Summary
The paper discusses the environmental regulation of skin pigmentation and hair regeneration, focusing on the role of hair follicle stem cells and melanocyte stem cells, and how their activation or quiescence is influenced by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors.
Categories
Skin Health: The paper discusses the role of hair follicle stem cells and melanocyte stem cells in skin pigmentation and hair regeneration, and how disorders of these cells can result in skin diseases such as hair loss, canities, vitiligo, and even melanoma.
Aging: The paper discusses how the aging process affects hair follicle stem cells and melanocyte stem cells, leading to hair loss and hair graying.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses how external light stimulation can influence the activation of hair follicle stem cells and hair regeneration.
Well-being: The paper discusses how disorders of hair follicle stem cells or melanocyte stem cells can compromise senses of well-being and pose psychosocial distress to the affected individuals.
