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 Topical RT1640 Treatment Effectively Reverses Gray Hair and Stem Cell Loss in a Mouse Model of Radiation-Induced Canities

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

Beige and leaden pigment genes act within melanocytes, affecting pigment patterns.
research Hair Graying Regulators Beyond Hair Follicle
Hair graying is influenced by factors like nerves, fat cells, and immune cells, not just hair follicles.
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 Stem Cells of the Hair Follicular Tissue: Application in Cell-Based Therapy for Vitiligo
Hair follicle stem cells could be used to treat the skin condition vitiligo.
research Dermal Papilla Regulation of Hair Growth and Pigmentation

research Apoptosis in Hair and Skin: A Review
The study concludes that regulating apoptosis could lead to new treatments for various skin and hair conditions.
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 Segmental Vitiligo: Characteristics, Treatment, and Prognosis
Segmental Vitiligo is a stable, early-onset form of vitiligo that responds well to early treatment and is ideal for repigmentation studies.
research Culture of Amelanotic Melanocytes Derived from Human Fetal Hair Follicles
