360-390 / 1000+ resultsresearch Discrimination of Dysplastic Nevi from Common Melanocytic Nevi by Cellular and Molecular Criteria
Dysplastic nevi have unique gene expressions, making them distinct from common melanocytic nevi.
research 1351 Investigation of the molecular identity of the junctional zone in human
GATA6 is important for maintaining and differentiating cells in a key area of human skin.
research BMI1 is required for melanocyte stem cell maintenance and hair pigmentation
BMI1 is essential for preventing hair greying and maintaining hair color.
research 1433 Epithelially derived, mitochondrial MPZL3 negatively regulates murine and human hair follicle cycling
A protein called MPZL3 in mitochondria slows down hair growth and could be a target for treating hair growth disorders.
research Dyeing regions of oxidative hair dyes in human hair investigated by nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry
Hair dye colors mainly target melanin granules in black hair.
research Betamethasone actives cultured amelanotic melanocytes derived from outer root sheath of human hair follicle
Betamethasone activates and increases the growth of certain skin cells from hair follicles.

Neuropilin 2 may be a biomarker for melanoma and affects melanocyte behavior.
research On the etiology of vitiligo and gray hair
Melanocytes are destroyed by factors needed for melanin production, causing vitiligo and gray hair.
research Dermoscopy: distinguishing malignant tumors from benign
Dermoscopy greatly improves melanoma diagnosis and reduces unneeded surgeries.
research 014 Non-melanoma skin cancer in skin of color: Cases of mistaken identity
Non-melanoma skin cancer in darker-skinned people can be misdiagnosed, so doctors need to be more aware to diagnose it correctly and early.
research Segmental Becker’s Nevi with Mucosal Involvement
A 16-year-old boy had a rare case of Becker's nevus on his face and mouth.
research Effects of Gonadal Steroids on Melanocytes in Developing Hamsters
Androgens increase pigmentation in young hamsters, but estrogens can reverse this effect.
research Histological features of melasma lesions and the expression of keratin 10
Melasma skin has more melanin and signs of aging, with strong CK10 expression linked to cell differentiation and aging.
research Merkel cell differentiation in trichoblastoma
Trichoblastomas may mimic fetal skin development by having many Merkel cells, unlike adult skin.
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 Diagnostic utility of preferentially expressed antigen in melanoma immunohistochemistry in the evaluation of melanomas with a co-existent nevoid melanocytic population: A single-center retrospective cohort study
PRAME helps distinguish between benign and malignant skin cells in most cases.
research Determining the Secondary Role of UV Light in Swimmers Melanoma Genesis
Hydrogen peroxide is the main risk factor for melanoma in swimmers, not UV light.
research Coordinated Activation of Wnt in Epithelial and Melanocyte Stem Cells Initiates Pigmented Hair Regeneration
Wnt signaling is crucial for pigmented hair regeneration by controlling stem cell activation and differentiation.
research Wnt10b Promotes Differentiation of Mouse Hair Follicle Melanocytes
Wnt10b helps hair follicle cells mature and produce pigment.
