Research
180-210 / 1000+ resultsresearch Novel insights into hair structure and the effects of chemical stressors on hair and skin using label-free advanced light microscopy
Chemical stressors damage hair structure but the skin's outer layer protects living cells.
research The color of human hair
Human hair color is determined by melanin types and genetic factors.
research Growth Inhibition and Transient Temperature Measurement of Laser-Irradiated Hair Fibers and Follicles
Laser treatment can inhibit hair growth and different hair colors reach different temperatures when lasered.
research Melanocyte Pygmentation – Friend or Foe on the Route to Melanoma
Darker skin provides more protection against UV damage and cancer.
research Post-tyrosinase Inhibition of Melanogenesis by Melatonin in Hair Follicles in Vitro
research Towards a “free radical theory of graying”: melanocyte apoptosis in the aging human hair follicle is an indicator of oxidative stress induced tissue damage
Oxidative stress causes hair to gray by damaging and killing pigment cells.
research Update on Melasma—Part I: Pathogenesis
Melasma's causes include genetics, sun exposure, hormones, and oxidative stress, and understanding these can help create better treatments.
research Polyphenolization:Hair Browning by Phenolic Adhesion,Ambient Oxygen, and Transition Metals
A new hair dye method uses polyphenols and oxidation to create a long-lasting brown color on gray hair.
research 적하수오 에탄올 추출물의 melanin 합성 촉진효과
PMEE may help reverse greying hair by boosting melanin production.
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 Regulation of melanin synthesis in goat hair follicles by melatonin through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway
research Activity evaluation of epidermo-melanin unit and dermal damage in melasma
Melasma results from changes in the skin's pigment and structure, not just pigment cell growth.
research Disorders of Hair Pigmentation
Hair color is determined by melanin and can be affected by genetic conditions like albinism.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Photochemical alterations in human hair. I. Artificial irradiation and investigations of hair proteins
Melanin in black hair protects it from sun damage better than light-brown hair.
research Critical Role of ATP-P2X7 Axis in UV-Induced Melanogenesis
ATP increases melanin production in skin after UV exposure, with the P2X7 receptor being crucial for this process.
research 1200 The biology of melanocytes
Melanocytes are cells that make skin and hair color and help protect skin from sun damage.
research ABSENCE OF H2O2 BREAKDOWN IN HUMAN HAIR MEDULLA IMPLICATIONS IN FOLLICULAR MELANOGENESIS
Human hair medulla doesn't break down hydrogen peroxide, which may affect hair color formation.
research Exploring the potential effect and mechanisms of protocatechuic acid on human hair follicle melanocytes
Protocatechuic acid can reduce melanin production and boost antioxidant activity in hair follicles.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research Senile hair graying: H 2 O 2 ‐mediated oxidative stress affects human hair color by blunting methionine sulfoxide repair
Gray hair is caused by hydrogen peroxide buildup, which damages hair color repair.
research The melanocyte photosensory system in the human skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research The PER3 rs772027021 SNP induces pigmentation phenotypes of dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria
The PER3 rs772027021 SNP may cause mild skin pigmentation changes in a new subtype of dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria.
research 780 Novel mechanism of UVB-mediated pigmentation through the axis of ATP-P2X7
Scientists discovered a new way UVB light increases skin pigmentation through the ATP-P2X7 pathway.
research Influence of Depigmenting Chemical Agents on Hair and Skin Color in Yellow (Pheomelanic) and Black (Eumelanic) Mice
Certain chemicals cause hair graying in black mice but not yellow mice.
research Viewpoint 3
Oxidative stress plays a significant role in vitiligo, and both skin and non-skin cells may be involved.
research Dopa oxidase activity in the hair, skin and ocular melanocytes is increased in the presence of stressed fibroblasts
Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.
research The Hair Pigmentation Unit and Hair Graying
Hair color is determined by melanins produced in hair cells.
research Stable analytic extrapolations in the theory of strong interactions
Oxidative stress causes hair graying by damaging hair follicle melanocytes more than skin melanocytes.
