Two genes, Tabby and Ticked, determine cat coat patterns.
research Biology of estrogens in skin: implications for skin aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Forensic DNA phenotyping: the need for proportionate regulation and judicial clarity in law enforcement
Unified regulations and ethical guidelines are needed for fair use of forensic DNA phenotyping.
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 Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth.
Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Regulation of hair follicle development by exosomes derived from dermal papilla cells
Exosomes from dermal papilla cells can help grow hair and might treat hair loss.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Topical Application of a Protein Kinase C Inhibitor Reduces Skin and Hair Pigmentation
Applying a specific inhibitor lightens skin and hair color.
research Macroenvironmental Regulation of Hair Cycling and Collective Regenerative Behavior
Hair growth is influenced by various body and external factors, and neighboring hairs communicate to synchronize regeneration.
research Multiple Roles of Integrin-Linked Kinase in Epidermal Development, Maturation and Pigmentation Revealed by Molecular Profiling

research Effects of the selective TrkA agonist gambogic amide on pigmentation and growth of human hair follicles in vitro
Gambogic Amide helps maintain hair color and promotes hair growth.
research Regulation of the human hair cycle
The conclusion is that effectively treating hair disorders is difficult due to the complex factors affecting hair growth and more research is needed to improve treatments.
research Down-regulation of genes related to photoaging and inflammation in UVBirradiated mice premature skin photoaging by linoleic acid-rich tempeh oil
Tempeh oil rich in linoleic acid may protect against skin aging caused by UV light.
research Endocrine Regulation of Hair Growth and Loss: Current Evidence and Clinical Implications
Hormones significantly affect hair growth and loss, requiring personalized treatment.

Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
research Hormonal regulation of hair follicles exhibits a biological paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Molecular Regulation of Melanocyte Senescence
The article concludes that while we understand a lot about how melanocytes age and how this can prevent cancer, there are still unanswered questions about certain pathways and genes involved.
