30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Hair melanocytes as neuro-endocrine sensors—Pigments for our imagination
Hair melanocytes help the skin respond to stress and regulate hair pigmentation.
research Involvement of the central hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in hair growth and melanogenesis among different mouse strains
Stress can slow hair growth and affect skin color by impacting the body's stress response system.
research The human hair follicle has established a fully functional peripheral equivalent of the hypothamalic‐pituitary‐adrenal‐axis (HPA)
Human hair follicles can produce stress hormones like the body's main stress response system.
research Serotoninergic and melatoninergic systems are fully expressed in human skin
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin.
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 Endocrine systems of the skin
The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.
research Characterization of the serotoninergic system in the C57BL/6 mouse skin
Mouse skin can produce and process serotonin, with variations depending on hair cycle, body location, and mouse strain.
research Exploring the “brain-skin connection”: Leads and lessons from the hair follicle
Hair follicles on the scalp interact with and respond to the nervous system, influencing their own behavior and growth.
research Spatiotemporal Expression, Distribution, and Processing of POMC and POMC-derived Peptides in Murine Skin
POMC-derived peptides are important for skin functions like immune response and stress management.
research Stress-related skin disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research A neuroendocrinological perspective on human hair follicle pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
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 in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
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 Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Plasma β‐Endorphin Concentrations During Natural and Artificially Induced Winter Hair Growth in Mink (Mustela vison)
Melatonin and cortisol affect mink winter hair growth, but β-endorphin levels do not.
research The human skin as a hormone target and an endocrine gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Hormone-related hair disorders - from clinical needs to new therapeutic perspectives
New treatments targeting insulin, blood flow, and inflammation could improve hormone-related hair conditions with fewer side effects.
