vitamin B12 deficiency
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause reversible hair color loss in children.
research Discoid lupus erythematosus skin lesion distribution and characteristics in Black patients: a retrospective cohort study
Black patients with discoid lupus erythematosus have more severe skin damage and higher chances of dyspigmentation, scalp, and ear involvement.
research Ultraviolet Light-Induced Leukoderma of the Scalp Associated with Androgenetic Alopecia: Senescent Actinic Depigmentation of the Scalp
UV light causes skin color loss in bald areas; wear a cap and use sunscreen.
research Increased Number of OKT6-Positive Dendritic Cells in the Hair Follicles of Patients with Alopecia areata
Higher levels of certain immune cells in hair follicles may contribute to alopecia areata.
research Pimecrolimus increases the melanogenesis and migration of melanocytes in vitro
Pimecrolimus boosts melanin production and movement of skin pigment cells.
research Alex de la Iglesia: "Todos somos perversos"
Bcl-2 affects hair growth and pigmentation by controlling cell death.
research Sox9 regulates melanocytic fate decision of adult hair follicle stem cells
Sox9 is crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become melanocytes instead of glial cells.
research Prevalence and distribution of melanocytic naevi on the scalp: a prospective study
Moles on the scalp are more common in people with more body moles and atypical moles, but not linked to balding.
research 0961 Exploring mitochondrial dysfunction in miniaturized hair follicles: Insights into androgenetic alopecia
Miniaturized hair follicles in androgenetic alopecia show abnormal mitochondrial activity and damage.
research Etiology of cicatricial alopecias: a basic science point of view
Cicatricial alopecia may be caused by immune attacks on hair follicles, gland issues, or stem cell damage.

The patient with both scarring and non-scarring hair loss showed complex immune reactions and improved with steroid treatment.
research Alopecia in IL-10-deficient mouse pups is c-kit-dependent and can be triggered by iron deficiency
Hair loss in certain young mice is linked to a specific gene and can be caused by lack of iron.
research 509 Using the human iPSCs-derived sensory neurons re-innervated skin ex vivo model to investigate mast cell-nerve fiber cross-talk in solar elastosis
Nerve fibers may worsen mast cell activity, leading to abnormal elastic fiber buildup from sun exposure.
research Melanocortin receptors in fibroblastic cell types of the skin –in vitro and in vivo expression and functional relevance
MC-1R is present in skin cells and may help reduce inflammation.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
