Hair aging is caused by stress, hormones, inflammation, and DNA damage affecting hair growth and color.

Melasma's causes include genetics, sun exposure, hormones, and oxidative stress, and understanding these can help create better treatments.

SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.

Hair color is determined by different melanins and changes with age.

Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.

The vitamin D receptor is crucial for bone health and affects various body systems, with mutations potentially leading to disease.

Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.

Lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia are likely the same disease with different clinical appearances.

Accurate diagnosis of cicatricial alopecias requires thorough scalp examination and multiple biopsy techniques.

Human skin and hair color variation is mainly due to melanin produced by a few genes, with melanin protecting against sun damage.

Melasma is now considered a skin aging disorder caused by sun exposure in people with a genetic tendency, which impacts treatment and prevention approaches.

High mTORC1 activity slows hair growth and causes it to lose color.

Dermal factors are crucial in regulating melanin production in skin.

The conclusion is that skin and hair patterns are formed by a mix of cell activities, molecular signals, and environmental factors.

HIV can cause various nail and hair disorders, important for early diagnosis and treatment.

Dental pulp stem cells might not reliably become neurons.

Hormone imbalances can cause skin diseases, and understanding these links is important for diagnosis and treatment.

Rice bran extract and low-frequency electromagnetic fields together may help treat vitiligo and white hair.

The document emphasizes the need for primary care providers to understand and care for African American children's hair and skin to boost their self-esteem.

Tip cryotherapy effectively treats idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis with minimal side effects.
