Absence of TRP‐2 in Melanogenic Melanocytes of Human Hair
6 Sept 2004
Abstract excerpt
Skin and hair colour mostly depend on the activity of melanogenic melanocytes. Numerous proteins involved in melanocyte function have been identified including pMel-17, Mitf-M, Sox10, tyrosinase, tyrosinase related proteins-1 (TRP-1) and -2 (TRP-2). In the hair, melanogenic activity occurs only during the anagen phase of the hair cycle. In order to evaluate the implications of some known melanogenic proteins in...
