150-180 / 1000+ resultsresearch Melasma, a photoaging disorder
Melasma is now considered a skin aging disorder caused by sun exposure in people with a genetic tendency, which impacts treatment and prevention approaches.
research Reversible Facial Hyperpigmentation Associated With Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause facial dark spots that go away with treatment.
research Flexural Agminated Eruptive Nevi in Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
Sunlight exposure improved a patient's skin condition, and there may be a link between a certain disease and skin growths; a leukemia treatment caused changes in hair color and growth.
research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research 1233 Exploring the role of melanocyte subpopulations in vitiligo
A specific group of early-stage melanocytes is reduced in vitiligo-affected skin, which may explain treatment resistance.
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 1379 Cell of origin contributes to the melanoma diversity
Different types of stem cells in the skin contribute to the variety of melanoma forms.
research Subclinical speckled perifollicular melanosis of the scalp.
The scalp has a natural speckled pattern of increased pigment around hair follicles, possibly linked to local hormone production.
research Melanocyte stem cells in the skin: Origin, biological characteristics, homeostatic maintenance and therapeutic potential
Melanocyte stem cells are vital for skin and hair color and have potential in treating skin disorders and cancer.
research Melanocortin receptor type 2 (MC2R, ACTH receptor) expression in patients with alopecia areata
Lower MC2R expression may contribute to alopecia areata.
research Melanocyte progenitor cells reside in human subcutaneous adipose tissue
Melanocyte progenitor cells are found in human fat tissue and can become mature melanocytes, which may help treat skin issues.
research Early skin seeding regulatory T cells modulate PPARγ-dependent skin pigmentation
Early regulatory T cells are crucial for normal skin pigmentation.
research Permanent Makeup Removal Severe Complication—Case Report and Proposal of the Protocol for Its Management
Permanent makeup can cause delayed allergic reactions, but they can be managed with proper treatment.
research 509 Using the human iPSCs-derived sensory neurons re-innervated skin ex vivo model to investigate mast cell-nerve fiber cross-talk in solar elastosis
Nerve fibers may worsen mast cell activity, leading to abnormal elastic fiber buildup from sun exposure.
research Sulfur Containing Tyrosine Analogs Can Cause Selective Melanocytotoxicity Involving Tyrosinase-Mediated Apoptosis
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Endothelin-1 combined with extracellular matrix proteins promotes the adhesion and chemotaxis of amelanotic melanocytes from human hair follicles in vitro
Endothelin-1 helps amelanotic melanocytes stick and move better on certain proteins.
research Dissecting the boundary of quiescence and activation of murine melanocyte stem cells in the hair follicle niche
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key to understanding and potentially preventing hair graying.
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 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 Survival of patchwork melanoblasts is dependent upon their number in the hair follicle at the end of embryogenesis
More melanoblasts in hair follicles mean better survival and proper hair pigmentation.
research A human serum‐enriched medium formulation supports high viability and marker expression in primary melanocyte cultures from the outer root sheath and epidermis
A human serum-enriched medium effectively supports melanocyte growth and activity without using animal-derived supplements.
research Proopiomelanocortin expression in the skin during induced hair growth in mice
