In vitro quantification of pigment production and transfer in 2D co-cultures and 3D skin organotypic
STAR Protocols, 2023 Summary: Here, we present a protocol to set up and study 2D keratinocyte-melanocyte co-cultures and 3D full-thickness human skin equivalents. We describe steps for culturing of keratinocyte and melanocyte lines and the establishment of both 2D and 3D co ...
