research Stress-Sensing in the Human Greying Hair Follicle: Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) Depletion in Hair Bulb Melanocytes in Canities-Prone Scalp
Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.
research 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid Promoted Hair Pigmentation Through β-Catenin and Its Target Genes
A substance called TCQA could potentially darken hair by activating certain genes and increasing melanin.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research Regulatory Mutations in TBX3 Disrupt Asymmetric Hair Pigmentation That Underlies Dun Camouflage Color in Horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research Understanding Melanocyte Stem Cells for Disease Modeling and Regenerative Medicine Applications
Melanocyte stem cells are crucial for skin pigmentation and have potential in disease modeling and regenerative medicine.
research Update on Melasma—Part I: Pathogenesis
Melasma's causes include genetics, sun exposure, hormones, and oxidative stress, and understanding these can help create better treatments.
research The Formulation and In-Vitro Evaluation of WS Biotin, a Novel Encapsulated Form of D-Biotin with Improved Water Solubility for Hair and Skin Treatment Applications
WS Biotin, a new form of D-Biotin, improves water solubility and shows potential for hair and skin care without being toxic at low levels.
research Resequencing Analyses Revealed Genetic Diversity and Selection Signatures During Rabbit Breeding and Improvement
