research A preliminary study of markers for human hair follicle melanin stem cell
Researchers identified potential markers for human hair color stem cells.
research Towards a “free radical theory of graying”: melanocyte apoptosis in the aging human hair follicle is an indicator of oxidative stress induced tissue damage
Oxidative stress causes hair to gray by damaging and killing pigment cells.
research Subclinical speckled perifollicular melanosis of the scalp.
The scalp has a natural speckled pattern of increased pigment around hair follicles, possibly linked to local hormone production.
research Heme Oxygenase and the Skin in Health and Disease
HO-1 helps skin health and healing but can worsen melanoma; it's a potential treatment target for skin diseases.
research Targeting the (Un)differentiated State of Cancer
Less differentiated melanoma cells are more vulnerable to a type of cell death, which could improve cancer treatments.
research Targeted Knockout of β-Catenin in Adult Melanocyte Stem Cells Using a Mouse Line, Dct::CreERT2, Results in Disrupted Stem Cell Renewal and Pigmentation Defects
Removing β-catenin in certain stem cells causes hair whitening and pigmentation issues.
research Desmoplastic melanoma presenting as primary alopecia neoplastica: a report of two cases
Two women were diagnosed with a rare melanoma that looked like hair loss but was actually a type of skin cancer.
research Molecular heterogeneity of quiescent melanocyte stem cells revealed by single‐cell RNA ‐sequencing
Different types of resting melanocyte stem cells have unique characteristics and vary in their potential to become other cells.
