research Somatic mutations distinguish melanocyte subpopulations in human skin
Hair follicles protect melanocytes from sun damage, helping them replenish skin.
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 Atypical bilateral hyperpigmented macules on the lower legs possibly due to cyclophosphamide.
Cyclophosphamide likely causes skin darkening by affecting hair follicles.
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 PHYSIOLOGIC SKIN CHANGES ASSOCIATED WITH PREGNANCY
