Researchers identified potential markers for human hair color stem cells.
research Beyond the Epidermal-Melanin-Unit: The Human Scalp Anagen Hair Bulb Is Home to Multiple Melanocyte Subpopulations of Variable Melanogenic Capacity
The human scalp has different types of pigment cells in hair follicles with varying abilities to produce pigment.
research A Preliminary Study of Melanogenic Markers in the Differentiation of the Human Hair Follicle Melanin Unit
The study found markers indicating that cells responsible for hair color are differentiating in specific areas of the hair follicle.
research A Case of Systemic Mastocytosis: An Ultrastructural and Immunohistochemical Study of Dermal Mast Cells in Relation to Activation of the Epidermal Melanin Unit
Prednisone reduces organ mast cell infiltration but does not alter the abnormal appearance of mast cells in systemic mastocytosis.
research On the Etiology of Vitiligo and Gray Hair
Melanocytes are destroyed by factors needed for melanin production, causing vitiligo and gray hair.
research Melanogenesis During the Anagen-Catagen-Telogen Transformation of the Murine Hair Cycle
Hair stops producing melanin as it transitions from the growth phase to the resting phase.
research Hair Growth Cycle Affects Hair Follicle Destruction by Ruby Laser Pulses
Ruby laser pulses best destroy hair follicles during the growth phase and effectiveness varies with laser intensity; melanin is key for targeting, and timing treatments can improve results.
research Poliosis Circumscripta: Overview And Underlying Causes

research Photochemical Alterations in Human Hair: Artificial Irradiation and Investigations of Hair Proteins
Melanin in black hair protects it from sun damage better than light-brown hair.
research Dyeing Regions of Oxidative Hair Dyes in Human Hair Investigated by Nanoscale Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry
Hair dye colors mainly target melanin granules in black hair.
research Critical Role of ATP-P2X7 Axis in UV-Induced Melanogenesis
ATP increases melanin production in skin after UV exposure, with the P2X7 receptor being crucial for this process.
research Glycine Inhibits Melanogenesis in Vitro and Causes Hypopigmentation in Vivo
Glycine reduces skin pigmentation by lowering melanin production.
research Human Hair as a Natural Sun Protection Agent: A Quantitative Study
Hair acts as a significant natural sun barrier, with protection increasing based on hair density, thickness, and melanin presence.
research The Antimycotic Agent Clotrimazole Inhibits Melanogenesis by Accelerating ERK and PI3K/Akt-Mediated Tyrosinase Degradation
Clotrimazole, an antifungal cream, may safely reduce skin pigmentation by breaking down the enzyme needed for making melanin.
research HGF/SF Increases Number of Skin Melanocytes but Does Not Alter Quality or Quantity of Follicular Melanogenesis
HGF/SF increases skin melanocytes but doesn't change melanin type or amount.
research Dopa Oxidase Activity in Hair, Skin, and Ocular Melanocytes Is Increased in the Presence of Stressed Fibroblasts
Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.
research Qualitative Investigation of Fresh Human Scalp Hair with Full-Field Optical Coherence Tomography
Melanin density affects hair color, and this method can help in cosmetic assessments and diagnosing hair diseases.
research Pigmentation Effect of Rice Bran Extract in Hair Follicle-Like Tissue and Organ Culture Models
