Presence of immunoreactive β‐endorphin in human skin

1 Oct 2001

Abstract excerpt

The production and its induction by ultraviolet radiation (UVR) of proopiomelanocortin (POMC)-derived peptides by keratinocytes has been reported, albeit not consistently. Recently we demonstrated that only under specific culturing conditions human keratinocytes are capable of producing a beta-endorphin (betaE)-like peptide with the characteristics of beta-lipotropin (betaLPH). Here the presence and UV-induction...
