research Tfap2b specifies an embryonic melanocyte stem cell that retains adult multi-fate potential
The gene Tfap2b is essential for creating a type of stem cell in zebrafish that can become different pigment cells.
research Topical Application of a Protein Kinase C Inhibitor Reduces Skin and Hair Pigmentation
Applying a specific inhibitor lightens skin and hair color.
research Steroidogenic factor-1 lineage origin of skin lesions in Carney complex syndrome
Skin lesions in Carney complex are likely caused by a specific group of skin cells that promote pigment production due to a genetic mutation.
research Combined melanocytic nevus presenting with scalp alopecia associated with alopecia areata: Coincidence or causal?
A man's scalp hair loss was due to a combined melanocytic nevus and alopecia areata, suggesting a possible link between the two conditions.
research Targeted therapy in melanoma
New treatments for advanced skin cancer are improving patient outcomes, but drug resistance and finding the right treatment combinations are still big challenges.
research TOPICAL IMMUNOTHERAPY IN DERMATOLOGY
Diphencyprone (DCP) is an effective treatment for severe alopecia areata and resistant warts, with some risks.
research Niche work when you can get it: collagen XVII and the melanocyte stem cell
Collagen XVII is crucial for preventing hair and pigmentation loss by maintaining melanocyte stem cells.
research 1339 Casein kinase 1 inhibition in keratinocytes enhances the migration of melanocyte precursors in the hair follicle via KitL/c-Kit signaling pathway
Blocking casein kinase 1 in skin cells can help melanocyte precursors move better, potentially helping with conditions like vitiligo or gray hair.
research Reversible Facial Hyperpigmentation Associated With Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause facial dark spots that go away with treatment.
research Effect of Sun exposure-induced ferroptosis mechanisms on pathology and potential biological processes of primary melanoma by microarray data analysis
Enhancing CD8+ T cell function to induce ferroptosis in tumor cells may help treat skin melanoma.
research Reprogramming of Aged Dermal Papilla Cells in Vitro: In Silico Insight into the Biomarkers of Hair Growth and Tissue Repair
Aging dermal papilla cells can be reprogrammed for potential hair growth and skin repair.
research Photochemical alterations in human hair. I. Artificial irradiation and investigations of hair proteins
Melanin in black hair protects it from sun damage better than light-brown hair.
research α‐Difluoromethylornithine, a polyamine inhibitor: its potential role in controlling hair growth and in cancer treatment and chemo‐prevention
DFMO may help control hair growth and treat cancer.
research 574 USPlus®Derm reinforces the stem cell niche and prolongs anagen by positively modulating dermal papilla inductivity in occipital male scalp hair follicles
USPlus®Derm may help hair growth and maintain stem cells in male pattern hair loss.
research D2-40 Expression in Primary Scarring and Nonscarring Alopecia
Most people with scarring and nonscarring hair loss show similar D2-40 levels, but some with scarring hair loss have higher levels.
research In vitro anti-melanoma activity and in vivo hair growth stimulation by Lophocereus marginatus methanol extracts
Lophocereus marginatus extracts may help treat melanoma and stimulate hair growth.
research Lentiginosis within plaques of linear atrophoderma of Moulin: a twin-spotting phenomenon?
The document suggests a rare skin condition might be caused by a genetic phenomenon.
research Spectrum of Phenotypes Associated with Human MC1R Variations
MC1R gene variations affect skin, hair color, UV sensitivity, and melanoma risk.
research Skin features in myotonic dystrophy type 1: An observational study
People with Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 are more likely to have certain skin conditions, but not more likely to get skin cancer.
research Skin disorders in Parkinson’s disease: potential biomarkers and risk factors
Certain skin conditions may indicate or increase the risk of Parkinson's disease.
research Expression and functional relevance of melatonin receptors in hair follicle biology
Melatonin receptors in hair follicles help regulate hair growth and could treat hair loss.
research Quantitative mapping of melanin in hair fibers using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy
research The color of skin: white diseases of the skin, nails, and mucosa
The document concludes that while white skin, nail, and mucosa diseases increase skin cancer risk, they are generally harmless, especially compared to darker pigmentation conditions.
research Comparison Treatment of Vitiligo by Co-culture of Melanocytes Derived from Hair Follicle with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells with and without NB-UVB
Treating vitiligo with stem cells and melanocytes from hair, along with UVB light, works better than without the light.
research Abstract LB-039: Chronic inflammation-mediated contribution of bone marrow-derived epithelial cells and hair follicle stem cells to development of cutaneous neoplasms
Bone marrow-derived cells contribute to skin tumors, suggesting new treatment targets for non-melanoma skin cancers.
research Expression of mesenchymal stem cell marker CD90 on dermal sheath cells of the anagen hair follicle in canine species
CD90 is abundantly present on stem-like cells in dog hair follicles.
research Long-term follow-up of leucoderma patients treated with transplants of autologous cultured melanocytes, ultrathin epidermal sheets and basal cell layer suspension
Transplantation is effective for stable leucoderma but not for progressive, widespread vitiligo vulgaris.
research Dermoscopy of scalp tumours: a multi‐centre study conducted by the international dermoscopy society
The study concluded that scalp tumors show different patterns based on age, gender, and tumor thickness, and emphasized the importance of early detection and scalp examinations.
research Establishment and characterization of matched immortalized human frontal and occipital scalp dermal papilla cell lines from androgenetic alopecia
Scientists created cell lines from balding patients and found that cells from the front of the scalp are more affected by hormones that cause hair loss than those from the back.
