research Casein Kinase 1 Inhibition in Keratinocytes Enhances the Migration of Melanocyte Precursors in the Hair Follicle via KitL/c-Kit Signaling Pathway
Blocking casein kinase 1 in skin cells can help melanocyte precursors move better, potentially helping with conditions like vitiligo or gray hair.
research Molecular Heterogeneity of Quiescent Melanocyte Stem Cells Revealed by Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing
Different types of resting melanocyte stem cells have unique characteristics and vary in their potential to become other cells.
research Tribuloside Acts on the PDE/cAMP/PKA Pathway to Enhance Melanogenesis, Melanocyte Dendricity and Melanosome Transport
Tribuloside can increase skin pigmentation by enhancing melanin production and distribution.
research Beyond the Epidermal-Melanin-Unit: The Human Scalp Anagen Hair Bulb Is Home to Multiple Melanocyte Subpopulations of Variable Melanogenic Capacity
The human scalp has different types of pigment cells in hair follicles with varying abilities to produce pigment.
research Melanocyte Cell States Defined and Visualized in Developing Mouse Skin
Researchers found three types of melanocytes in developing mouse skin, each with different genes and locations.
research Hyperactivation of Sympathetic Nerves Drives Depletion of Melanocyte Stem Cells
Stress causes hair graying by overactivating nerves that deplete color-giving stem cells.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells Maintain the Differentiation Refractory Niche for Co-Occupant Melanocyte Stem Cells by Regulating Retinoid Metabolic Process
Hair follicle stem cells prevent melanocyte stem cells from differentiating by controlling retinoic acid levels.
research Complications and Limitations of Melanocyte Transplantation
Melanocyte transplantation can safely restore skin color, especially in stable vitiligo, but must be chosen carefully based on the disease phase.
research Changes in Different Melanocyte Populations During Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)
Different melanocyte types in hair follicles either survive or die during the catagen phase.
research Improved Cutaneous Wound Healing After Intraperitoneal Injection of Alpha-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone
Injecting alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone in mice improved skin healing and reduced scarring.
research Assessing Auditory and Cochlear Function in Alopecia Areata Patients: Exploring the Link to Cochlear Melanocyte Damage
Alopecia areata may be linked to hearing problems, so patients should monitor their hearing.
research Melanoblasts' Proper Location and Timed Differentiation Depend on Notch/RBP-J Signaling in Postnatal Hair Follicles
Notch/RBP-J signaling is crucial for proper placement and timing of melanocyte development in hair follicles.
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 Histopathologic Findings of Cutaneous Hyperpigmentation in Addison's Disease and Immunostain of the Melanocytic Population
The study found increased skin pigmentation and variable melanocyte density in a patient with Addison's disease.
research Future Directions in the Treatment of Vitiligo
New treatments for vitiligo may focus on protecting melanocyte stem cells from stress and targeting specific pathways involved in the condition.
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
