research MTORC1 Activity Negatively Regulates Human Hair Follicle Growth and Pigmentation
High mTORC1 activity slows hair growth and causes it to lose color.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth
Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Growth Hormone and the Human Hair Follicle
Growth hormone levels affect hair growth and loss, with too much causing excess hair and too little leading to hair loss.
research Nutrient and Stress Sensing as Novel Physiological Regulator of Human Hair Pigmentation and Greying: Role of mTORC1 Activity
Blocking mTORC1 activity could increase hair pigmentation and potentially reverse greying.
research Neuroendocrinology of the Hair Follicle: Principles and Clinical Perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Hair Melanocytes as Neuro-Endocrine Sensors—Pigments for Our Imagination
Hair melanocytes help the skin respond to stress and regulate hair pigmentation.
research Revisiting the Role of Melatonin in Human Melanocyte Physiology: A Skin Context Perspective
Melatonin affects skin and hair color and protects skin cells, with potential benefits for hair growth and skin health.
research Hyperadrenocorticism in Ferrets
Hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets is linked to neutering and indoor housing, and is best treated with surgery and a deslorelin implant.
research Critical Role of ATP-P2X7 Axis in UV-Induced Melanogenesis
ATP increases melanin production in skin after UV exposure, with the P2X7 receptor being crucial for this process.
research Dermal Papilla Regulation of Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Dermal papilla cells are key for hair growth and color, influencing hair type and size, and their interaction with stem cells could help treat hair loss and color disorders.
research The Potential Impact of Melanosomal pH and Metabolism on Melanoma
Melanin may help melanoma cells grow by aiding their metabolism.
research Role of Dermal Factors Involved in Regulating the Melanin and Melanogenesis of Mammalian Melanocytes in Normal and Abnormal Skin
Dermal factors are crucial in regulating melanin production in skin.
research Vitiligo - Part 2 - Classification, Histopathology and Treatment
New vitiligo treatments focus on controlling immune damage and restoring skin color.
research Sex Differences in Opioid-Mediated Effects: Role of Androgens
Men and women react differently to opioids, with hormones potentially influencing these differences.
research Endocrine Systems of the Skin: A 2019 Review
The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.
research Stress-Related Skin Disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research Efficacy of an Agonist of α-MSH, the Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-20, in Hair Pigmentation
Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 may help reduce hair greying and increase melanin production.
research Clinical and Histopathologic Features of Hair Loss in Patients with HIV-1 Infection
People with late-stage HIV-1 often experience a specific type of hair loss linked to multiple factors, including nutritional issues and immune responses.
research An Exclusive Review of Melatonin Effects on Mammalian Melanocytes and Melanoma
Melatonin may inhibit melanoma growth and has potential as a cancer therapy aid, but its effects on human skin pigmentation need more research.
research Australasian Society for Dermatology Research Meeting, May 2006
The meeting highlighted the genetic basis of female pattern hair loss and various skin health insights.
research Molecular Regulation of Melanocyte Senescence
The article concludes that while we understand a lot about how melanocytes age and how this can prevent cancer, there are still unanswered questions about certain pathways and genes involved.
research Cutaneous Metabolism of Vitamin B-6
An enzyme other than TNAP might be responsible for vitamin B-6 metabolism in the skin.
research Hair Pigmentation: A Research Update
Hair color is determined by different melanins and changes with age.
research Alopecia Areata: A Tissue-Specific Autoimmune Disease of the Hair Follicle
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss due to the immune system attacking hair follicles, often influenced by genetics and stress.
research Protoporphyrin IX: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Protoporphyrin IX is useful in cancer treatment but can cause health problems if not properly regulated.
research Melatonin and the Hair Follicle
Melatonin helps regulate hair growth and protects the hair follicle from stress.
research Ultraviolet Radiation in Wound Care: Sterilization and Stimulation
UV radiation can help sterilize wounds and promote healing but requires careful use to avoid damaging cells.
research Biology of Melanocytes in Mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
