research Melanogenesis is coupled to murine anagen: Toward new concepts for the role of melanocytes and the regulation of melanogenesis in hair growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Effects of Visible Light on the Skin†
Visible light can damage skin and most sunscreens don't block it well; more research is needed on its effects and protection methods.
research Melatonin: A Cutaneous Perspective on its Production, Metabolism, and Functions
Melatonin may benefit skin health and could be a promising treatment in dermatology.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
research Hair cycle and hair pigmentation: dynamic interactions and changes associated with aging
As people age, their hair follicles produce less pigment, leading to gray and white hair, due to factors like reduced enzyme activity and damage to melanocyte DNA.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research Hair Growth Cycle Affects Hair Follicle Destruction by Ruby Laser Pulses
Ruby laser pulses best destroy hair follicles during the growth phase and effectiveness varies with laser intensity; melanin is key for targeting, and timing treatments can improve results.
research Physiological changes in the skin during pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause skin pigmentation, stretch marks, and changes in hair, nails, and sweat glands, with most resolving after birth.
research Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research Age-induced hair greying - the multiple effects of oxidative stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research Apoptosis and cutaneous biology
Apoptosis is crucial for healthy skin and treating skin diseases.
research Application of multiphoton microscopy in dermatological studies: A mini-review
Multiphoton microscopy is a promising tool for detailed skin imaging and could improve patient care if its challenges are addressed.
research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Development in Engineered Skin Substitutes
Engineered skin substitutes can grow hair but have limitations like missing sebaceous glands and hair not breaking through the skin naturally.
research Objective outcome measures: Collecting meaningful data on alopecia areata
The document suggests using standardized methods to track and measure hair loss in alopecia areata, including patient self-assessment and a 50% improvement in specific scores as a treatment goal.
research A Nonrandomized study of trichoscopy patterns using nonpolarized (contact) and polarized (noncontact) dermatoscopy in hair and shaft disorders
Polarized dermoscopy is slightly better than nonpolarized for diagnosing hair disorders, with each method having its own strengths.
research HAIR-ROOT ADAPTATION TO MARASMUS IN ANDEAN INDIAN CHILDREN
Children with marasmus have more resting hair follicles and thinner, less pigmented hair, showing long-term malnutrition.
research Melanocyte and gonad activity as potential severity modifying factors in C3H/HeJ mouse alopecia areata
Gonadal hormones significantly affect the severity of alopecia areata in mice.
research Temporal triangular alopecia: significance of trichoscopy in differential diagnosis
Trichoscopy is reliable for diagnosing Temporal Triangular Alopecia and can prevent unnecessary biopsies and wrong treatments.
research The effects of narrowbands of visible light upon some skin disorders: a review
Visible light can improve skin disorders and hair loss, but more research is needed to understand long-term effects.
research Skin diseases in consequence of endocrine alterations
Hormone imbalances can cause skin diseases, and understanding these links is important for diagnosis and treatment.
research Dermabrasion
Dermabrasion is a safe, effective way to improve skin appearance with minimal recovery time.
research Adam10 haploinsufficiency causes freckle-like macules in Hairless mice
A mutation in the Adam10 gene causes freckle-like spots on Hairless mice.
research A pair of transmembrane receptors essential for the retention and pigmentation of hair
Bmpr2 and Acvr2a receptors are crucial for hair retention and color.
research Qualitative investigation of fresh human scalp hair with full-field optical coherence tomography
Melanin density affects hair color, and this method can help in cosmetic assessments and diagnosing hair diseases.
research Functionally distinct melanocyte populations revealed by reconstitution of hair follicles in mice
Only skin melanocytes, not other types, can color hair in mice.
research Facilitation of facial prosthesis placement with tattoo markers: A clinical report
Tattoo markers help place ear prostheses easily and improve acceptance.
