Hair graying may be caused by stem cell depletion from stress or melanocyte damage.
research Sox2 in the Dermal Papilla Regulates Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Sox2 controls hair color by affecting pigment production in hair follicles.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation: Mechanisms and Factors Influencing Melanin Production
Hair color is determined by melanin produced and transferred in hair follicles.
research MTORC1 Activity Negatively Regulates Human Hair Follicle Growth and Pigmentation
High mTORC1 activity slows hair growth and causes it to lose color.
research Topobiology of Human Pigmentation: P-Cadherin Selectively Stimulates Hair Follicle Melanogenesis
P-cadherin is crucial for hair follicle pigmentation but not skin pigmentation.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
