DOI: 10.3390/ijms20153739
Abstract: In a previous study, we showed that the size of melanosomes isolated from Japanese female hairs enlarges with age, and this affects the hair color. In this study, we analyzed the age-dependent changes in hair… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232214459
Abstract: In a previous study, we observed that the hair color of Japanese females darkens with age and that the causes of this are the increase in melanosome size, the amount of melanin, and the mol%… read more here.
