A man had rare skin tumors with bone formation and cholesterol deposits.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research Gain‐of‐function variants in the ODC1 gene cause a syndromic neurodevelopmental disorder associated with macrocephaly, alopecia, dysmorphic features, and neuroimaging abnormalities
ODC1 gene mutations cause a neurodevelopmental disorder with large head size, hair loss, and facial abnormalities.
research Stem cell factor combined with matrix proteins promotes attachment and migration of amelanotic melanocyte from human follicle hair
Stem cell factor and certain proteins help melanocytes from hair follicles move and attach better, aiding vitiligo repigmentation.
