research Therapeutic Potential of Patient iPSC-Derived Melanocytes in Autologous Transplantation
Patient-derived melanocytes can potentially treat vitiligo by restoring skin pigmentation.
research APCDD1 Is a Novel Wnt Inhibitor Mutated in Hereditary Hypotrichosis Simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research Paracrine Secreted Frizzled-Related Protein 4 Inhibits Melanocyte Differentiation in Hair Follicle
A protein called sFRP4 from skin cells stops the development of pigment-producing cells in hair.
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 Single-Cell Transcriptomics Reveals the Molecular Anatomy of Sheep Hair Follicle Heterogeneity and Wool Curvature
The research identified genes that explain why some sheep have curly wool and others have straight wool.
research Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha Inhibitor Associated Psoriasiform Alopecia
Some medications for inflammation can cause a condition with scalp rashes and hair loss, often linked to Crohn's disease, and may require treatment changes to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Stabilizes Hemidesmosomes in Keratinocytes
Wnt/β-catenin signaling is important for keeping skin cell attachment structures stable.
research News in Brief
Researchers discovered potential origins and new treatments for skin cancer, including biomarkers for melanoma and therapies that reduce tumor growth.

Stem cells control their future role by changing ERK signal timing, affecting tissue regeneration and cancer.
research Dermal Adipose Tissue Secretes HGF to Promote Human Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Fat under the skin releases HGF which helps hair grow and gain color.
research Regeneration of Mouse Skin Melanocyte Stem Cells In Vivo and In Vitro
The research found ways to activate melanocyte stem cells for potential treatment of skin depigmentation conditions.
research The Pathobiology of Skin Aging
Skin aging is a complex process influenced by various factors, leading to wrinkles and sagging, and should be considered a disease due to its health impacts.
research Immunolocalization of Telomerases in Human Hairs Identifies Proliferating Cells in the Bulb Matrix and Outer Root Sheath
