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 Physiological Functions of PP2A: Lessons from Genetically Modified Mice
Mice studies show that Protein Phosphatase 2A is crucial for cell growth, development, and disease prevention.
research Neuroimmunoregulation of Androgens in the Adrenal Gland and the Skin
Cytokines and neuropeptides are key in controlling androgen levels, affecting skin and hair conditions.
research Past and Future Strategies for GPCR Deorphanization
Finding functions for unknown GPCRs is hard but key for making new drugs.
research Stabilization of Beta-Catenin Promotes Melanocyte Specification at the Expense of the Schwann Cell Lineage

Hair follicle melanocytes die during hair regression.
research Immune Privilege and Alopecia Areata
Restoring immune privilege in hair follicles could help treat certain types of hair loss.
research Epimorphin Expression During Human Fetal Hair Follicle Development
Epimorphin, a protein, plays a key role in the development of hair follicles in human fetuses, but it doesn't help in maintaining the stem cell population of the follicular skin layer.
research Biology of the Skin and Dermatological Disease
Knowing how skin works and its diseases helps doctors diagnose and treat skin conditions better.
research Canine Noninflammatory Alopecia: A Comprehensive Evaluation of Common and Distinguishing Histological Characteristics
Different types of dog hair loss are linked to problems starting the hair growth phase and early hair cycle ending.
research Comparison of the Skin Penetration of Garcinia Mangostana Extract in Particulate and Non-Particulate Form

research Genetic Variation at the MC1R Locus and the Time Since Loss of Human Body Hair
Humans lost body hair relatively recently in evolution.
research Regulation of Melanocyte Stem Cell Behavior by the Niche Microenvironment
The environment around melanocyte stem cells is key for hair regeneration and color, with certain injuries affecting hair color and potential treatments for pigmentation disorders.
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 Sox2 in the Dermal Papilla Regulates Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Sox2 controls hair color by affecting pigment production in hair follicles.
