research Glycine Inhibits Melanogenesis in Vitro and Causes Hypopigmentation in Vivo
Glycine reduces skin pigmentation by lowering melanin production.
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 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid Promoted Hair Pigmentation Through β-Catenin and Its Target Genes
A substance called TCQA could potentially darken hair by activating certain genes and increasing melanin.
research Efficacy of an Agonist of α-MSH, the Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-20, in Hair Pigmentation
Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 may help reduce hair greying and increase melanin production.
research A Comparative Study of Skin Transcriptomes and Histological Observations for Black and White Hair Colors of Giant Panda
The study found that giant pandas have more melanin in black hair follicles than white, with gene expression differences that could affect hair color and skin health.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo and Hair Graying
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Role of Dermal Factors Involved in Regulating the Melanin and Melanogenesis of Mammalian Melanocytes in Normal and Abnormal Skin
Dermal factors are crucial in regulating melanin production in skin.
research Chemically Induced Depigmentation of Skin and Hair
Some chemicals can permanently or temporarily remove color from skin and hair, which can be distressing and is not well-regulated in cosmetics.
research The Removal of Unwanted Hair Using a Ruby Laser
Ruby laser hair removal significantly reduces hair density.
research Theoretical Considerations in Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research Topical Liposome Delivery of Molecules to Hair Follicles in Mice
Liposomes can safely and effectively deliver substances to mouse hair follicles, potentially useful for human hair treatments.

Blocking BACE1 and BACE2 enzymes causes hair color loss in mice.
research Application of Multiphoton Microscopy in Dermatological Studies: A Mini-Review
Multiphoton microscopy is a promising tool for detailed skin imaging and could improve patient care if its challenges are addressed.
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 A Discourse on Human Hair Fibers and Reflections on the Conservation of Drug Molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Effect of Adenovirus-Mediated Expression of Sonic Hedgehog Gene on Hair Regrowth in Mice With Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Using a gene therapy with the Sonic Hedgehog gene helps mice regrow hair faster after losing it from chemotherapy.
research Age-Related Hair Changes in Men: Mechanisms and Management of Alopecia and Graying
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.
research An Update on Drug-Induced Pigmentation
Some drugs can cause skin and hair color changes, often reversible when the drug is stopped.
research Influence of Oxidative and Reductive Treatment on Human Hair: Analysis of Hair Damage
Chemical treatments and daily stresses damage hair, especially the cuticle layer.
