540-570 / 1000+ resultsresearch Editor's evaluation: Crosstalk with keratinocytes causes GNAQ oncogene specificity in melanoma
Keratinocytes can reduce the survival of certain melanoma cells, suggesting new therapy paths.
research Melanocytes from the outer root sheath of human hair and epidermal melanocytes display improved melanotic features in the niche provided by cGEL, oligomer-cross-linked gelatin-based hydrogel
cGEL hydrogel improves melanin production in skin cells, making it a promising option for skin treatments.
research Genetic Basis of Pigmentation and Its Disorders
Understanding genes can help diagnose and treat skin color disorders.
research Lipid‐mediated signalling and melanocyte function
A sphingolipid from human placenta may help treat vitiligo by activating melanocyte stem cells.
research Survival of patchwork melanoblasts is dependent upon their number in the hair follicle at the end of embryogenesis
More melanoblasts in hair follicles mean better survival and proper hair pigmentation.
research MELATONIN AND THE SKIN:FROM FROG TO HUMAN
Melatonin can affect skin color, treat skin conditions, and may help with skin cancer.
research 516 Dynein is involved in the movement, distribution, acidity, and transfer of melanosomes
Dynlt3 is important for melanosome transport and skin coloration.
research 644 Tumor cell adhesion as a risk factor for SLN metastasis and predictor of disease recurrence in primary cutaneous melanoma
Tumor cell adhesion is linked to higher risk of SLN metastasis and melanoma recurrence, and a model including these factors predicts these outcomes better than one with just clinical data.
research The secondary role of UV light in swimmers melanoma genesis
Hydrogen peroxide is a major risk factor for melanoma in swimmers, more than UV light.
research Mode of redifferentiation and melanogenesis of melanocytes in mouse hair follicles
research Detection of Functionally Active Melanocortin Receptors and Evidence for an Immunoregulatory Activity of α-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
αMSH may help regulate immune responses in hair follicles and its disruption could lead to hair loss.
research A human serum‐enriched medium formulation supports high viability and marker expression in primary melanocyte cultures from the outer root sheath and epidermis
A human serum-enriched medium effectively supports melanocyte growth and activity without using animal-derived supplements.
research The Hair Pigmentation Unit and Hair Graying
Hair color is due to active pigment cells in hair during growth.
research BMI1 is required for melanocyte stem cell maintenance and hair pigmentation
BMI1 is essential for preventing hair greying and maintaining hair color.
research Pimecrolimus increases the melanogenesis and migration of melanocytes in vitro
Pimecrolimus boosts melanin production and movement of skin pigment cells.
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 Serotoninergic and melatoninergic systems are fully expressed in human skin
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin.
research BJD Editor's Choice
Some Greek melanoma patients have gene mutations linked to increased cancer risk, a new color feature helps diagnose melanoma, the incidence of a skin condition in the Netherlands is rare, and a gene possibly affects male-pattern baldness.
research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research Changes in Different Melanocyte Populations During Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)
Different melanocyte types in hair follicles either survive or die during the catagen phase.
research Estudo da diversidade dos genes MC1R e SLC24A5 em populações globais: avaliação de aspectos evolutivos e ambientais
SLC24A5 shows a clear selective sweep, but no link to UV radiation intensity.
research Associations between sun sensitive pigmentary genes and serum prostate specific antigen levels
Men with less sun-sensitive skin have lower PSA levels, while men with more sun-sensitive skin have higher PSA levels.
research 890 Development of pigmented reconstructed human epidermis model containing human melanoblasts from keratinocyte culture
The created skin model with melanoblasts improves the study of skin color and offers an alternative to animal testing.
research Hair Follicle Melanogenesis Reflected in Hair Pigmentation as a Developmental Factor in Alopecia Areata
Hair color is not a risk factor for developing alopecia areata.
research 1272 p21Waf1/Cip1 is differentially expressed in epidermal versus follicular melanocytes and melanoma cells and is phenotypically regulated by UVB-mediated apoptosis
The protein p21 is more abundant in normal skin cells than in melanoma cells and may help protect against melanoma, with UVB light affecting its levels.
research Location and fine structure of melanocytes in human fetal scalp hair follicles.
Melanocytes in the outer root sheath are likely stem cells that grow fast but stay immature.
research Mechanisms of Hair Graying: Incomplete Melanocyte Stem Cell Maintenance in the Niche
Hair graying is caused by the loss of pigment cells due to poor maintenance of stem cells in the hair follicle.
research Alopecia Areata and Medical Modulation of the Intrinsic Property of Melanin to Transform Light Into Chemical Energy Through the Water Dissociation
Enhancing melanin's energy generation may help treat alopecia areata.
research Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase/Akt-Dependent and -Independent Protection Against Apoptosis in Normal Human Melanocytes
