Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) is a highly polymorphic G protein-coupled receptor. Inheritance of various MC1R alleles has been associated with a red hair/fair skin phenotype, increased incidence of skin cancer and altered sensitivity to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether MC1R genotype influences erythemal sensitivity to psoralen-UVA photochemotherapy (PUVA) in patients...
