research 1372 Biological effects of electrical epilation on human hair follicles and perifollicular skin ex vivo
Electrical epilation damages hair follicles and surrounding skin, likely preventing hair regrowth.
research Sex Identification of Feather Color in Geese and the Expression of Melanin in Embryonic Dorsal Skin Feather Follicles
Female goslings have darker feathers than males due to more melanin.
research ERK1/2 Pathway Is Involved in the Enhancement of Fatty Acids from Phaeodactylum tricornutum Extract (PTE) on Hair Follicle Cell Proliferation
Phaeodactylum tricornutum extract helps hair follicle cells grow by activating the ERK1/2 pathway.
research Biology of melanocytes in mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Biocompatible exosomes derived from Pinctada martensii mucus for therapeutic melanin regulation via α-MSH/NF-κB/MITF pathway
Exosomes from Pinctada martensii mucus can safely reduce melanin production, offering a new treatment for skin pigment issues.
research Antioxidants in dermatology
Antioxidants can benefit skin health but should be used carefully to avoid negative effects.
research Distribution of Glycolipid and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Human Hair
Human hair has more unsaturated fats inside than on the surface, and certain lipids may help bind the outer and inner layers together.
research Synergistic effect of rice bran extract and extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields on dermal papilla/melanocytes in melanogenesis
Rice bran extract and low-frequency electromagnetic fields together may help treat vitiligo and white hair.
research Melatonin in the skin: synthesis, metabolism and functions
Melatonin in the skin helps protect against damage from stress and UV rays, and could be used to treat certain skin conditions.
research LPA-producing enzyme PA-PLA1α regulates hair follicle development by modulating EGFR signalling
The enzyme PA-PLA1α is important for proper hair follicle development.
research Melanocytes: The new Black
Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.
research The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Chronic Restraint Stress Inhibits Hair Growth via Substance P Mediated by Reactive Oxygen Species in Mice
Chronic stress can cause hair loss by increasing oxidative stress, but antioxidants may help.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Vitiligo
Vitiligo causes white skin patches and is linked to autoimmune issues.
research Topical liposome delivery of molecules to hair follicles in mice
Liposomes can safely and effectively deliver substances to mouse hair follicles, potentially useful for human hair treatments.
research Keratinocytes regulate the function of melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
research Profiling the Response of Human Hair Follicles to Ultraviolet Radiation
UVB radiation harms hair growth and health, causing cell death and other changes in human hair follicles.
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 Chronic Stress Suppresses the Expression of Cutaneous Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenocortical Axis Elements and Melanogenesis
Chronic stress can reduce skin pigmentation.
research Effect of Adenovirus-Mediated Expression of Sonic Hedgehog Gene on Hair Regrowth in Mice With Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Using a gene therapy with the Sonic Hedgehog gene helps mice regrow hair faster after losing it from chemotherapy.
research Age-related hair changes in men: Mechanisms and management of alopecia and graying
Men's hair loss is caused by hormones and genes, and can be treated with medication and surgery, while graying is due to aging and has no prevention except dyeing.
research Therapeutic Potential of Patient iPSC-Derived iMelanocytes in Autologous Transplantation
Patient-derived melanocytes can potentially treat vitiligo by restoring skin pigmentation.
research Systematically optimized coenzyme q10-loaded novel proniosomal formulation for treatment of photo-induced aging in mice: characterization, biocompatibility studies, biochemical estimations and anti-aging evaluation
The new CoQ10 gel protects mouse skin better against aging from UV light than the old gel.
research Critical Role of ATP-P2X7 Axis in UV-Induced Melanogenesis
ATP increases melanin production in skin after UV exposure, with the P2X7 receptor being crucial for this process.
research Mechanisms of repigmentation induced by photobiomodulation therapy in vitiligo
Light therapy using helium-neon lasers can help restore skin color in vitiligo by promoting skin cell growth and movement.
research An Update on Drug-Induced Pigmentation
Some drugs can cause skin and hair color changes, often reversible when the drug is stopped.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research Influence of Oxidative and/or Reductive Treatment on Human Hair (I): Analysis of Hair-Damage after Oxidative and/or Reductive Treatment
Chemical treatments and daily stresses damage hair, especially the cuticle layer.
