research Melanocytes: The new Black
Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.
research Whole-genome sequencing of eight goat populations for the detection of selection signatures underlying production and adaptive traits
Researchers identified genes linked to coat color, body size, cashmere production, and high altitude adaptation in goats.
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 PAK4 signaling in health and disease: defining the PAK4–CREB axis
PAK4 is crucial in cancer progression, brain development, and could be a therapeutic target, especially through the PAK4-CREB axis.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Prostaglandin D2 Inhibits Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Neogenesis through the Receptor, Gpr44
Prostaglandin D2 blocks new hair growth after skin injury through the Gpr44 receptor.
research Age-induced hair greying - the multiple effects of oxidative stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research Epidermal stem cells: practical perspectives and potential uses
Epidermal stem cells could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research EdnrB Governs Regenerative Response of Melanocyte Stem Cells by Crosstalk with Wnt Signaling
EdnrB signaling helps melanocyte stem cells regenerate and could be targeted to treat pigmentation issues.
research A neuroendocrinological perspective on human hair follicle pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Keratinocytes regulate the function of melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.

Exosomes can improve skin health and offer new treatments for skin repair and rejuvenation.
research A review on traditional uses, phytochemistry and pharmacology of Eclipta prostrata (L.) L.
Eclipta prostrata has many traditional uses and health benefits, but more research is needed to understand how it works and ensure it's safe.
research Identification of hair shaft progenitors that create a niche for hair pigmentation
Scientists found cells in hair that are key for growth and color.
research Functional hair follicle regeneration: an updated review
Hair follicle regeneration possible, more research needed.
research Advances in the Management of Cutaneous Toxicities of Targeted Therapies
Targeted cancer therapies often cause skin problems that need careful management to improve patient quality of life and treatment success.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
research Chronic Stress Suppresses the Expression of Cutaneous Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenocortical Axis Elements and Melanogenesis
Chronic stress can reduce skin pigmentation.
research The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Cutaneous Remodeling and Hair Follicle Dynamics
Tiny particles called extracellular vesicles could help with skin healing and hair growth, but more research is needed.
research Aging in hair follicle stem cells and niche microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research Hair greying is associated with active hair growth
White hair grows thicker and faster than black hair due to higher activity of growth-related genes and proteins.
research Recent advances on skin‐resident stem/progenitor cell functions in skin regeneration, aging and cancers and novel anti‐aging and cancer therapies
New treatments targeting skin stem cells show promise for skin repair, anti-aging, and cancer therapy.
research Priming mobilization of hair follicle stem cells triggers permanent loss of regeneration after alkylating chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes permanent hair follicle damage by triggering stem cell loss.
