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 Micro-Injury Induces Hair Regeneration and Vitiligo Repigmentation Through Wnt/ β-Catenin Pathway
Micro-injury can help regrow hair and repigment vitiligo by activating specific cells.
research Culturing of Melanocytes from the Equine Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath
Researchers successfully grew horse skin cells that produce pigment from hair follicle samples.
research Receptor tyrosine kinase Kit action in skin melanocytes: is it exclusively cell autonomous?
KIT's role in skin cells is not entirely independent, as other cells can influence its function.
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 Stem Cells and their Niches
The document concludes that stem cells and their environments are crucial for skin and hair health and have potential for medical treatments.
research Resident Stem Cell in Skin
Skin stem cells can help improve skin repair and regeneration.
research Exosomal miR-222-3p derived from dermal papilla cells inhibits melanogenesis in melanocytes by targeting SOX10 in rabbits
Exosomal miR-222-3p reduces melanin production in rabbits by targeting the SOX10 gene.
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 Histological Study for Skin of Horse
Horse skin has a layered epidermis, a dermis with hair follicles, sweat and sebaceous glands, and is supplied by small arteries.
research Author response: Dynamics of nevus development implicate cell cooperation in the growth arrest of transformed melanocytes
Moles may stop growing because of cell cooperation, not just because of aging cells.
research Decision letter: Dynamics of nevus development implicate cell cooperation in the growth arrest of transformed melanocytes
Moles may stop growing due to cell cooperation, not just because of individual cell aging.
research 1363 Hair follicle growth and pigmentation during ageing
The research found that a specific skin cell type not only triggers hair growth but also controls hair color, and that aging can lead to hair loss and color changes.
research The role of nuclear hormone receptors in cutaneous wound repair
Nuclear hormone receptors play a significant role in skin wound healing and could lead to better treatment methods.
research Maintenance of high proliferation and multipotent potential of human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells by growth factors
Growth factors help hair follicle stem cells grow and stay versatile.
research Multipotent nestin‐expressing hair follicle stem cells
Hair follicle stem cells can turn into various cell types and help repair nerves.
research Skin 3D Bioprinting. Applications in Cosmetology
3D bioprinting could improve skin repair and treat conditions like vitiligo and alopecia by precisely placing cells.
research An unusual anatomical colocalization of alopecia areata and vitiligo in a child, and improvement during treatment with topical prostaglandin E2
Topical prostaglandin E2 can help treat both alopecia areata and vitiligo.
research Exploring the potential effect and mechanisms of protocatechuic acid on human hair follicle melanocytes
Protocatechuic acid can reduce melanin production and boost antioxidant activity in hair follicles.
research The Hair Follicle Stem Cell as the Paradigm Multipotent Adult Stem Cell
Hair follicle stem cells can turn into many cell types and may help repair nerve damage and have other medical uses.
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 Ultraviolet Radiation in Wound Care: Sterilization and Stimulation
UV radiation can help sterilize wounds and promote healing but requires careful use to avoid damaging cells.
research The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
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 Adam10 haploinsufficiency causes freckle-like macules in Hairless mice
A mutation in the Adam10 gene causes freckle-like spots on Hairless mice.
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 Epimedium brevicornum Maxim. Extract exhibits pigmentation by melanin biosynthesis and melanosome biogenesis/transfer
Epimedium extract helps increase skin pigmentation and could be a new treatment for conditions with reduced pigmentation.
