Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
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.
research Oxidative Damage Control in a Human (Mini-) Organ: Nrf2 Activation Protects against Oxidative Stress-Induced Hair Growth Inhibition
Activating Nrf2 protects human hair follicles from oxidative stress and helps prevent hair growth inhibition.
research Premature graying of hair
Premature graying of hair may suggest health issues and currently lacks effective treatments.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research Aging in hair follicle stem cells and niche microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research Revisiting the role of melatonin in human melanocyte physiology: A skin context perspective
Melatonin affects skin and hair color and protects skin cells, with potential benefits for hair growth and skin health.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research Single-cell transcriptomics reveals lineage trajectory of human scalp hair follicle and informs mechanisms of hair graying
The study found new details about human hair growth and suggests that preventing a specific biological pathway could potentially treat hair graying.
research Deficiency in Nucleotide Excision Repair Family Gene Activity, Especially ERCC3, Is Associated with Non-Pigmented Hair Fiber Growth
Low ERCC3 gene activity is linked to non-pigmented hair growth.
research A review of the etiologies, clinical characteristics, and treatment of canities
Gray hair is caused by reduced melanin production or transfer issues, linked to aging and possibly health conditions, with treatments focusing on color camouflage.
research Hair Graying Regulators Beyond Hair Follicle
Hair graying is influenced by factors like nerves, fat cells, and immune cells, not just hair follicles.
research Premature Greying of Hair (Premature Canities): A Concern for Parent and Child
Genetics, stress, and health issues can cause early hair greying, which affects self-esteem, and there's no cure, only hair dye.
research Aging and Anti-Aging in Hair and Hair Loss
Hair ages and thins due to factors like inflammation and stress, and treatments like antioxidants and hormones might improve hair health.
research Melanocytes in regenerative medicine applications and disease modeling
Melanocytes are important for normal body functions and have potential uses in regenerative medicine and disease treatment.
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 hair bulb contains different types of melanocytes with varying abilities to produce melanin.
research Hair Changes Caused by Aging
Aging causes hair to gray and thin, with the timing of graying varying by race, and factors like oxidative stress and genetics can lead to hair loss.
research Assessment of scalp hair survivin in patients with premature greying of hair
Examining Survivin levels may help understand premature greying of hair.
research Wound Healing: A Cellular Perspective
