This study found that splenic melanosis in C57BL/6 mice is associated with synchronized skin melanization during hair cycles, but decreases with age.

This study found that a laboratory model using nude mice can produce human hair follicles with amino acid compositions resembling both normal and trichothiodystrophy-affected human scalp hair over extended periods.

In this case report, a 22-year-old female was diagnosed with follicular Dowling-Degos disease based on clinical and histological findings, with symptoms including skin lesions confined to hair follicles. The report emphasizes the importance of differentiating this rare variant from similar conditions for proper management.

This study found that Philippines stingless bee propolis extract promotes hair growth in mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and stimulating hair follicle development.

This study describes how the argan oil industry in southwestern Morocco, originally controlled by Amazigh women, has shifted to being largely dominated by the state and businessmen, with the majority of women now only involved in traditional nut cracking, despite mechanization of other production steps.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing HGF/SF are more susceptible to UVA-induced melanoma, with melanin in the papillary dermis interacting with UVA to induce melanoma.

This study provides evidence that Fernblock® upregulates antioxidant pathways in cultured keratinocytes, potentially protecting against damage from fine pollutant particles.

In this study, researchers found that cyclophosphamide treatment unexpectedly reduced splenic melanin deposition in a murine model, whereas this effect was down-regulated more by the normal and dystrophic catagen phase of the hair cycle.

This review discusses the role of melanocytes in skin pigmentation and UV protection, explaining their interactions with keratinocytes and highlighting their involvement in processes like melanin transfer and melanoma development, but reports no new results.

This review highlights the significance and future potential of forensic DNA phenotyping for predicting human phenotypes from crime scene DNA but reports no new results.

This review discusses recent advances in the understanding of follicular melanogenesis and its pathological changes, particularly how these changes are associated with specific disease phenotypes, but it reports no new results.

This review discusses melanocyte biology and its genetic and molecular basis, highlighting its relevance in understanding diseases like vitiligo and albinism, and reports no new findings.

This review examines the evolution of human skin pigmentation and its genetic basis, suggesting that variations might be due to a few interacting gene pairs, and reports no new research findings.

This study suggests that the phenotype of melasma in women is influenced by structural and cellular changes across the epidermal-melanin unit, not just melanocyte hypertrophy, highlighting potential roles for dermal damage repair and fibroblast senescence.

This article explains the role of melanins in hair color, focusing on their production by melanocytes, but presents no new research findings.

This article discusses the roles of different proteins in melanogenesis and proposes a hypothesis to explain the diversity of human hair pigmentation, but it reports no new experimental results.

This review explores the multifaceted roles of melanocytes in skin biology, emphasizing their potential impact on future research to prevent and treat skin diseases, but reports no new experimental results.

This paper provides a comprehensive review of melanocytes' roles in skin biology, focusing on their pigmentation and immune functions, and suggests potential research opportunities for preventing and treating skin disorders.

This study reports that melanocytes form a defined photoresponsive network in the skin that reads environmental light cycles and may influence the sleep-waking cycle similar to the pineal gland.

This article reviews the role of melanins in determining human hair color and discusses the specialized regulation of hair melanocytes during growth, with no new findings reported.

This article reviews follicular melanogenesis, detailing how melanin synthesis and its regulation in hair follicles depend on a complex interplay of cellular and molecular mechanisms, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses melanocytes' role in pigmentation, their clinical significance in conditions like vitiligo and hair graying, and highlights current research on hair follicle regeneration without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of melanin synthesis in melanoma, focusing on how melanosomal pH might regulate melanin production, and reports no new results.

In this study, silencing BMAL1 and PER1 genes increased melanogenic activity in follicular and epidermal melanocytes, suggesting that peripheral circadian clocks may regulate melanin pigmentation.

This review discusses the pathogenesis of melasma, including genetic, environmental, and hormonal factors, and highlights potential avenues for new treatments and preventive strategies, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that BMP signaling is involved in regulating melanogenesis, pigment transfer, and melanocyte migration, contributing to our understanding of skin pigmentation mechanisms.
