60-90 / 1000+ results research Sox9 regulates melanocytic fate decision of adult hair follicle stem cells
Sox9 is crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become melanocytes instead of glial cells.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Hair follicle-derived epithelial sheet has potential in vitiligo treatment
Hair follicle-derived sheets can effectively treat vitiligo by repigmenting skin.
research Montagna Symposium 2015: Harnessing Stem Cells to Reveal Novel Skin Biology and Disease Treatments
The symposium showed that stem cells are key for understanding and treating skin diseases and for developing new skin models and therapies.
research Surgical Management of Leukotrichia
Surgical repigmentation can permanently restore color to white hair in vitiligo patients.
research Hyperactivation of sympathetic nerves drives depletion of melanocyte stem cells
Stress can cause hair to turn gray by depleting stem cells.
research Loss of Dicer in Newborn Melanocytes Leads to Premature Hair Graying and Changes in Integrin Expression
Removing Dicer from pigment cells in newborn mice causes early hair graying and changes in cell migration molecules.
research Photosensory Function, Reception and Response in Human Skin
Human skin responds to light with protective mechanisms, but more research is needed to understand these processes and their implications for health and therapy.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Human Hair Follicle and Epidermal Melanocytes Exhibit Striking Differences in Their Aging Profile which Involves Catalase
Hair follicle cells age faster and lose pigment due to less catalase, causing hair to turn gray.
research Loss of ‘Epidermal Melanin Unit’ Integrity in Human Skin During Melanoma-Genesis
Melanoma development can be linked to the breakdown of skin's melanin-producing units.
research Enhanced Differentiation Potential of Pigmented Human Epidermal Equivalents
PmtHEE is a better model for studying pigmented skin because it includes melanocytes and shows improved cell differentiation.
research Exposure to gamma-rays at the telogen phase of the hair cycle inhibits hair follicle regeneration at the anagen phase in mice
Gamma-rays exposure during the resting phase of hair growth can damage hair regeneration and color in mice.
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 BMP4 regulates differentiation of nestin-positive stem cells into melanocytes
BMP4 helps stem cells turn into pigment-producing cells, affecting hair color and growth.
research Wound Healing: A Cellular Perspective
The document concludes that better targeted treatments are needed for wound healing, and single-cell technologies may improve cell-based therapies.
research Vitiligo: A comprehensive overview
Vitiligo is a skin condition causing white spots, more common in women, often starts before age 20, and can affect mental health.
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.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Human dermal stem cells differentiate into functional epidermal melanocytes
Human dermal stem cells can become functional skin pigment cells.
research Do Hair Bulb Melanocytes Undergo Apotosis During Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen)?
