Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.

Melanoma development can be linked to the breakdown of skin's melanin-producing units.

Men and women have different levels and production of brain steroids, which may affect their risk for certain brain disorders.

Glycine reduces skin pigmentation by lowering melanin production.

Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.

Rice bran extract boosts melanin production in hair follicles.

BB4CMU rice bran oil may help treat hair loss and gray hair.

The human scalp hair bulb contains different types of melanocytes with varying abilities to produce melanin.

The study found markers indicating that cells responsible for hair color are differentiating in specific areas of the hair follicle.

New treatments for excessive hair growth in women include insulin modulators and enzyme inhibitors.

Human skin and hair color variation is mainly due to melanin produced by a few genes, with melanin protecting against sun damage.

Electrical epilation damages hair follicles and surrounding skin, likely preventing hair regrowth.

Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.

Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.

Vitiligo causes white skin patches and is linked to autoimmune issues.

Liposomes can safely and effectively deliver substances to mouse hair follicles, potentially useful for human hair treatments.

Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.

Using a gene therapy with the Sonic Hedgehog gene helps mice regrow hair faster after losing it from chemotherapy.

Men's hair loss is caused by hormones and genes, and can be treated with medication and surgery, while graying is due to aging and has no prevention except dyeing.

Patient-derived melanocytes can potentially treat vitiligo by restoring skin pigmentation.

Scientists discovered a new way UVB light increases skin pigmentation through the ATP-P2X7 pathway.

The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.

Correct skin biopsy techniques are crucial to avoid misdiagnosis of skin diseases.

As people age, their hair follicles produce less pigment, leading to gray and white hair, due to factors like reduced enzyme activity and damage to melanocyte DNA.

The document concludes that patients with skin of color need specialized dermatological care and education to manage unique skin conditions effectively.
