60-90 / 1000+ resultsresearch New frontiers in human hair follicle (neuro‐)endocrinology
Human scalp hair follicles can produce and respond to several hormones, affecting hair growth and pigmentation.
research The Three-Dimensional Human Skin Reconstruct Model: a Tool to Study Normal Skin and Melanoma Progression
3D skin models better mimic human skin and melanoma progression than older methods.
research Expression patterns of MITF during human cutaneous embryogenesis: evidence for bulge epithelial expression and persistence of dermal melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research The cell biology of human hair follicle pigmentation
We need more research on human hair follicle pigmentation, not just mouse models.
research Immunology of the Human Nail Apparatus: The Nail Matrix Is a Site of Relative Immune Privilege
The nail matrix has a reduced immune response, protecting it from autoimmunity.
research Enhanced Differentiation Potential of Pigmented Human Epidermal Equivalents
PmtHEE is a better model for studying pigmented skin because it includes melanocytes and shows improved cell differentiation.
research 576 A preliminary study of melanogenic markers in the differentiation of the human hair follicle melanin unit
The study found markers indicating that cells responsible for hair color are differentiating in specific areas of the hair follicle.
research In Vitro Culturing and Harvesting of Human Plucked Hair Follicles
Growing hair cells in the lab from plucked hairs could lead to a new, less invasive, and cheaper baldness treatment.
research The Three-Dimensional Human Skin Reconstruct Model: a Tool to Study Normal Skin and Melanoma Progression
3D human skin models better mimic real skin and melanoma progression than 2D or mouse models.
research The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Topobiology of Human Pigmentation: P-Cadherin Selectively Stimulates Hair Follicle Melanogenesis
P-cadherin is crucial for hair follicle pigmentation but not skin pigmentation.
research Artificial Pigmented Human Skin Created by Muse Cells
Researchers created artificial human skin using special cells, which could help treat skin conditions like albinism and vitiligo.
research 1250 Development of an ex vivo human skin explant model to examine candidate gene functions in the hair follicle and epidermis
The model can effectively test gene functions and drug responses in human skin.
research mTORC1 activity negatively regulates human hair follicle growth and pigmentation
High mTORC1 activity slows hair growth and causes it to lose color.
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 Loss of ‘Epidermal Melanin Unit’ Integrity in Human Skin During Melanoma-Genesis
Melanoma development can be linked to the breakdown of skin's melanin-producing units.
research Isolating Dermal Papilla Cells from Human Hair Follicles Using Microdissection and Enzyme Digestion
The method successfully isolates cells that are important for hair growth and could help study hair loss.
research 176 Characterising Neurotransmitter Signalling in Human Skin and Hair Follicles
Skin and hair cells release serotonin and histamine naturally, which could help improve skin health.
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 The distributions of type IV collagen .ALPHA. chains in basement membranes of human epidermis and skin appendages
Type IV collagen chains vary in different parts of human skin, with specific patterns linked to melanocytes.
research 487 Exploring ribosomal RNA modifications and corresponding snoRNAs in human skin cell senescence
Understanding snoRNA regulation may help slow skin aging.
