Hair color loss can indicate the effectiveness of a drug targeting the KIT protein in mice and humans.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research CD133-positive dermal papilla-derived Wnt ligands regulate postnatal hair growth
Wnt proteins from certain skin cells are crucial for normal hair growth and renewal.
research Langerhans' cells in hair follicles of the depigmenting C57Bl/Ler-vit.vit mouse. A model for human vitiligo
Langerhans' cells are not responsible for depigmentation in this mouse model.
research Somatic mutations distinguish melanocyte subpopulations in human skin
Hair follicles protect melanocytes from sun damage, helping them replenish skin.
research Establishment and Functional Characterization of Immortalized Rabbit Dermal Papilla Cell Lines
Researchers created a stable rabbit cell line for hair research that doesn't age quickly or become cancerous.
research Leukotrichia Developed Following Application of Intense Pulsed Light for Hair Removal
Some people's hair turned white or gray after using intense pulsed light for hair removal, and for some, it was permanent.
research Spermidine Promotes Human Hair Growth and Is a Novel Modulator of Human Epithelial Stem Cell Functions
Spermidine may help reduce hair loss and deserves further testing as a treatment.
research Hair development and Langerhans cell migration during human embryogenesis
Langerhans cells and melanocytes migrate to the skin and hair follicles during early human development.
research Histopathological Study of Epithelial, Melanocytic And Adnexal Tumors Of Skin- A Retrospective Study In A Tertiary Care Centre
Most skin tumors in the study were benign, with squamous cell carcinoma being the most common malignant type.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Hair follicles and their role in skin health
Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.
research Hair Coloration by Gene Regulation: Fact or Fiction?
Gene regulation could revolutionize hair color by altering pigmentation from within.
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 Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activates melanocyte stem cells in vitro and in vivo
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway can activate melanocyte stem cells and may help regenerate hair follicles.
research From neural crest cells to melanocytes: cellular plasticity during development and beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
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 Human Epidermal Neural Crest Stem Cells (hEPI-NCSC)—Characterization and Directed Differentiation into Osteocytes and Melanocytes
Human epidermal neural crest stem cells can become bone and skin pigment cells, making them useful for therapies.
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 How the stress of fight or flight turns hair white
Stress turns hair white by depleting color-giving cells in hair follicles through a specific neurotransmitter related to the body's stress response.
research Stem Cells of the Hair Follicular Tissue: Application in Cell Based Therapy for Vitiligo
Hair follicle stem cells could be used to treat the skin condition vitiligo.
research MOF-mediated histone H4 Lysine 16 acetylation governs mitochondrial and ciliary functions by controlling gene promoters
MOF controls key genes for skin development by regulating mitochondrial and ciliary functions.
