Poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis is linked to skin cell differentiation.
research Effects of SLC45A2 and GPNMB on Melanin Deposition Based on Transcriptome Sequencing in Chicken Feather Follicles
SLC45A2 and GPNMB genes help control chicken feather color by promoting melanin.
research Pigmented Casts
Pigmented casts are common in several hair loss conditions and can help diagnose specific types of alopecia.
research Identification of differentially expressed Gnαs and Gnα11 in sheep ( Ovis aries ) skins associated with white and black coat colors
Black sheep have higher levels of Gnαs and Gnα11 proteins, which may affect their coat color.
research Morphologic comparison of cultured human epidermis melanocytes,amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles and mouse melanoma cells observed by atomic force microscope
