research Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Regulates the Proliferation and Differentiation of Human Melanocytes in a Differentiation-Stage-Specific Manner
PDGF-BB helps young melanocytes grow but stops mature ones from growing, and it makes melanocytes more specialized.
research Multiple Roles of Integrin-Linked Kinase in Epidermal Development, Maturation, and Pigmentation Revealed by Molecular Profiling
ILK is essential for skin development, pigmentation, and healing.
research Heterogeneity of Neural Crest-Derived Melanocytes
Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.
research Biology of Melanocytes in Mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Comparison Treatment of Vitiligo by Co-Culture of Melanocytes Derived from Hair Follicle with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells with and without Narrowband UVB
Treating vitiligo with stem cells and melanocytes from hair, along with UVB light, works better than without the light.
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 Long-Term Complications of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome/Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis: The Spectrum of Chronic Problems in Survivors Necessitates Multidisciplinary Follow-Up
Survivors of Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis need ongoing care for various long-term health problems.
research Stress-Sensing in the Human Greying Hair Follicle: Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) Depletion in Hair Bulb Melanocytes in Canities-Prone Scalp
Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.
research Finasteride Inhibits Melanogenesis Through Regulation of the Adenylate Cyclase in Melanocytes and Melanoma Cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo and Hair Graying
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Lenalidomide Augments Differentiation of Cultured Hair Follicle Derived Melanocyte Stem Cells Into Functional Melanocytes
Lenalidomide helps hair follicle stem cells turn into melanocytes, which may improve repigmentation in vitiligo.
research Aging of the Hair Follicle Pigmentation System
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research The Distribution of Melanocytes and the Degradation of Melanosomes in Fetal Hair Follicles
Fetal hair follicles have melanocytes with melanosomes at different stages, which are broken down into pigment particles in keratinocytes.
research Age-Induced Hair Greying: The Multiple Effects of Oxidative Stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research Melanocytes in Human Embryonic and Fetal Skin: A Review and New Findings
Melanocytes appear in fetal skin early, but their development details are still unclear.
research An Exclusive Review of Melatonin Effects on Mammalian Melanocytes and Melanoma
Melatonin may inhibit melanoma growth and has potential as a cancer therapy aid, but its effects on human skin pigmentation need more research.
research Role of Dermal Factors Involved in Regulating the Melanin and Melanogenesis of Mammalian Melanocytes in Normal and Abnormal Skin
Dermal factors are crucial in regulating melanin production in skin.
research Location and Fine Structure of Melanocytes in Human Fetal Scalp Hair Follicles
Melanocytes in the outer root sheath are likely stem cells that grow fast but stay immature.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research The Melanocyte Photosensory System in Human Skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research Culturing of Melanocytes from the Equine Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath
Researchers successfully grew horse skin cells that produce pigment from hair follicle samples.
research Melanocytes in Regenerative Medicine Applications and Disease Modeling
Melanocytes are important for normal body functions and have potential uses in regenerative medicine and disease treatment.
research Stabilization of Beta-Catenin Promotes Melanocyte Specification at the Expense of the Schwann Cell Lineage
Activating β-catenin increases melanocytes and decreases Schwann cells.
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.
research 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid Promoted Hair Pigmentation Through β-Catenin and Its Target Genes
A substance called TCQA could potentially darken hair by activating certain genes and increasing melanin.
research Audiological Abnormalities in Patients with Alopecia Areata
People with alopecia areata may be more likely to have a certain type of hearing loss.
research Exploring the Role of Melanocyte Subpopulations in Vitiligo
A specific group of early-stage melanocytes is reduced in vitiligo-affected skin, which may explain treatment resistance.
research Surgical Management of Leukotrichia
Surgical repigmentation can permanently restore color to white hair in vitiligo patients.
research Classification of Surgical Therapies in Vitiligo
Surgical therapies for vitiligo vary in effectiveness, with combination therapy and medical tattooing recommended for better results.
