PRP therapy helps skin heal and improve by promoting cell growth and repair.
research The Cell Biology of Human Hair Follicle Pigmentation
We need more research on human hair follicle pigmentation, not just mouse models.
research Expression and Tissue Distribution Analysis of Angiotensin II in Sheep Skins Associated with White and Black Coat Colors
Angiotensin II is found at higher levels in black sheep skin and may influence coat color.
research Melanocyte Subpopulation Turnover During the Human Hair Cycle: An Immunohistochemical Study
Melanocyte activity in hair follicles is linked to the hair growth cycle, being active in growth phases and inactive in rest phases.
research Murine Skin as a Target for Melatonin Bioregulation
Melatonin affects mouse skin and may regulate skin functions.
research A Neuroendocrinological Perspective on Human Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research The Redox Biochemistry of Human Hair Pigmentation
Human hair color is influenced by complex biochemical processes involving enzymes and reactive oxygen species.
research Deficiency in Nucleotide Excision Repair Family Gene Activity, Especially ERCC3, Is Associated with Non-Pigmented Hair Fiber Growth
Low ERCC3 gene activity is linked to non-pigmented hair growth.
research The Biology of Melanocytes
Melanocytes are cells that make skin and hair color and help protect skin from sun damage.
research The Bacterial Metabolite, Butyrate, Prolongs Anagen and Promotes Autophagy, Mitochondrial Activity, Melanogenesis and Antimicrobial Peptide Production in Human Scalp Hair Follicles
