Research
270-300 / 1000+ resultsresearch The potential impact of melanosomal pH and metabolism on melanoma
Melanin may help melanoma cells grow by aiding their metabolism.
research Platelet-derived growth factor regulates the proliferation and differentiation of human melanocytes in a differentiation-stage-specific manner
PDGF-BB helps young melanocytes grow but stops mature ones from growing, and it makes melanocytes more specialized.
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 Reversible Facial Hyperpigmentation Associated With Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause facial dark spots that go away with treatment.
research Rippled‐pattern trichomatricoma
A unique hair tumor with a rippled pattern was identified, showing incomplete differentiation and unusual cell arrangements.
research Perifollicular Elastolysis: A Systematic Review of Clinical Characteristics, Histopathology, and Therapeutic Outcomes
Perifollicular elastolysis is poorly understood, with limited treatment options and inconsistent results.
research 1229 Melanocyte cell states defined and visualized in developing mouse skin
Researchers found three types of melanocytes in developing mouse skin, each with different genes and locations.
research Merkel Cells in Hyperplastic and Neoplastic Lesions of the Skin
Merkel cell increase is specific to certain skin diseases, not general skin growth.
research 1363 Hair follicle growth and pigmentation during ageing
The research found that a specific skin cell type not only triggers hair growth but also controls hair color, and that aging can lead to hair loss and color changes.
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 Lenalidomide Augments Differentiation of Cultured Hair Follicle Derived Melanocyte Stem Cells Into Functional Melanocytes
Lenalidomide helps hair follicle stem cells turn into melanocytes, which may improve repigmentation in vitiligo.
research Repigmentation of Leukoderma by Minigrafts of Normally Pigmented, Autologous Skin
Transplanting small skin grafts can successfully repigment leukoderma.
research Neuropilin 2 expression and function in melanocytes and melanoma
Neuropilin 2 may be a biomarker for melanoma and affects melanocyte behavior.
research Disorders of Hair Pigmentation
Hair color is determined by melanin and can be affected by genetic conditions like albinism.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Hair color is determined by melanin produced and transferred in hair follicles.
research Bilateral conjunctival lesions in Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome
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 Unilateral heterochromia of scalp hair with adjacent hypomelanotic skin lesions
The boy's hair and skin color differences are due to a pigmentation disorder.
research Treatment of erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli with a 595‐nm pulsed dye laser
The 595-nm pulsed dye laser effectively reduces symptoms of EFFC with minimal side effects.
research Nevus psiloliparus: Newly described histopathological features from transverse sections
Nevus psiloliparus lacks mature hair follicles but keeps other skin structures intact.
research Melanocyte stem cells in the skin: Origin, biological characteristics, homeostatic maintenance and therapeutic potential
Melanocyte stem cells are vital for skin and hair color and have potential in treating skin disorders and cancer.
research An unusual anatomical colocalization of alopecia areata and vitiligo in a child, and improvement during treatment with topical prostaglandin E2
Topical prostaglandin E2 can help treat both alopecia areata and vitiligo.
research Functional and long-lived melanocytes from human pluripotent stem cells with transient ectopic expression of JMJD3
Stem cells can be used to create long-lasting skin cells for treating pigment disorders.
research Post-tyrosinase Inhibition of Melanogenesis by Melatonin in Hair Follicles in Vitro
research Dissecting the boundary of quiescence and activation of murine melanocyte stem cells in the hair follicle niche
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key to understanding and potentially preventing hair graying.
research Melanocyte Chitosan/Gelatin Composite Fabrication with Human Outer Root Sheath-Derived Cells to Produce Pigment
The technique can isolate cells to help treat skin pigmentation issues.
research Melanocyte dysfunctions: future and promise of stem cells
Melanocyte stem cells hold promise for skin regeneration and treating pigmentation issues.
research Preservation of sebaceous glands and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma expression in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Sebaceous glands are often preserved and PPARy expression is constant in some cases of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia.
research Atypical bilateral hyperpigmented macules on the lower legs possibly due to cyclophosphamide.
Cyclophosphamide likely causes skin darkening by affecting hair follicles.
