Keratinocytes Control the Pheo/Eumelanin Ratio in Cultured Normal Human Melanocytes

23 Nov 2002

Abstract excerpt

The pheo/eumelanin ratio of cultured normal human melanocytes is distinct from the ratio observed for the same cells in vivo where they are in close contact with keratinocytes. To study the possible involvement of keratinocytes in the control of melanogenesis, we compared quantitatively and qualitatively the melanin production in melanocyte mono-cultures, in melanocyte-keratinocyte co-cultures and in pigmented...
