α-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone Modulates Nitric Oxide Production in Melanocytes1 [PDF]
, 2000 We have previously observed that melanocytes produce nitric oxide in response to ultraviolet radiation and lipopolysaccharide and in this study have examined how these responses are affected by α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. Nitric oxide production by

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.
