research From hair colour to diagnosis
Hair color is influenced by genetics and can indicate certain health conditions.
research Somatic mutations distinguish melanocyte subpopulations in human skin
Hair follicles protect melanocytes from sun damage, helping them replenish skin.
research Increased PHGDH expression uncouples hair follicle cycle progression and promotes inappropriate melanin accumulation
Increased PHGDH expression causes early melanin buildup in hair follicles.
research 1339 Casein kinase 1 inhibition in keratinocytes enhances the migration of melanocyte precursors in the hair follicle via KitL/c-Kit signaling pathway
Blocking casein kinase 1 in skin cells can help melanocyte precursors move better, potentially helping with conditions like vitiligo or gray hair.
research The potential role of fibroblast‐derived multi‐peptide factors in activation of growth factors and β‐Catenin in hair follicle cells
Multi-peptide factors from fibroblasts may stimulate hair growth by increasing growth factors and β-catenin in hair cells.
research Influence of prostaglandin F2α and its analogues on hair regrowth and follicular melanogenesis in a murine model
Prostaglandin F2alpha and related compounds can increase hair growth and darken hair in mice.
research When the Circadian Clock Meets the Melanin Pigmentary System
Silencing certain circadian clock genes increases skin pigmentation.
research Repigmentation of leukoderma in a piebald patient associated with a novel c-KIT gene mutation, G592E, of the tyrosine kinase domain
A new gene mutation may allow some piebaldism patients to regain skin color in white patches.
research Perifollicular Melanocyte Regeneration in Bullous Pemphigoid
Melanocytes can regenerate around hair follicles in bullous pemphigoid, especially in patients with darker skin.
research The Roles of S100 Proteins and RAGE in Melanoma
High S100B protein levels indicate poor survival in advanced melanoma.
research Origin, Clinical Presentation, and Diagnosis of Facial Hypermelanoses
Facial dark spots can be caused by the sun, genetics, makeup, or medicine, and are diagnosed by patient history and skin tests.
research Melanoblasts' Proper Location and Timed Differentiation Depend on Notch/RBP-J Signaling in Postnatal Hair Follicles
Notch/RBP-J signaling is crucial for proper placement and timing of melanocyte development in hair follicles.
research Gene Expression Profiles of Melanocytes Over-Expressing miR-5110 in Alpaca
miR-5110 affects alpaca pigmentation by altering specific gene expressions.
research Melandrium firmumExtract Promotes Hair Growth by Modulating 5α-Reductase Activity and Gene Expression in C57BL/6J Mice
Melandrium firmum extract helps mice grow hair by blocking a hair loss enzyme and changing hair growth genes.
research Melan-A Positive cells significantly expressed in immune-targeted follicles of Alopecia Areata
Melanocytes may trigger the immune response in alopecia areata, affecting hair regrowth.
research Topical application of synthetic melanin promotes tissue repair
Synthetic melanin applied to skin speeds up wound healing.
research FilaggrinHigh melanomas exhibit active FGFR and allergic signatures with impaired GNA14 and Th1 signatures
FilaggrinHigh melanomas have active FGFR signaling and weak GNA14 and Th1 signatures.
research Classic versus non‐classic: A survival Kit for life in the skin
Melanocytes in different body areas have evolved to perform specific functions based on their location.
research Hair repigmentation in microcystic adnexal carcinoma
Hair repigmentation can indicate malignancy and should be investigated.
research Author response: Crosstalk with keratinocytes causes GNAQ oncogene specificity in melanoma
Keratinocytes can reverse the effects of the GNAQ oncogene, inhibiting melanoma cell growth.
research RAGE and Its Ligands in Melanoma
RAGE is a potential target for melanoma treatment, but its effectiveness is uncertain due to variable expression levels.
research Repigmentation through Melanocyte Regeneration in Vitiligo
UV light can help stimulate the growth of new pigment cells from hair follicles in people with vitiligo.
research Human skin color: Origin, variation and significance
Human skin and hair color variation is mainly due to melanin produced by a few genes, with melanin protecting against sun damage.
research BJD Editor's Choice
Some Greek melanoma patients have gene mutations linked to increased cancer risk, a new color feature helps diagnose melanoma, the incidence of a skin condition in the Netherlands is rare, and a gene possibly affects male-pattern baldness.
research Pigmentation Effect of Rice Bran Extracted Minerals Comprising Soluble Silicic Acids
Rice bran extract can increase melanin production and may help treat melanin deficiency.
research Betamethasone actives cultured amelanotic melanocytes derived from outer root sheath of human hair follicle
Betamethasone activates and increases the growth of certain skin cells from hair follicles.
research The cell biology of human hair follicle pigmentation
We need more research on human hair follicle pigmentation, not just mouse models.
research Epimedium brevicornum Maxim. Extract exhibits pigmentation by melanin biosynthesis and melanosome biogenesis/transfer
Epimedium extract helps increase skin pigmentation and could be a new treatment for conditions with reduced pigmentation.
research Dermal papilla regulation of hair growth and pigmentation
Dermal papilla cells are key for hair growth and color, influencing hair type and size, and their interaction with stem cells could help treat hair loss and color disorders.
