Notch/RBP-J signaling is crucial for proper placement and timing of melanocyte development in hair follicles.
research Expression Patterns of MITF During Human Cutaneous Embryogenesis: Evidence for Bulge Epithelial Expression and Persistence of Dermal Melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research Three Streams for the Mechanism of Hair Graying
Hair graying may be caused by stem cell depletion from stress or melanocyte damage.
research A Rare Repigmentation Pattern in a Vitiligo Patient: A Clue to an Epidermal Stem-Cell Reservoir of Melanocytes?
Repigmentation in vitiligo may come from melanocyte stem cells in the skin.

research The Early Repigmentation Pattern of Vitiligo Is Related to the Source of Melanocytes and the Choice of Therapy: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Repigmentation patterns in vitiligo depend on melanocyte source, lesion status, and therapy choice.
research Hair Cycle and Hair Pigmentation: Dynamic Interactions and Changes Associated with Aging
As people age, their hair follicles produce less pigment, leading to gray and white hair, due to factors like reduced enzyme activity and damage to melanocyte DNA.
research Long-Term Follow-Up of Leucoderma Patients Treated with Transplants of Autologous Cultured Melanocytes, Ultrathin Epidermal Sheets, and Basal Cell Layer Suspension
Transplantation is effective for stable leucoderma but not for progressive, widespread vitiligo vulgaris.
