research Regulation of melanocyte stem cell behavior by the niche microenvironment
The environment around melanocyte stem cells is key for hair regeneration and color, with certain injuries affecting hair color and potential treatments for pigmentation disorders.
research The Hair Pigmentation Unit and Hair Graying
Hair color is determined by melanins produced in hair cells.
research 1360 Regulation of bmp signalling in melanogenesis, pigment transfer and melanocyte migration
BMP signaling is important for skin color, affecting melanin production, pigment spread, and cell movement.
research When the Circadian Clock Meets the Melanin Pigmentary System
Silencing certain circadian clock genes increases skin pigmentation.
research Dual aspects of B cells in tumor immunity; B cells are capable of positive and negative regulation for tumor immunity against B16 melanoma
B cells can both help and hinder the body's defense against melanoma.
research 1379 Cell of origin contributes to the melanoma diversity
