research Melatonin: A Cutaneous Perspective
Melatonin is good for skin health and may help treat skin conditions.
research On the Role of Melatonin in Skin Physiology and Pathology
Melatonin is important for skin health and protection, and can be made by the skin or applied to it.
research Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy for Investigating Murine Telogen Skin After Spontaneous or Depilation-Induced Hair Growth
EPR spectroscopy showed that spontaneous hair growth results in thicker skin and less pigmented hair than depilation-induced growth.
research Differential Effects of Melatonin as a Broad Range UV-Damage Preventive Dermato-Endocrine Regulator
Melatonin protects skin against UV damage by regulating various cellular processes.
research Zinc as an Ambivalent but Potent Modulator of Murine Hair Growth In Vivo: Preliminary Observations
Zinc can both inhibit and stimulate mouse hair growth, and might help recover hair after chemotherapy.
research Genetic Ablation of Myelin Protein Zero-Like 3 in Mice Increases Energy Expenditure, Improves Glycemic Control, and Reduces Hepatic Lipid Synthesis
Removing myelin protein zero-like 3 in mice leads to better metabolism and resistance to obesity.
research Transgenic Endothelin 3 Regulates Murine Pigment Production and Coat Color
The gene Endothelin 3 makes mice's fur darker by increasing pigment cells and pigment levels.
research Piecing Together the Pigment-Type Switching Puzzle
The document concludes that MGRN1 affects mouse fur color by interfering with a receptor's signaling, but its full role in the body is still unknown.
research Grey, Curly, and Short-Haired Swiss Holstein Cattle Show Genetic Traces of the Simmental Breed
Swiss Holstein cattle with curly, short hair carry genes from the Simmental breed.

mTORC1 activity is important for hair growth and color, and targeting it could help treat hair loss and greying.
research Efficacy of an Agonist of α-MSH, the Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-20, in Hair Pigmentation
Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 may help reduce hair greying and increase melanin production.
research A Discourse on Human Hair Fibers and Reflections on the Conservation of Drug Molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Transcriptomic Regulation of Seasonal Coat Color Change in Hares
Genes related to pigmentation, body rhythms, and behavior change during hares' seasonal coat color transition, with a common genetic mechanism in two hare species.
research Tryptophan in Human Hair: Correlation with Pigmentation
Men have more tryptophan in their hair than women, and it increases with age and is higher in darker and grey or white hair.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation: Mechanisms and Factors Influencing Melanin Production
Hair color is determined by melanin produced and transferred in hair follicles.
research The Mechanisms of Fur Development and Color Formation in American Mink Revealed Using Comparative Transcriptomics
The research found specific genes and pathways that control fur development and color in young American minks.
research Studies of Normal Moult and Artificially Induced Regeneration of Pelage in Peromyscus
Artificially inducing hair regrowth in mice can change the normal pattern and timing of hair growth, with minimal color differences between old and new fur.
research Skin Toxicity of Anti-Cancer Therapy
Anti-cancer treatments can cause reversible hair loss, skin sensitivity, pigmentation changes, nail damage, and skin reactions, with a need for more research on managing these side effects.
research Melatonin Membrane Receptors in Peripheral Tissues: Distribution and Functions
Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
