research Pigmentation of Regenerated Hairs After Wounding
Regenerated hairs can regain their color if the wound occurs during a certain stage of hair growth, and this process is helped by specific skin cells and proteins.
research Vitamin A in Skin and Hair: An Update
Vitamin A is important for healthy skin and hair, influencing hair growth and skin healing, but UV light reduces its levels.
research Cell and Tissue Damage After Skin Exposure to Ionizing Radiation: Short- and Long-Term Effects After Single and Fractional Doses
Ionizing radiation causes irreversible skin damage, with single doses leading to acute injury and hair graying, and fractional doses causing more severe long-term tissue damage.
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 Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Promotes Aging-Associated Hair Graying in Mice
A certain signaling pathway in mice, when increased, causes hair to gray by depleting the cells that give hair its color.
research Adam10 Haploinsufficiency Causes Freckle-Like Macules in Hairless Mice
A mutation in the Adam10 gene causes freckle-like spots on Hairless mice.
research Protective Effect of Superoxide Dismutase Against Hair Graying in a Mouse Model
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) can prevent hair graying in mice.
research Sox2 in the Dermal Papilla Regulates Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Sox2 controls hair color by affecting pigment production in hair follicles.

An 82-year-old man's white hair regained color after taking etretinate for psoriasis.
research Multiple Roles of Integrin-Linked Kinase in Epidermal Development, Maturation, and Pigmentation Revealed by Molecular Profiling
ILK is essential for skin development, pigmentation, and healing.
research Paracrine Secreted Frizzled-Related Protein 4 Inhibits Melanocyte Differentiation in Hair Follicle
A protein called sFRP4 from skin cells stops the development of pigment-producing cells in hair.
research Heterogeneity of Neural Crest-Derived Melanocytes
Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.
research What's New in the Treatment of Vitiligo
New treatments for vitiligo show promise but still face challenges, especially for hands and feet.
research Subclinical Speckled Perifollicular Melanosis of the Scalp
The scalp has a natural speckled pattern of increased pigment around hair follicles, possibly linked to local hormone production.
research Hair Matters in Melanoma Biology
The document concludes that the immune-inhibitory environment of the hair follicle may prevent melanoma development.
research How the Stress of Fight or Flight Turns Hair White
Stress turns hair white by depleting color-giving cells in hair follicles through a specific neurotransmitter related to the body's stress response.
research A Review of the Etiologies, Clinical Characteristics, and Treatment of Canities
Gray hair is caused by reduced melanin production or transfer issues, linked to aging and possibly health conditions, with treatments focusing on color camouflage.
research Preservation of Melanoblasts in White Hair Follicles of Segmental Vitiligo Lesions: A Preliminary Study
White hair follicles in vitiligo have fewer and less functional melanocytes.
research Site of Beige and Leaden Pigment Gene Expression Determined by Recombinant Embryonic Skin Grafts and Aggregation Mouse Chimaeras Employing Sash Homozygotes
Beige and leaden pigment genes act within melanocytes, affecting pigment patterns.
research Alopecia Areata: Hyperactivity of the Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenal Axis Is a Myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Spatiotemporal Labeling of Melanocytes in Mice
The research showed how melanocytes develop, move, and respond to UV light, and their stem cells' role in hair color and skin cancer risk.
research Dermal Papilla Regulation of Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Dermal papilla cells are key for hair growth and color, influencing hair type and size, and their interaction with stem cells could help treat hair loss and color disorders.
research Photobiomodulation for Skin Pigmentation Disorders: A Dual-Function Treatment
Light therapy is effective and safe for treating skin color disorders like vitiligo and dark spots.
research The Psychology of Gray Hair
Stress can cause hair to turn gray by depleting pigment-producing cells through the release of a stress hormone.
research Premature Greying of Hair (Premature Canities): A Concern for Parent and Child
Genetics, stress, and health issues can cause early hair greying, which affects self-esteem, and there's no cure, only hair dye.
research Culture of Amelanotic Melanocytes Derived from Human Fetal Hair Follicles
Melanocytes from human fetal hair follicles were successfully cultured, showing potential for hair disease research and clinical use.
research Disorders of Pigmentation in Infants and Children
Vitiligo causes white skin patches, often starts before age 20, and is linked to other health issues.
