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

Aging changes hair stem cells and their environment, leading to gray hair and hair thinning, but understanding these changes could help develop treatments for hair regeneration.

The human scalp hair bulb contains different types of melanocytes with varying abilities to produce melanin.

Skin stem cells interacting with their environment is crucial for maintaining and regenerating skin and hair, and understanding this can help develop new treatments for skin and hair disorders.

Hair follicle stem cells could be used to treat the skin condition vitiligo.

Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.

Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.

The research found that a specific skin cell type not only triggers hair growth but also controls hair color, and that aging can lead to hair loss and color changes.

Surgical repigmentation can permanently restore color to white hair in vitiligo patients.

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

Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.

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

Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.

A mutation in the Adam10 gene causes freckle-like spots on Hairless mice.

A protein called sFRP4 from skin cells stops the development of pigment-producing cells in hair.

Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.

RT1640 treatment reverses gray hair and promotes hair growth in mice.

Segmental Vitiligo is a stable, early-onset form of vitiligo that responds well to early treatment and is ideal for repigmentation studies.

Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.

Hair ages and thins due to factors like inflammation and stress, and treatments like antioxidants and hormones might improve hair health.

The nucleus is key in controlling skin growth and repair by coordinating signals, gene regulators, and epigenetic changes.

Different types of stem cells with unique roles exist in blood, skin, and intestines, and this variety is important for tissue repair.

Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.

The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.

The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.

Gene network oscillations inside hair stem cells are key for hair growth regulation and could help treat hair loss.

Hair follicle stem cells are important for maintaining healthy skin and interact with many signals.

Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.

Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.

Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
