The cell biology of human hair follicle pigmentation

10 Nov 2010

Abstract excerpt

Although we have made significant progress in understanding the regulation of the UVR-exposed epidermal-melanin unit, we know relatively little about how human hair follicle pigmentation is regulated. Progress has been hampered by gaps in our knowledge of the hair growth cycle's controls, to which hair pigmentation appears tightly coupled. However, pigment cell researchers may have overly focused on the...
