PDGF-BB helps young melanocytes grow but stops mature ones from growing, and it makes melanocytes more specialized.

ILK is essential for skin development, pigmentation, and healing.

Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.

Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.

Treating vitiligo with stem cells and melanocytes from hair, along with UVB light, works better than without the light.

Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.

Survivors of Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis need ongoing care for various long-term health problems.

Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.

Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.

Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.

Lenalidomide helps hair follicle stem cells turn into melanocytes, which may improve repigmentation in vitiligo.

Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.

Fetal hair follicles have melanocytes with melanosomes at different stages, which are broken down into pigment particles in keratinocytes.

Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.

Melanocytes appear in fetal skin early, but their development details are still unclear.

Melatonin may inhibit melanoma growth and has potential as a cancer therapy aid, but its effects on human skin pigmentation need more research.

Dermal factors are crucial in regulating melanin production in skin.

Melanocytes in the outer root sheath are likely stem cells that grow fast but stay immature.

Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.

Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.

Researchers successfully grew horse skin cells that produce pigment from hair follicle samples.

Melanocytes are important for normal body functions and have potential uses in regenerative medicine and disease treatment.

Activating β-catenin increases melanocytes and decreases Schwann cells.

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.

A substance called TCQA could potentially darken hair by activating certain genes and increasing melanin.

People with alopecia areata may be more likely to have a certain type of hearing loss.

A specific group of early-stage melanocytes is reduced in vitiligo-affected skin, which may explain treatment resistance.

Surgical repigmentation can permanently restore color to white hair in vitiligo patients.

Surgical therapies for vitiligo vary in effectiveness, with combination therapy and medical tattooing recommended for better results.

Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
