research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
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-pigmentary actions of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone--lessons from the cutaneous melanocortin system.
Alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone helps manage skin inflammation and protect against UV damage.
research Keratinocytes regulate the function of melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
research Platelet-derived growth factor regulates the proliferation and differentiation of human melanocytes in a differentiation-stage-specific manner
PDGF-BB helps young melanocytes grow but stops mature ones from growing, and it makes melanocytes more specialized.
research Histopathologic Findings of Cutaneous Hyperpigmentation in Addison Disease and Immunostain of the Melanocytic Population
The study found increased skin pigmentation and variable melanocyte density in a patient with Addison's disease.
research 42761 The elusive BAP1 mutation in pediatric melanocytic tumors
BAP1 mutations are rare in pediatric melanocytic tumors and may develop later in life.
research Inflammatory and non-melanocytic tumoral pathology of the nail
The document concludes that understanding nail anatomy is key for diagnosing nail diseases, early signs of nail melanoma may allow for less aggressive treatment, and specific genetic mutations are important in thyroid cancer prognosis and treatment.
research Incorporation of hair follicles in 3D bioprinted models of human skin
3D bioprinting can now create skin with hair-like structures for medical use.
research The Pathobiology of Skin Aging
Skin aging is a complex process influenced by various factors, leading to wrinkles and sagging, and should be considered a disease due to its health impacts.
research 591 A New 3D Skin Model Containing Autologous Immune Cells Reconstructed by Tissue Engineering
Researchers developed a 3D skin model with its own immune and blood vessel cells to better understand skin health and disease.
research Anti-aging effects of black raspberry extract on cataract, alopecia, skin whitening, and weight loss
Black raspberry extract may help with hair growth, skin whitening, and weight loss.
research Gynostemma pentaphyllum Makino extract induces hair growth and exhibits an anti‐graying effect via multiple mechanisms
Gynostemma pentaphyllum extract may help grow hair and prevent graying.
research A ‘hot’ new twist to hair biology – involvement of vanilloid receptor‐1 signaling in human hair growth control
VR1 signaling can inhibit hair growth by affecting cell processes and increasing hair growth inhibitors.
research Aesthetic surgery – pertinent papers 2002–2003
Advancements in aesthetic surgery from 2002-2003 include improved skin resurfacing, effective migraine surgery, satisfying hair transplants, alternative treatments for skin nevi, successful endoscopic midface enhancement, and safe techniques for facial rejuvenation.
research ‘Malignant melanoma microecosystem’: Immunohistopathological insights into the stromal cell phenotype
Stromal cells in melanoma promote tumor growth and spread.
research Genetics of thyroid lesions updated
RET mutation is important in familial medullary thyroid carcinoma, and BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid carcinoma is linked to more aggressive cancer and higher death rates.
research The Dermal Papilla: An Instructive Niche for Epithelial Stem and Progenitor Cells in Development and Regeneration of the Hair Follicle
The dermal papilla is crucial for hair growth and health, and understanding it could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research The melanocyte photosensory system in the human skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
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.
research THE USE OF DERMAL PAPILLA CELLS IN STUDIES OF NORMAL AND ABNORMAL HAIR FOLLICLE BIOLOGY
Dermal papilla cells are key for hair growth and could help us understand and treat hair loss.
research Gene Expression in Rat Dermal Papilla Cells: Analysis of 2529 ESTs
Rat dermal papilla cells have unique genes crucial for hair growth.
research Towards developing an organotypic model for the preclinical study and manipulation of human hair matrix-dermal papilla interactions
The study created a new model to better understand human hair growth and health.
research Perifollicular Melanocyte Regeneration in Bullous Pemphigoid
Melanocytes can regenerate around hair follicles in bullous pemphigoid, especially in patients with darker skin.
research Regulation of hair follicle development by exosomes derived from dermal papilla cells
Exosomes from dermal papilla cells can help grow hair and might treat hair loss.
research Dermal niche signaling and epidermal stem cells
Skin health and repair depend on the signals between skin stem cells and their surrounding cells.
research 1361 A novel cell surface marker for hair follicle dermal cells throughout hair morphogenesis and cycling
Researchers found that the Leptin receptor is a consistent marker for hair follicle dermal cells, which may help future hair research.
research A novel mouse model demonstrates that oncogenic melanocyte stem cells engender melanoma resembling human disease
Oncogenic melanocyte stem cells can develop into melanoma similar to human cases.
