90-120 / 1000+ resultsresearch Reversible cutaneous hyperpigmentation and nails with white hair due to vitamin B12 deficiency.
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause skin darkening and white hair, but it's reversible.
research Melanogenesis During the Anagen-Catagen-Telogen Transformation of the Murine Hair Cycle
Hair stops producing melanin as it transitions from the growth phase to the resting phase.
research Reversible Facial Hyperpigmentation Associated With Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause facial dark spots that go away with treatment.
research Dermoscopy: A rapid bedside tool to assess monilethrix
Dermoscopy quickly and accurately diagnosed a rare hair disorder in a 12-year-old girl.
research Observation of cultured amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles by atomic force microscopy
Amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles are immature and likely don't transfer melanosomes to keratinocytes.
research ABSENCE OF H2O2 BREAKDOWN IN HUMAN HAIR MEDULLA IMPLICATIONS IN FOLLICULAR MELANOGENESIS
Human hair medulla doesn't break down hydrogen peroxide, which may affect hair color formation.
research Mutations in the Desmoglein 4 Gene Are Associated with Monilethrix-like Congenital Hypotrichosis
Mutations in the DSG4 gene can cause a rare hair disorder similar to monilethrix.
research Melanocyte Subpopulation Turnover During the Human Hair Cycle: An Immunohistochemical Study
Melanocyte activity in hair follicles is linked to the hair growth cycle, being active in growth phases and inactive in rest phases.
research Perifollicular Melanocyte Regeneration in Bullous Pemphigoid
Melanocytes can regenerate around hair follicles in bullous pemphigoid, especially in patients with darker skin.
research Mutation analysis of type II hair keratin gene in a pedigree with monilethrix
A new gene mutation is linked to monilethrix in the studied family.
research Culture of amelanotic melanocytes derived from human fetal hair follicles
Melanocytes from human fetal hair follicles were successfully cultured, showing potential for hair disease research and clinical use.
research Monilethrix: Mutational Hotspot in the Helix Termination Motif of the Human Hair Basic Keratin 6
Monilethrix severity varies and may be influenced by other genetic or environmental factors.
research Acquired Hypertrichosis Lanuginosa: A Rare Cutaneous Paraneoplastic Syndrome

research Pathologic Quiz Case: A 69-Year-Old Man With a Brown-Black Facial Papule
A rare benign skin growth called melanocytic matricoma was identified in a 69-year-old man.
research Activity evaluation of epidermo-melanin unit and dermal damage in melasma
