30-60 / 1000+ results research Dynamic Transcriptome Profile Analysis of Mechanisms Related to Melanin Deposition in Chicken Muscle Development
Key genes influence melanin in chicken muscles, affecting their value.
research An introduction to skin disease in melanin rich skin
Melanin-rich skin has unique challenges in diagnosing and treating skin diseases.
research The melanocyte photosensory system in the human skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
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 From hair colour to diagnosis
Hair color is influenced by genetics and can indicate certain health conditions.
research Update on Melasma—Part I: Pathogenesis
Melasma's causes include genetics, sun exposure, hormones, and oxidative stress, and understanding these can help create better treatments.
research Increased PHGDH expression promotes aberrant melanin accumulation
Higher PHGDH levels cause unusual melanin buildup in hair follicles.
research Herbal insights into melanin synthesis: Enhancing hair health naturally
Melanin is important for hair color, health, and UV protection.

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 The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Piecing together the pigment-type switching puzzle
The document concludes that MGRN1 affects mouse fur color by interfering with a receptor's signaling, but its full role in the body is still unknown.
research The distribution of melanocytes and the degradation of melanosomes in fetal hair follicles
Fetal hair follicles have melanocytes with melanosomes at different stages, which are broken down into pigment particles in keratinocytes.
research Inducible cre-mediated N-ras activation and PTEN inactivation in transgenic mouse melanocytes requires keratinocyte hyperplasia to elicit a melanocyte pathology
Melanocyte pathology requires keratinocyte hyperplasia and regulation dysfunction.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
