Three specific genetic variants cause severe skin issues in children with EBS, highlighting the need for early genetic screening.
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 Dopamine Is a Novel, Direct Inducer of Catagen in Human Scalp Hair Follicles In Vitro
Dopamine stops hair growth and pigment production in human scalp hair follicles.
research Dermal Adipose Tissue Secretes HGF to Promote Human Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Fat under the skin releases HGF which helps hair grow and gain color.
research Loss of Epidermal Melanin Unit Integrity in Human Skin During Melanoma Genesis
Melanoma development can be linked to the breakdown of skin's melanin-producing units.
research Epimedium Brevicornum Maxim Extract Enhances Melanin Biosynthesis and Melanosome Biogenesis/Transfer
Epimedium extract helps increase skin pigmentation and could be a new treatment for conditions with reduced pigmentation.
research Glycine Inhibits Melanogenesis in Vitro and Causes Hypopigmentation in Vivo
Glycine reduces skin pigmentation by lowering melanin production.
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 The Silver Locus Product (Silv/gp100/Pmel17) as a New Tool for the Analysis of Melanosome Transfer in Human Melanocyte–Keratinocyte Co-Culture
The new assay can track and measure melanosome transfer between skin cells, confirming filopodia's role in this process.
research Biology of Melanocytes in Mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Dermal White Adipose Tissue Enhances Proliferation, Pigmentation, and Hair Shaft Elongation in Human Hair Follicles Ex Vivo
Fat under the skin can help hair grow longer, darker, and increase cell growth.
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 Hypotrichosis Congenita (KRT71 Mutation) in Hereford Cattle in Uruguay
A KRT71 mutation in Hereford cattle in Uruguay causes thin, curly hair and scaly skin.
research Adam10 Haploinsufficiency Causes Freckle-Like Macules in Hairless Mice
A mutation in the Adam10 gene causes freckle-like spots on Hairless mice.
research Hair Repigmentation in Microcystic Adnexal Carcinoma
