540-570 / 1000+ results research The ‘melanocyte-keratin’ mystery revisited: neither normal human epidermal nor hair follicle melanocytes express keratin 16 or keratin 6in situ
Human melanocytes in skin and hair follicles don't express keratin 16 or 6 naturally.
research 571 Role of observation for excisionally biopsied moderately dysplastic nevi with positive histologic margins and risk of development of future melanoma
Watching, not removing, skin growths with moderate atypia and positive edges is okay; patients may get melanoma elsewhere, especially if they've had it before.
research Application of 3D Reflectance Confocal Microscopy: Melanocytic Proliferations as 3D Models; JAAD Supplemental Material
3D models from confocal microscopy improve melanoma detection on sun-damaged skin.
research 464 Spatial transcriptomics links gene expression profiles to functional and structural traits of darkly pigmented skin
Dark skin has stronger barriers and structure due to specific gene activity.
research Therapeutic Potential of Patient iPSC-Derived iMelanocytes in Autologous Transplantation
Patient-derived stem cell melanocytes could be a promising treatment for vitiligo.
research Dermal Papilla Cells and Melanocytes Response to Physiological Oxygen Levels Depends on Their Interactions
Oxygen levels affect hair growth and color cells differently when they interact directly.
research Effect of Tribulus Terrestris Extract of Different Dosings on Melanocortin-1 Receptor Expression in Mouse Hair Follicles
Higher doses of Tribulus terrestris extract increase MC-1R expression in mouse hair follicles.
research Culture of amelanotic melanocytes derived from human fetal hair follicles
Melanocytes from human fetal hair follicles were successfully cultured, showing potential for hair disease research and clinical use.
research Melanin Light Absorption as the Necessary but Not Sufficient Condition for Photoepilation: Miniaturization and Eclipse Phenomena
Melanin absorbing light is necessary but not enough for effective hair removal by light treatment.
research Scalp Melanoma: A High-Risk Subset of Cutaneous Head and Neck Melanomas with Distinctive Clinicopathological Features
Scalp melanomas are more dangerous and likely to recur or cause death than other head and neck melanomas.
research A novel mouse model demonstrates that oncogenic melanocyte stem cells engender melanoma resembling human disease
Oncogenic melanocyte stem cells can develop into melanoma similar to human cases.
research 687 BMP signaling in the hair follicle stem cell niche regulates hair growth and skin pigmentation
BMP signaling controls hair growth and skin color.
research Pimecrolimus increases the melanogenesis and migration of melanocytes in vitro
Pimecrolimus boosts melanin production and movement of skin pigment cells.
research Desmoplastic melanoma presenting as an alopecic patch in a young patient
A man had a rare skin cancer that looked like a bald spot.
research Atypical bilateral hyperpigmented macules on the lower legs possibly due to cyclophosphamide.
Cyclophosphamide likely causes skin darkening by affecting hair follicles.
research Predictors of sentinel lymph node metastasis in melanoma
Thicker melanomas and nodular types are more likely to spread to sentinel lymph nodes.
research Lipid‐mediated signalling and melanocyte function
A sphingolipid from human placenta may help treat vitiligo by activating melanocyte stem cells.
research Spectrum of Phenotypes Associated with Human MC1R Variations
MC1R gene variations affect skin, hair color, UV sensitivity, and melanoma risk.
research Overexpression of hepatoma-derived growth factor in melanocytes does not lead to oncogenic transformation
Overexpression of HDGF in melanocytes does not cause cancer.
research El currículum educativo garantiza el deporte como derecho a la educación
Melanocyte stem cells can become melanoma, resembling human melanoma.
research The color of skin: white diseases of the skin, nails, and mucosa
The document concludes that while white skin, nail, and mucosa diseases increase skin cancer risk, they are generally harmless, especially compared to darker pigmentation conditions.
research Inducible cre-mediated N-ras activation and PTEN inactivation in transgenic mouse melanocytes requires keratinocyte hyperplasia to elicit a melanocyte pathology
Melanocyte pathology requires keratinocyte hyperplasia and regulation dysfunction.
research Analysis of R199H Polymorphism of Canine Melanophilin Gene (MLPH) in Population of Czech Pointer in Slovakia
The study found genetic diversity in coat color dilution among Czech pointers in Slovakia.
research Change in Hair Color in Mice Induced by Injection of α-MSH
Injecting α-MSH made mice's hair turn black.
research Digital measurement of melasma: Towards eliminating subjectivity from treatment evaluation
The digital system for measuring melasma shows promise but needs more development for better accuracy and automation.
research Dermoscopy findings of alopecia areata in an African-American patient
Skin color may change how alopecia areata looks under a dermoscope.
research EFFECTS OF α-MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONE AND [8-ARGININE]-VASOTOCIN UPON MELANOGENESIS IN HAIR FOLLICLE MELANOCYTES IN VITRO
α-MSH increases melanin production in moulting hair follicles, while AVT inhibits it.
research Stem cell factor combined with matrix proteins promotes attachment and migration of amelanotic melanocyte from human follicle hair
Stem cell factor and certain proteins help melanocytes from hair follicles move and attach better, aiding vitiligo repigmentation.
research Blood MUC-18/MCAM expression in patients with melanoma: a suitable marker of poor outcome
High MUC-18/MCAM levels in blood indicate a worse outlook for melanoma patients.
