30 / 480 resultsresearch The Distribution of Melanocytes and the Degradation of Melanosomes in Fetal Hair Follicles
Fetal hair follicles have melanocytes with melanosomes at different stages, which are broken down into pigment particles in keratinocytes.
research Dynein Is Involved in the Movement, Distribution, Acidity, and Transfer of Melanosomes
Dynlt3 is important for melanosome transport and skin coloration.
research Observation of Cultured Amelanotic Melanocytes from Hair Follicles by Atomic Force Microscopy
Amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles are immature and likely don't transfer melanosomes to keratinocytes.
research Melanocytes: The New Black
Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.
research Epidermal Pigmentation in the Human Lineage as an Adaptation to Ultraviolet Radiation
Forensic DNA Phenotyping can help predict physical traits from crime scene DNA to identify suspects.
research Asian Hair: A Review of Structures, Properties, and Distinctive Disorders
Asian hair is generally straight and thick, with unique disorders and properties, and more research is needed to understand it fully.
research Variation in Human Hair Ultrastructure Among Three Biogeographic Populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research Human Pollution Exposure Correlates With Accelerated Ultrastructural Degradation of Hair Fibers
Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.
research Multifunctional Merkel Cells: Their Roles in Electromagnetic Reception, Fingerprint Formation, Reiki, Epigenetic Inheritance, and Hair Form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Human Skin Color: Origin, Variation, and Significance
Human skin and hair color variation is mainly due to melanin produced by a few genes, with melanin protecting against sun damage.
research Hair Pigmentation: A Research Update
Hair color is determined by different melanins and changes with age.
research HGF/SF Increases Number of Skin Melanocytes but Does Not Alter Quality or Quantity of Follicular Melanogenesis
HGF/SF increases skin melanocytes but doesn't change melanin type or amount.
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 Heterogeneity of Neural Crest-Derived Melanocytes
Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.
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 Impact of Constant Light Exposure During Pregnancy on Skin of Neonatal New Zealand Rabbits: Structural and Ultrastructural Study
Constant light exposure during pregnancy changes newborn rabbits' skin, affecting hair follicles, skin thickness, and pigment cells.
research The Hair Pigmentation Unit And Hair Graying
Hair color is due to active pigment cells in hair during growth.
research Morphologic Comparison of Cultured Human Epidermis Melanocytes, Amelanotic Melanocytes from Hair Follicles, and Mouse Melanoma Cells Observed by Atomic Force Microscope
Melanin granules can be expelled by exocytosis.
research Skin Problems in Black Patients
Black patients have unique skin conditions that require specific knowledge for proper treatment.
research Repigmentation in Skin of Color After Phenol-Croton Oil Chemical Peel
Skin of color can spontaneously repigment after a phenol-croton oil chemical peel.
research Inhibition of Rab27a and Rab27b Has Opposite Effects on the Regulation of Hair Cycle and Hair Growth
Blocking Rab27a slows hair growth, while blocking Rab27b encourages it.
research Hair Greying and Its Palliative Management
Hair greying is seen as a sign of aging; temporary fixes like hair dye are used, but a balanced diet and hair care can help manage it.
research Quantification of Normal Human Hair Pigmentation by Electron Microscopy
Daily hair care may cause holes in hair fibers.
