The Influence of MC1R Variants on Facial Aging Rate [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings, 2015 Aging of the skin is influenced both by intrinsic factors, such as chronological age, and by extrinsic or environmental factors, such as chronic ultraviolet exposure and smoking. Skin photoaging is defined as premature aging of the skin due to chronic sun exposure. Variation in human skin and hair color is due to differences in the absolute amounts and

Selection on the Major Color Gene Melanocortin-1-Receptor Shaped the Evolution of the Melanocortin System Genes. [PDF]
, 2017 Modular genetic systems and networks have complex evolutionary histories shaped by selection acting on single genes as well as on their integrated function within the network. However, uncovering molecular coevolution requires the detection of coevolving

Analysi of MC1R polymorphism in Sardo-Modicana cattle
, 2009 Coat colour has been a topic of interest for both breeders and geneticists. Currently most cattle breeds are identified by their coat colour. In mammals, red/yellow and black/brown colours are determined by the distribution of two pigments: pheomelanin and eumelanin.
