Modulating skin colour: role of the thioredoxin and glutathione systems in regulating melanogenesis
Different skin colour among individuals is determined by the varying amount and types of melanin pigment. Melanin is produced in melanocytes, a type of dendritic cell located in the basal layer of the epidermis, through the process of melanogenesis ...

Paracrine regulation of melanogenesis [PDF]
Melanocytes are generally characterized by the basic ability of melanin synthesis and transfer to adjacent keratinocytes. This constitutes an individual skin phenotype and provides epidermal protection from various stimuli, such as ultraviolet irradiation, through a complex process called melanogenesis, which can be regulated by autocrine or paracrine ...

Using Melanogenesis to Study Antioxidants [PDF]
Building upon our research on the non-enzymatic synthesis of melanins, we explored the possibility that the reactions involved in the synthesis of melanins could serve as the basis for the study of and search for compounds with anti-oxidant properties ...

Effect of Phlorotannins Isolated From on Melanogenesis in Mouse B16 Melanoma Cells
Phlorotannins isolated from brown algae, such as Eisena bicyclis , have positive physiological effects, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and anti-Alzheimer’s disease.

Fluoroquinolones cause phototoxic reactions, manifested as different types of skin lesions, including hyperpigmentation. The disturbances of melanogenesis indicate that fluoroquinolones may affect cellular processes in melanocytes.

Perspective approaches on melanogenesis inhibition
Melanogenesis is a melanin-forming process responsible for protecting the skin against ultraviolet radiation damage. An excess production of melanin, however, may result in hyperpigmentation (darkening of the skin) to adverse dermatological effects ...

Melanogenesis Using Tyrosinate (Not Tyrosinase) [PDF]
We present our initial observations regarding the effect of the presence of L-tyrosinate (= L-tyrosine disodium salt) on the auto- or Fe2+/H2O2-mediated oxidation of various catecholic substances into melanin-like pigments.

Melanogenesis and the Targeted Therapy of Melanoma
Pigment production is a unique character of melanocytes. Numerous factors are linked with melanin production, including genetics, ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and inflammation.

Src inhibition induces melanogenesis in human G361 cells [PDF]
The Src kinase family (SKF) includes non‑receptor tyrosine kinases that interact with many cellular cytosolic, nuclear and membrane proteins, and is involved in the progression of cellular transformation and oncogenic activity.
