A new mouse model helps study melanocyte cells using GFP expression.
research Stress-sensing in the human greying hair follicle: Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) depletion in hair bulb melanocytes in canities-prone scalp
Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.
research HGF/SF Increases Number of Skin Melanocytes but Does Not Alter Quality or Quantity of Follicular Melanogenesis
HGF/SF increases skin melanocytes but doesn't change melanin type or amount.
research Dopa oxidase activity in the hair, skin and ocular melanocytes is increased in the presence of stressed fibroblasts
Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.
research A Simple Drug Delivery System for Platelet-Derived Bioactive Molecules, to Improve Melanocyte Stimulation in Vitiligo Treatment
The new drug delivery system improves vitiligo treatment by enhancing melanocyte activity and viability.
research Finasteride inhibits melanogenesis through regulation of the adenylate cyclase in melanocytes and melanoma cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
