Research Abstract |
To clarify the role of PTEN in melanocyte stem cell maintainance in hair graying, we studied PTEN role in bcl-2 null, or mitf mutant mice, which are known as hair graying model mice. We generated PTEN and bcl-2, or PTEN and mitf double mutant mice, and now studying their hair color change in natural aging.
