New genetic locations explain much of hair color variation in Europeans.
research An Integrated Transcriptome Atlas of Embryonic Hair Follicle Progenitors, Their Niche, and the Developing Skin
The study identified unique genes in hair follicle cells and their environment, suggesting these genes help organize cells for hair growth.
research Aging of the Hair Follicle Pigmentation System
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Age-Induced Hair Greying: The Multiple Effects of Oxidative Stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research Lifestyle and Physiological Factors Associated with Facial Wrinkling in Men and Women
Age, smoking, and lower BMI increase facial wrinkles; men wrinkle more than women, except in old age; pale skin and certain hormonal factors can protect against wrinkles.
research A Review of the Etiologies, Clinical Characteristics, and Treatment of Canities
Gray hair is caused by reduced melanin production or transfer issues, linked to aging and possibly health conditions, with treatments focusing on color camouflage.
research Molecular Regulatory Mechanisms in Chicken Feather Follicle Morphogenesis
The document concludes that various signaling pathways and genetic factors are crucial for chicken feather development, affecting poultry quality.
research Understanding Cancer Cells of Origin in Cutaneous Tumors
The document concludes that identifying the specific cells where skin cancers begin is important for creating better prevention, detection, and treatment methods.
research Establishment and Characterization of Human Sebocytic Progenitor Cells That Can Differentiate Into Functional Sebocytes
Researchers created human cells that can turn into sebocytes, which may help study and treat skin conditions like acne.
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 Histopathology of Aging of the Hair Follicle
Hair becomes gray and thin as we age, and while most hair loss in older people is due to genetics, there's a chance for gray hair to regain color under certain conditions.
research The TFIID Subunit TAF4 Regulates Keratinocyte Proliferation and Has Cell-Autonomous and Non-Cell-Autonomous Tumor Suppressor Activity in Mouse Epidermis
TAF4 is important for skin cell growth and helps prevent skin cancer in mice.
research Updates from the British Association of Dermatologists 91st Annual Meeting, 5-7 July 2011, London, UK
New treatments and management strategies for skin conditions like melanoma and Spitz naevi were discussed at the dermatologists' meeting.
research Neuroendocrinology of the Hair Follicle: Principles and Clinical Perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Forensic and Legal Medicine
Forensic medicine is crucial for justice and needs continuous innovation and technology integration.
research Alopecia Areata: Hyperactivity of the Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenal Axis Is a Myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Sox2 in the Dermal Papilla Regulates Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Sox2 controls hair color by affecting pigment production in hair follicles.
research Regulatory Mutations in TBX3 Disrupt Asymmetric Hair Pigmentation That Underlies Dun Camouflage Color in Horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research CD34 Defines Melanocyte Stem Cell Subpopulations With Distinct Regenerative Properties
CD34+ and CD34- melanocyte stem cells have different regenerative abilities.
research Apoptosis in Hair and Skin: A Review
The study concludes that regulating apoptosis could lead to new treatments for various skin and hair conditions.
