93 citations,
October 2006 in “The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology” Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.
3 citations,
November 2023 in “Frontiers in cell and developmental biology” Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
November 2023 in “Frontiers in cell and developmental biology” Hair aging is caused by stress, hormones, inflammation, and DNA damage affecting hair growth and color.
1 citations,
September 2023 in “Stem cell research & therapy” Mesenchymal stem cells could help treat aging-related diseases better than current methods.
1 citations,
