Hair repigmentation can indicate malignancy and should be investigated.
research Colourless side of the nude mutation: Foxn1 and hair pigmentation
Foxn1 is essential for hair pigmentation by directing pigment transfer to hair cells.
research Pathogenesis and regenerative therapy in vitiligo and alopecia areata: focus on hair follicle
Hair follicles are key to treating vitiligo and alopecia areata, but challenges exist.
research Natural Compound Isoliensinine Inhibits Stress-Induced Hair Greying by Blocking β2-Adrenoceptor
Isoliensinine, a natural compound, prevents stress-related hair greying by blocking a specific receptor on hair cells.
research Surgical Management of Leukotrichia
Surgical repigmentation can permanently restore color to white hair in vitiligo patients.
research Understanding Melanocyte Stem Cells for Disease Modeling and Regenerative Medicine Applications
Melanocyte stem cells are crucial for skin pigmentation and have potential in disease modeling and regenerative medicine.
research B-Raf and C-Raf Are Required for Melanocyte Stem Cell Self-Maintenance
B-Raf and C-Raf are essential for maintaining melanocyte stem cells to prevent hair graying.
research Lipid‐mediated signalling and melanocyte function
A sphingolipid from human placenta may help treat vitiligo by activating melanocyte stem cells.
research Spatiotemporal Labeling of Melanocytes in Mice
The research showed how melanocytes develop, move, and respond to UV light, and their stem cells' role in hair color and skin cancer risk.
research Targeted Knockout of β-Catenin in Adult Melanocyte Stem Cells Using a Mouse Line, Dct::CreERT2, Results in Disrupted Stem Cell Renewal and Pigmentation Defects
Removing β-catenin in certain stem cells causes hair whitening and pigmentation issues.
research Gene expression profiling gets to the root of human hair follicle stem cells
Human hair follicle stem cells can be isolated using specific markers for potential therapeutic use.
research Dissecting the bulge in hair regeneration
Stem cells in hair follicles are diverse and change throughout the hair cycle.
research The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Prostanoid receptors in anagen human hair follicles
Human hair follicles contain a complex network of prostanoid receptors that may influence hair growth.
research Histopathology of aging of the hair follicle
Hair becomes gray and thin as we age, and while most hair loss in older people is due to genetics, there's a chance for gray hair to regain color under certain conditions.
research Harnessing the Power of Regenerative Therapy for Vitiligo and Alopecia Areata
Regenerative therapies show promise for treating vitiligo and alopecia areata.
research Resident Stem Cell in Skin
Skin stem cells can help improve skin repair and regeneration.
research Intrinsic and Extrinsic Factors Associated with Hair Graying (Canities) and Therapeutic Potential of Plant Extracts and Phytochemicals
Plant extracts may help prevent or reverse hair graying.
research Age-Induced Hair Graying and Oxidative Stress
Gray hair is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair cells.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Pharmacologic interventions in aging hair
Minoxidil and Finasteride are effective for male baldness; more research is needed for hair aging treatments.
research Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research MicroRNA/mRNA regulatory networks in the control of skin development and regeneration
MicroRNAs are crucial for controlling skin development and healing by regulating genes.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Dermal Adipose Tissue Secretes HGF to Promote Human Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Fat under the skin releases HGF which helps hair grow and gain color.
research Hair follicle stem cells as a skin‐organizing signaling center during adult homeostasis
Hair follicle stem cells help maintain skin health and could improve skin replacement therapies.
research Dual role of laminin‑511 in regulating melanocyte migration and differentiation
Laminin-511 is essential for proper melanocyte movement and development in mice.
