research Histomorphological study on the teat (mammary papilla) of Indian buffalo
The Indian buffalo teat has a melanin-rich epidermis, no hair follicles, and a complex structure with muscle, blood vessels, and immune cells.
research Contents
The document summarizes recent dermatological treatments and advances in areas like pediatric care, wound healing, skin closure, light-based therapies, pigment disorders, hair loss, immunotherapy, infection management, melanoma, drug reactions, and facial rejuvenation.
research Giant pigmented tumour of the scalp—a diffuse neurofibroma or a congenital naevus showing neurofibromatous changes? Immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies
The tumor likely shows dual neural crest differentiation.
research Practical approaches to medical and cosmetic dermatology in skin of color patients
The document concludes that patients with skin of color need specialized dermatological care and education to manage unique skin conditions effectively.
research Human hair melanins: what we have learned and have not learned from mouse coat color pigmentation
We know a lot about mouse hair color, but not much about human hair color differences.
research Human hair melanins: what we have learned and have not learned from mouse coat color pigmentation
We know less about human hair pigmentation than mouse coat color, but pH and cysteine levels are key factors.
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 Biology of hair pigmentation and its role in premature canities
Early hair graying is often inherited and influenced by genetics, environment, and lifestyle, but treatment options are limited.
research Influence of Depigmenting Chemical Agents on Hair and Skin Color in Yellow (Pheomelanic) and Black (Eumelanic) Mice
Certain chemicals cause hair graying in black mice but not yellow mice.
research Classic versus non‐classic: A survival Kit for life in the skin
Melanocytes in different body areas have evolved to perform specific functions based on their location.
research The cell biology of human hair follicle pigmentation
We need more research on human hair follicle pigmentation, not just mouse models.
research Epimedium brevicornum Maxim. Extract exhibits pigmentation by melanin biosynthesis and melanosome biogenesis/transfer
Epimedium extract helps increase skin pigmentation and could be a new treatment for conditions with reduced pigmentation.
research Effect of mesenchymal stem cells on reducing melanin levels in response to UV radiation in male C57BL/6 mice
Mesenchymal stem cells may help reduce melanin in UV-exposed mice.
research Microneedling dilates the follicular infundibulum and increases transfollicular absorption of liposomal sepia melanin
Microneedling helps increase the absorption of a melanin product into hair follicles, which may improve laser hair removal effectiveness.
research Field melanin mapping of the hairless scalp
The study found a specific pattern of uneven melanin distribution on balding scalps that could help understand skin diseases caused by light exposure.
research STIMULATING EFFECT OF ADRENALECTOMY ON HAIR GROWTH AND MELANIN DEPOSITION IN BLACK RATS FED DIETS ADEQUATE AND DEFICIENT IN THE FILTRATE FACTORS OF VITAMIN B1
Adrenalectomy boosts hair growth and melanin in black rats, even with vitamin B¹ deficiency.
