This study found that Wnt10b promotes melanocyte maturation and pigmentation in the hair bulbs of mice by activating canonical Wnt signaling.

This study found that melanocyte progenitor cells are present in human subcutaneous adipose tissue and may differentiate into mature melanocytes, suggesting potential applications in treating skin diseases and rejuvenation.

This study reports that PDRN, commonly used for wound healing, may also have anti-melanogenesis and potential skin whitening effects in both experimental models and clinical settings.

This study suggests that 3,4,5-tri-O-caffeoylquinic acid activates β-catenin to enhance pigmentation in mouse hair follicles, human melanocytes, and melanoma cells during the hair cycle's growth phase.

This review discusses the potential use of platelet-rich plasma for treating melasma, suggesting its effectiveness but noting the need for more extensive studies to confirm these findings.

This study observed that the topical skin-whitening agent rhododendrol induced skin depigmentation in approximately 16,000 consumers, linked to melanocyte cytotoxicity and immune reactions.

In this study, Epimedii Folium extract was found to enhance melanin production and promote pigmentation through mechanisms involving the MAPK/ERK1/2 pathway in both in vitro and in vivo models.

This paper provides a comprehensive review of melanocytes' roles in skin biology, focusing on their pigmentation and immune functions, and suggests potential research opportunities for preventing and treating skin disorders.

This study identified a small population of PAX3+/CD34+ cells in human foreskin tissue that may serve as transition cells between melanocyte stem cells and hair follicle stem cells, characterized by specific marker expressions.

This research describes methods to activate melanocyte stem cells during hair follicle regeneration and to isolate melanocytes from neonatal mouse skin, with the aim of studying melanogenesis for potential clinical applications.

In this study, PP-PTKL exhibited antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and pro-melanogenic effects in laboratory settings, suggesting its potential role in preventing or treating hair greying. Further animal and human studies are needed to verify these findings.

In this laboratory study, α-mangostin was found to significantly reduce melanin content and downregulate pigmentation-related genes in cultured skin and B16F10 cells, suggesting potential application as a natural whitening agent in sunscreen development.

This study found that non-vitiliginous melanocyte stem cells from vitiligo patients were unaffected by the disease and could effectively differentiate into melanin-producing melanocytes, suggesting their potential for use in cellular therapy for vitiligo repigmentation.

The study suggests that variability in platelet-derived growth factors in PRP is influenced by both patient-to-patient differences and the devices used for PRP preparation, contributing to inconsistent clinical outcomes in hair loss treatments.

Skin-derived stem cells could help treat skin aging and pigmentation issues.

This study identified a novel CDH3 mutation associated with sparse hair and pigmentary macular changes in two siblings with hypotrichosis but no visual symptoms.

This study observed that CDH3-related congenital hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy presents with childhood-onset progressive chorioretinal atrophy and universally thin and sparse scalp hair.

This case report identifies a novel CDH3 gene mutation associated with hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy in a 13-year-old Turkish girl, highlighting implications for future genetic analysis and counseling.

This report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, indicating a new genetic variant associated with the disorder.

This study found that CK15 is an unreliable marker for assessing bulge zone integrity in cicatricial alopecia follicles due to its altered expression in diseased conditions.

This review discusses the roles of Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis and related processes but reports no new experimental results, highlighting areas for future research.

This study examined a 7-year-old girl with trichomegaly of the eyelashes, showing no significant underlying or observable cause, suggesting a spontaneous occurrence.

This article discusses the clinical presentation, histopathologic findings, and pathogenesis hypotheses of vitiligo without reporting new clinical results.

This study identified Lgr5 and Lgr6 as receptors expressed by small populations of stem cells in various adult organs, with Lgr5+ve cells forming long-lived organoids in certain mouse models.

This review discusses the significant role of Wnt signaling in skin development, homeostasis, and disease, highlighting recent advances in understanding its diverse functions, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that Wnt signaling in the hair follicle is crucial for coordinating the behavior of epithelial and melanocyte stem cells, which drives hair regeneration and melanocyte differentiation in mice.

This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.

This review discusses the role of epidermal and other adult stem cells in skin repair, focusing on their potential therapeutic applications for non-healing wounds and other skin disorders, but reports no new research results.

In this study, researchers identified 18 genetic associations with scalp and facial hair traits in Latin Americans, including novel loci for hair greying and balding, with implications for understanding hair evolution.
