Life has hair is no longer a dream

Life keep hair is Oriental dream. Recently, L'Oreal Research Institute has found the secret of the hair: a tyrosinase protein 2 (TRP2) of the genetic code in holds hair black and white. If you can find the control the genetic code, life Jet-Black beautiful hair is no longer a dream.

Experts pointed out that for a long time, people know that hair turns white is the result of the lack of melanin, the cause may be due to genetic, it may also be due to the metabolism of pigment in the hair of natural aging, no new melanin. However, skin and hair, the same color by melanosomes decided, why the melanin in the skin will not be lost?

Expert in the study of skin and hair melanin cells found in the melanocytes in the deep, specialized and pigmented cells of tyrosinase, tyrosinase protein 1 (TRP1) and tyrosinase protein 2 (TRP2) these three enzymes common role, Brown melanin and really two pigment melanin. And password in the hair follicle TRP2 genes selectively expressed as hidden. Experimental results show that the synthesis of human body TRP2 Palm, melanin is indispensable, the disappearing of melanocytes, and does not contain TRP2 of melanocytes.

Researchers believe that the decision of the black and white hair, TRP2 genetic code may play a crucial role. From this standpoint, the skin melanocytes in the nature of this protein, relations with the survival of these cells. If you can find the control method of password TRP2 gene, life Jet-Black beautiful hair is no longer a dream.
