December 2015 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This review discusses recent research on melanocyte stem cells and explores the differences between mouse and human skin, but it reports no new clinical results.
8 citations
,
January 2017 in “Stem Cells International” This study found that overexpression of sFRP4 in skin cells reduces Wnt signaling activation, leading to decreased melanocyte differentiation in regenerating hair follicles.
260 citations
,
June 2011 in “Cell” This study found that Wnt signaling in the hair follicle is crucial for coordinating the behavior of epithelial and melanocyte stem cells, which drives hair regeneration and melanocyte differentiation in mice.
