Haplotype‐Based Analysis of OCA2 Variants in Oculocutaneous Albinism

open access: yesPigment Cell &Melanoma Research, Volume 39, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study defines multi‐allele haplotypes, comprised of rare disease variants combined with common eQTL, sQTL and GWAS variants, for oculocutaneous albinism type 2 (OCA2). These haplotypes have implications for variant pathogenicity assessments and phenotypic variability.

Juvenile pheomelanin-based plumage coloration has evolved more frequently in carnivorous species

open access: yes, 2020
Distinctive pheomelanin-based plumage coloration in juvenile birds has been proposed as a signal of immaturity to avoid aggression by older conspecifics, but recent findings suggest a detoxifying strategy. Pheomelanin synthesis implies the consumption of

The fundamental building blocks of red human hair pheomelanin are isoquinoline-containing dimers

open access: yes, 2012
A TPCA-based, three-marker analysis has been used to demonstrate that the dimeric benzothiazolylthiazinoisoquinoline units recently identified in natural and synthetic pheomelanins are dominant structural building blocks of red human hair pheomelanin.

DEPIGMENTING AGENT MELANOTOKSIK PADA PENGOBATAN MELASMA

open access: yesMedical and Health Science Journal, 2018
: Human skin color is determined by melanin pigment,either eumelanin or feomelanin. Melanogenesis is a melanin synthesized process that is initiated with tirosin oxidation to DOPAquinone by tirosinase, and then auto-oxidation to DOPA and DOPAchrome ...

Pheomelanin in the skin of Hymenochirus boettgeri (Amphibia: Anura: Pipidae)

open access: yesExperimental Dermatology, 2012
AbstractPheomelanin is supposed to be the first type of melanin found in vertebrates, in contrast to the main type – eumelanin. Our study aimed at detecting pheomelanin in the skin of Hymenochirus boettgerii. We employed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), supplemented with standard histology ...

Females mate with males with diminished pheomelanin-based coloration in the Eurasian nuthatch Sitta europaea

open access: yes, 2018
Sexual selection can drive the evolution of phenotypic traits because of female preferences for exaggerated trait expression in males. Sexual selection can also lead to the evolutionary loss of traits, a process to which female preferences for diminished

Genetic favouring of pheomelanin-based pigmentation limits physiological benefits of coloniality in lesser kestrels Falco naumanni

open access: yes, 2020
Pheomelanin contributes to the pigmentation phenotype of animals by producing orange and light brown colours in the integument. However, pheomelanin synthesis in melanocytes requires consumption of glutathione (GSH), the most important intracellular ...

In vivo coherent Raman imaging of the melanomagenesis-associated pigment pheomelanin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Melanoma is the most deadly form of skin cancer with a yearly global incidence over 232,000 patients. Individuals with fair skin and red hair exhibit the highest risk for developing melanoma, with evidence suggesting the red/blond pigment known as ...
