Hair follicle stem cells prevent melanocyte stem cells from differentiating by controlling retinoic acid levels.

Melanocyte transplantation can safely restore skin color, especially in stable vitiligo, but must be chosen carefully based on the disease phase.

Hair graying is caused by the loss of pigment cells due to poor maintenance of stem cells in the hair follicle.

Different melanocyte types in hair follicles either survive or die during the catagen phase.

Injecting alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone in mice improved skin healing and reduced scarring.

Alopecia areata may be linked to hearing problems, so patients should monitor their hearing.

A specific group of early-stage melanocytes is reduced in vitiligo-affected skin, which may explain treatment resistance.

Notch/RBP-J signaling is crucial for proper placement and timing of melanocyte development in hair follicles.

Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.

Hair graying may be caused by stem cell depletion from stress or melanocyte damage.

Repigmentation in vitiligo may come from melanocyte stem cells in the skin.

The study found increased skin pigmentation and variable melanocyte density in a patient with Addison's disease.

Repigmentation patterns in vitiligo depend on melanocyte source, lesion status, and therapy choice.

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.

Transplantation is effective for stable leucoderma but not for progressive, widespread vitiligo vulgaris.

Stem cells in the hair follicle are regulated by their surrounding environment, which is important for hair growth.

Hair follicle melanocytes die during hair regression.

We need more research on human hair follicle pigmentation, not just mouse models.

Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.

Human hair follicle stem cells can be isolated using specific markers for potential therapeutic use.

New vitiligo treatments focus on controlling immune damage and restoring skin color.

Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.

Vitiligo causes white skin patches and is linked to autoimmune issues.

Surgical methods like suction blister grafting and split-thickness skin grafting are highly successful for vitiligo repigmentation, but choosing the right patients is crucial for success.

Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.

Premature graying of hair may suggest health issues and currently lacks effective treatments.

Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.

The review suggests that there are various treatments to help restore skin color after severe burns.

Stem cells can help other stem cells by producing supportive factors.

Melanocytes appear in fetal skin early, but their development details are still unclear.
