Skin-Aging Pigmentation: Who Is the Real Enemy?
Skin aging is induced and sustained by chronological aging and photoaging. Aging skin pigmentation such as mottled pigmentation (senile lentigo) and melasma are typical signs of photoaging. The skin, like other human organs, undergoes cellular senescence,

The effect of constitutive pigmentation on the measured emissivity of human skin.
BackgroundThe measurement of body temperature has become commonplace in the current COVID-19 pandemic. Body temperature can be measured using thermal infrared imaging, a safe, non-contact method that relies on the emissivity of the skin being known to ...

Key regulatory role of dermal fibroblasts in pigmentation as demonstrated using a reconstructed skin model: impact of photo-aging. [PDF]
To study cutaneous pigmentation in a physiological context, we have previously developed a functional pigmented reconstructed skin model composed of a melanocyte-containing epidermis grown on a dermal equivalent comprising living fibroblasts. The present

By protecting against cutaneous inflammation, epidermal pigmentation provided an additional advantage for ancestral humans. [PDF]
Pigmentation evolved in ancestral humans to protect against toxic, ultraviolet B irradiation, but the question remains: "what is being protected?" Because humans with dark pigmentation display a suite of superior epidermal functions in comparison with ...

Clofazimine-induced skin pigmentation. [PDF]
A 54-year-old male presented to the outpatient department with complaints of black discoloration of skin and nails for the past 1 month. The patient gave a history of multi-drug resistant sputum positive tuberculosis for which he is on antitubercular drugs (Isoniazid, Ethambutol, Pyrazinamide, Clofazimine, Bedaquiline, Levofloxacin, and Ethionamide ...

Genome-wide association studies of quantitatively measured skin, hair, and eye pigmentation in four European populations. [PDF]
Pigmentation of the skin, hair, and eyes varies both within and between human populations. Identifying the genes and alleles underlying this variation has been the goal of many candidate gene and several genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

Spontaneous melanotic lesions in axillary seabream, Pagellus acarne (Risso) [PDF]
In this paper, we describe spontaneous melanotic lesions in the skin of axillary seabream, Pagellus acarne (Risso) from a defined area of the Portuguese Coast, located in Cabo da Roca and Foz do Arelho.
