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 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 Stimulation of melanogenesis by Carthamus tinctorius floret extract in B16F10 murine melanoma cells
Safflower extract increases melanin production in certain skin cells without harming them.
research Two novel CreERT2 transgenic mouse lines to study melanocytic cells in vivo
New mouse models help study melanocytic cells for melanoma research.
research HGF/SF Increases Number of Skin Melanocytes but Does Not Alter Quality or Quantity of Follicular Melanogenesis
HGF/SF increases skin melanocytes but doesn't change melanin type or amount.
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.
research Differentiation of CD34+ Human Hair Follicle Stem Cells into Functional Melanocytes
CD34+ hair follicle stem cells can become melanin-producing cells for treating skin conditions.
research Survival of patchwork melanoblasts is dependent upon their number in the hair follicle at the end of embryogenesis
More melanoblasts in hair follicles mean better survival and proper hair pigmentation.
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 Melanocyte dysfunctions: future and promise of stem cells
Melanocyte stem cells hold promise for skin regeneration and treating pigmentation issues.
research Melanocyte Stem Cell Maintenance and Hair Graying
Hair graying happens because certain cells aren't maintained properly.
research Hyperactivation of sympathetic nerves drives depletion of melanocyte stem cells
Stress can cause hair to turn gray by depleting stem cells.
research Pharmacological BACE1 and BACE2 inhibition induces hair depigmentation by inhibiting PMEL17 processing in mice
Blocking BACE1 and BACE2 enzymes causes hair color loss in mice.
research Hair Repigmentation as a Melanoma Warning Sign
Hair turning darker can be a sign of skin cancer.
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 Neuropilin 2 expression and function in melanocytes and melanoma
Neuropilin 2 may be a biomarker for melanoma and affects melanocyte behavior.
research Preservation of melanoblasts of white hair follicles of segmental vitiligo lesions: A preliminary study
White hair follicles in vitiligo have fewer and less functional melanocytes.
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 640 Exploring the synergic effects of a plant and a peptide on hair follicle pigmentation
The combination of a plant extract and a peptide can increase hair pigmentation and may reverse greying.
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 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 Premature Graying of Hair: A Comprehensive Review and Recent Insights
Premature graying of hair is mainly caused by genetics, stress, and environment, with potential treatments being explored.
research Brain and muscle Arnt-like protein-1 (BMAL1) controls circadian cell proliferation and susceptibility to UVB-induced DNA damage in the epidermis
BMAL1 controls skin cell growth and UV damage risk, peaking at night.
research Tyrosinase Depletion Prevents the Maturation of Melanosomes in the Mouse Hair Follicle
Reducing Tyrosinase prevents mature color pigment cells from forming in mouse hair.
research Differentiation of cultured hair follicle neural crest stem cells into functional melanocytes
Hair follicle stem cells can become melanocytes to help treat skin depigmentation.
research Mechanism of action and promising clinical application of melatonin from a dermatological perspective
Melatonin may help treat skin conditions.
research Finasteride inhibits melanogenesis through regulation of the adenylate cyclase in melanocytes and melanoma cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
research The silver locus product (Silv/gp100/Pmel17) as a new tool for the analysis of melanosome transfer in human melanocyte–keratinocyte co‐culture
The new assay can track and measure melanosome transfer between skin cells, confirming filopodia's role in this process.
research Efficacy of an agonist ofα-MSH, the palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20, in hair pigmentation
Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 may help reduce hair greying and increase melanin production.
