Mitochondrial deoxyguanosine kinase depletion induced ROS causes melanocyte stem cell exhaustion and hair greying
16 Jun 2025
Abstract excerpt
Hair pigmentation is regulated by melanocyte stem cells (MeSCs) within the hair follicle. Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with hair depigmentation, primarily due to defects in melanogenesis. However, the mechanisms by which mitochondria support MeSCs during hair pigmentation remain obscure. In this study, we investigated the role of mitochondrial deoxyguanosine kinase (DGUOK), which provides guanosine and...
