research Melanin Light Absorption as the Necessary but Not Sufficient Condition for Photoepilation: Miniaturization and Eclipse Phenomena
Melanin absorbing light is necessary but not enough for effective hair removal by light treatment.
research EFFECTS OF α-MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONE AND [8-ARGININE]-VASOTOCIN UPON MELANOGENESIS IN HAIR FOLLICLE MELANOCYTES IN VITRO
α-MSH increases melanin production in moulting hair follicles, while AVT inhibits it.
research Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei in women
Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei can also affect women, though it's rare.

research Nestin is expressed in HMB‐45 negative melanoma cells in dermal parts of nodular melanoma
Nestin helps identify certain melanoma cells in nodular melanoma.
research Coming of Age of Melanogenesis-Related Proteins
Tyrosinase and gp100 proteins can help diagnose and treat melanoma.
research Melan-A Positive cells significantly expressed in immune-targeted follicles of Alopecia Areata
Melanocytes may trigger the immune response in alopecia areata, affecting hair regrowth.
research ONKOLOGIA OKULISTYCZNA WCZORAJ I DZIŚ
Uveal melanoma is hard to treat when it spreads, but a new drug, tebentafusp, helps patients live longer.
research Transgneic Endothelin 3 Regulates Murine Pigment Production and Coat Color
The gene Endothelin 3 makes mice's fur darker by increasing pigment cells and pigment levels.
research Interaction between stem cell factor and endothelin-1: effects on melanogenesis in human skin xenografts
SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.
research Detection of Functionally Active Melanocortin Receptors and Evidence for an Immunoregulatory Activity of α-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
αMSH may help regulate immune responses in hair follicles and its disruption could lead to hair loss.
research Role of Dermal Factors Involved in Regulating the Melanin and Melanogenesis of Mammalian Melanocytes in Normal and Abnormal Skin
Dermal factors are crucial in regulating melanin production in skin.
research Scalp melanoma: Distinctive high risk clinical and histological features
Scalp melanomas are more dangerous and often missed, needing earlier detection.
research An in vivo method for the detection of somatic mutations at the cellular level in mice
A new method can detect mutations in mice by observing changes in hair follicle cells.
research Transplantation of melanocyte stem cells in vitiliginous skin
Transplanting melanocyte stem cells from hair follicles can effectively treat vitiligo.
research Receptor tyrosine kinase Kit action in skin melanocytes: is it exclusively cell autonomous?
KIT's role in skin cells is not entirely independent, as other cells can influence its function.
research Disseminated Nonsegmental Vitiligo Associated With Halo Nevi and Premature Gray Hair
A rare combination of halo nevi, nonsegmental vitiligo, and early gray hair can occur together.
research Eyebrow Pilomatrixoma Presenting With Localized Alopecia and Skin Hypopigmentation
A pilomatrixoma in the eyebrow can cause hair loss and skin lightening.
research Melanocytes: A possible autoimmune target in alopecia areata
Melanocytes might be targeted by the immune system in people with alopecia areata, but more research is needed.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth.
Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling controls hair pigmentation by means of cross-talk with the melanocortin receptor-1 pathway
BMP signaling affects hair color by interacting with the MC-1R pathway.
research 014 Non-melanoma skin cancer in skin of color: Cases of mistaken identity
Non-melanoma skin cancer in darker-skinned people can be misdiagnosed, so doctors need to be more aware to diagnose it correctly and early.
research CD34 defines melanocyte stem cell subpopulations with distinct regenerative properties
CD34+ and CD34- melanocyte stem cells have different regenerative abilities.
research Diagnostic utility of preferentially expressed antigen in melanoma immunohistochemistry in the evaluation of melanomas with a co-existent nevoid melanocytic population: A single-center retrospective cohort study
PRAME helps distinguish between benign and malignant skin cells in most cases.
research Melanocyte Chitosan/Gelatin Composite Fabrication with Human Outer Root Sheath-Derived Cells to Produce Pigment
The technique can isolate cells to help treat skin pigmentation issues.
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 Decreased benzothiazole-type pheomelanin in regrown brown hair in alopecia areata
The girl's regrown brown hair had less of certain pigments than her original black hair.
research Merkel cell differentiation in trichoblastoma
Trichoblastomas may mimic fetal skin development by having many Merkel cells, unlike adult skin.
research The ‘melanocyte-keratin’ mystery revisited: neither normal human epidermal nor hair follicle melanocytes express keratin 16 or keratin 6in situ
Human melanocytes in skin and hair follicles don't express keratin 16 or 6 naturally.
