Human hair color is determined by melanin types and genetic factors.
research Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell–Derived Exosomes Preserve Melanocyte Stem Cell Integrity Under Acute Neurogenic Oxidative Stress via Activation of the Nrf2– ARE Pathway in C57BL / 6J Mice
Exosomes from umbilical cord stem cells help protect hair color and health under stress.
research Protective Role of Melatonin and Its Metabolites in Skin Aging
Melatonin, a hormone, can help protect skin from aging by reducing stress, inflammation, and damage, and may also help treat hair loss in women.
research Is knowledge about the genetic and epigenetic alterations in melanoma a basis for targeted therapy?
Targeting multiple pathways and understanding genetic mutations are crucial for effective melanoma therapy.
research Pigmented Rings With Central Clearing: A Dermoscopic Feature of Melasma
Pigmented rings with central clearing help diagnose melasma more accurately.
research The antimycotic agent clotrimazole inhibits melanogenesis by accelerating ERK and PI3K-/Akt-mediated tyrosinase degradation
Clotrimazole, an antifungal cream, may safely reduce skin pigmentation by breaking down the enzyme needed for making melanin.
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 1339 Casein kinase 1 inhibition in keratinocytes enhances the migration of melanocyte precursors in the hair follicle via KitL/c-Kit signaling pathway
Blocking casein kinase 1 in skin cells can help melanocyte precursors move better, potentially helping with conditions like vitiligo or gray hair.
research All-trans retinoic acid induced the differentiation of amelanotic melanocytes of human hair follicle
All-trans retinoic acid helps amelanotic melanocytes in hair follicles develop and produce pigment while reducing their growth.
research BMP4 regulates differentiation of nestin-positive stem cells into melanocytes
BMP4 helps stem cells turn into pigment-producing cells, affecting hair color and growth.
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 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 “Dark Cells” in Normal, Hyperplastic, and Promoter-Treated Mouse Epidermis Studied by Conventional and High-Voltage Electron Microscopy
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 EFFECTS OF α-MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONE AND [8-ARGININE]-VASOTOCIN UPON MELANOGENESIS IN HAIR FOLLICLE MELANOCYTES IN VITRO
