660-690 / 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 Melatonin as a major skin protectant: from free radical scavenging to DNA damage repair
Melatonin protects the skin by scavenging free radicals and repairing DNA damage.
research Topically applied thyroid hormones stimulate hair growth in organ-cultured human scalp skin
Applying thyroid hormones to the scalp can help hair grow.
research Diffuser Haarausfall und klinische Endokrinologie: Neue Erkenntnisse
Hormones significantly affect hair growth and loss, with potential for new treatments.
research Vitiligo
Vitiligo causes white skin patches but can be treated in many ways.
research Simultaneous LC-MS/MS quantification of glucocorticoids, melatonin and its metabolites in hair
The new method can measure sleep-related hormones in hair effectively and could help track long-term sleep patterns.
research The roles of hepatocyte growth factor family members in androgen-regulation of human hair growth. A comparison of the expression of hepatocyte growth factor family members, HGF and MSP, and their receptors, c-Met and RON, in isolated hair follicles from normal and androgenetic alopecia (balding) scalp.
Balding hair follicles have reduced growth factors and increased inhibitory factors, suggesting new treatment paths for hair loss.
research Regulated Proenkephalin Expression in Human Skin and Cultured Skin Cells
Human skin cells produce proenkephalin, which changes with environmental factors and skin diseases.
research Melatonin Receptor MT1 is Expressed in Mouse Skin and In vitro Melatonin Treatment Enhances Whisker Growth
Melatonin may help whisker growth in mice.
research The Physiological Impact of Melatonin, Its Effect on the Course of Diseases and Their Therapy and the Effect of Magnetic Fields on Melatonin Secretion—Potential Common Pathways of Influence
Melatonin may help treat various diseases and is influenced by magnetic fields, but more research is needed.
research Sexually dimorphic effect of progesterone and its reduced metabolites on the gene expression of myelin proteins in rat Schwann cells
Progesterone and its metabolites affect myelin protein expression differently in male and female rat Schwann cells.
research Human long-term deregulated circadian rhythm alters regenerative properties of skin and hair precursor cells
Disrupted sleep patterns can harm skin and hair cell renewal, but melatonin might help.
research Thyrotropin-releasing hormone and oestrogen differentially regulate prolactin and prolactin receptor expression in female human skin and hair follicles in vitro
Oestrogen and thyrotropin-releasing hormone affect prolactin and its receptor in human skin and hair, suggesting new treatment options for related conditions.
research Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH): a new player in human hair‐growth control
TRH stimulates human hair growth and extends the hair growth phase.
research Hormones in infant rhesus monkeys’ (Macaca mulatta) hair at birth provide a window into the fetal environment
research Hair greying & its palliative management
Hair greying is seen as a sign of aging; temporary fixes like hair dye are used, but a balanced diet and hair care can help manage it.
research Scalp melanoma: Distinctive high risk clinical and histological features
Scalp melanomas are more dangerous and often missed, needing earlier detection.
research Hair growth-modulation by adrenergic drugs
Certain drugs can cause early hair growth in mice by affecting the nerves.

research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Cutaneous adverse effects of targeted therapies
Targeted cancer therapies often cause skin side effects, needing dermatologist care.
research Clinical Snippets
Melanoma risk tools need improvement, certain gene mutations cause skin diseases and could be treated by targeting those mutations, skin wrinkling may relate to lung aging due to genetic factors, and oxidative stress affects hair loss but can be reduced in low oxygen.
research Chemical agents and peptides affect hair growth
Certain chemicals and peptides can promote hair growth or prevent baldness.
research Comparison Treatment of Vitiligo by Co-culture of Melanocytes Derived from Hair Follicle with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells with and without NB-UVB
Treating vitiligo with stem cells and melanocytes from hair, along with UVB light, works better than without the light.
