900-930 / 1000+ resultsresearch Regulation of melanin synthesis in goat hair follicles by melatonin through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway
research 568 Novel synthetic melanin nanoparticles improve skin wound healing
research Beyond the Epidermal-Melanin-Unit: The Human Scalp Anagen Hair Bulb Is Home to Multiple Melanocyte Subpopulations of Variable Melanogenic Capacity
The human scalp has different types of pigment cells in hair follicles with varying abilities to produce pigment.
research In-Situ Imaging Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Melanin Granules in the Human Hair Shaft
research Effects of SLC45A2 and GPNMB on Melanin Deposition Based on Transcriptome Sequencing in Chicken Feather Follicles
SLC45A2 and GPNMB genes help control chicken feather color by promoting melanin.
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 Stimulating effect of adrenalectomy on hair growth and melanin deposition in black rats fed diets adequate and deficient in the filtrate factors of vitamin B. With a note on effect of diet on post-operative survival.
research A case of systemic mastocytosis - an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study of the dermal mast cells in relation to activation of the epidermal melanin unit
Prednisone reduces organ mast cell infiltration but does not alter the abnormal appearance of mast cells in systemic mastocytosis.
research Human hair follicles display a functional equivalent of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis and synthesize cortisol
Human hair follicles can produce cortisol like the body's stress response system.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Hair color is determined by melanin produced and transferred in hair follicles.
research On the etiology of vitiligo and gray hair
Melanocytes are destroyed by factors needed for melanin production, causing vitiligo and gray hair.
research Melanocyte stem cells: a melanocyte reservoir in hair follicles for hair and skin pigmentation
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
research Towards a “free radical theory of graying”: melanocyte apoptosis in the aging human hair follicle is an indicator of oxidative stress induced tissue damage
Oxidative stress causes hair to gray by damaging and killing pigment cells.
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 Formation and Structure of Human Hair
Human hair growth and structure are influenced by keratin proteins, genes, melanin, and lipids.
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 Theoretical considerations in laser hair removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.
research Skin Pigmentation Types, Causes and Treatment—A Review
Skin pigmentation varies due to genetics, UV exposure, and drugs, with treatments available but requiring medical advice.
research Temporary hair removal by low fluence photoepilation: Histological study on biopsies and cultured human hair follicles
Low fluence photoepilation temporarily removes hair by targeting the hair follicle's pigmented area without severe damage.
research Do Hair Bulb Melanocytes Undergo Apotosis During Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen)?
Hair follicle melanocytes die during hair regression.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
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 is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research A Guide to Assessing Damage Response Pathways of the Hair Follicle: Lessons From Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia in Mice
The document concludes that assessing hair follicle damage due to cyclophosphamide in mice involves analyzing structural changes and suggests a scoring system for standardized evaluation.
research Genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals of European ancestry identifies new loci explaining a substantial fraction of hair color variation and heritability
New genetic locations explain much of hair color variation in Europeans.
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 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 Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal has advanced to effectively reduce hair for various skin types and hair colors.
research The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
