research Preservation of melanoblasts of white hair follicles of segmental vitiligo lesions: A preliminary study
White hair follicles in vitiligo have fewer and less functional melanocytes.
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 Topical liposome delivery of molecules to hair follicles in mice
Liposomes can safely and effectively deliver substances to mouse hair follicles, potentially useful for human hair treatments.
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 Dual role of laminin‑511 in regulating melanocyte migration and differentiation
Laminin-511 is essential for proper melanocyte movement and development in mice.
research Colourless side of the nude mutation: Foxn1 and hair pigmentation
Foxn1 is essential for hair pigmentation by directing pigment transfer to hair cells.
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 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 Clinical, Dermoscopic, and Histological Characteristics of Melanoma Patients According to the Age Groups: A Retrospective Observational Study
Melanoma characteristics vary by age, which could help doctors with diagnosis and prevention.
research The cell biology of human hair follicle pigmentation
We need more research on human hair follicle pigmentation, not just mouse models.
research Plerixafor Biases CXCR4 Signaling Through β-Arrestin to Promote Melanogenesis via β-Catenin–MITF Activation
Plerixafor may help treat pigmentation disorders by promoting skin repigmentation.
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 Pathologic Quiz Case: A 69-Year-Old Man With a Brown-Black Facial Papule
A rare benign skin growth called melanocytic matricoma was identified in a 69-year-old man.
research LB1031 Immune Cell-Mediated Amplification of Stem Cell Activation in Hairy Melanocytic Nevus via Osteopontin-CD44 Axis
Immune cells boost stem cell activity in hairy moles, causing more hair growth.
research EVALUATION OF GUT MICROBIOTA IN MELANOMA AND VITILIGO PATIENTS
Melanoma and vitiligo patients have different gut fungi and bacteria compared to healthy people.
research Dermoscopy of scalp tumours: a multi‐centre study conducted by the international dermoscopy society
The study concluded that scalp tumors show different patterns based on age, gender, and tumor thickness, and emphasized the importance of early detection and scalp examinations.
research Characterization of a new, inducible transgenic mouse model with GFP expression in melanocytes and their precursors
A new mouse model helps study melanocyte cells using GFP expression.
research Non-pigmentary actions of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone--lessons from the cutaneous melanocortin system.
Alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone helps manage skin inflammation and protect against UV damage.
research Tfap2b specifies an embryonic melanocyte stem cell that retains adult multi-fate potential
The gene Tfap2b is essential for creating a type of stem cell in zebrafish that can become different pigment cells.
research Molecular Regulation of Melanocyte Senescence
The article concludes that while we understand a lot about how melanocytes age and how this can prevent cancer, there are still unanswered questions about certain pathways and genes involved.
research Topobiology of Human Pigmentation: P-Cadherin Selectively Stimulates Hair Follicle Melanogenesis
P-cadherin is crucial for hair follicle pigmentation but not skin pigmentation.
research An introduction to skin disease in melanin rich skin
Melanin-rich skin has unique challenges in diagnosing and treating skin diseases.
research Expression of melanocortin receptors on cutaneous fibroblastic cells – collagen and beyond
MC-1R in skin cells may influence inflammation and collagen production.
research 178 Association of melanoma mortality rates and geographic density of dermatology and hematology-oncology specialists
More dermatologists in an area are linked to better survival rates for melanoma.
research Atypical bilateral hyperpigmented macules on the lower legs possibly due to cyclophosphamide.
Cyclophosphamide likely causes skin darkening by affecting hair follicles.
research Immunohistochemical localization of fatty acid transporters and MCT1 in the sebaceous glands of mouse skin
Sebaceous glands help study fatty acid transporters and binding proteins.
research Langerhans' Cells in Hair Follicles of the Depigmenting C57Bl/Ler-vit.vit Mouse
Langerhans' cells are not involved in hair depigmentation in these mice.
research 457 Impact of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone on mitochondrial function in human dermal fibroblasts
Alpha-MSH affects mitochondrial function, and MC1R mutations may increase skin aging.
research Dermoscopy of Thick Scalp Melanoma: Is It Always an Easy Diagnosis?
Thick scalp melanoma can be hard to diagnose because it often looks like other skin conditions.
