Hair greying in castrated mice

2022-09-27

Abstract excerpt

Depigmentation of hair shafts is a hallmark of human aging. However, it remains unclear how aging causes human hair to grey. Here, we found that a single session of hair plucking via waxing causes hair to grey in castrated mice. Moreover, this hair greying continued for several hair cycles. Given that androgen secretion decreases with age in both male and female humans, the present result suggests that this decrea...
