Role of UV in Cutaneous Melanoma<sup>†</sup>

31 Jan 2008

Abstract excerpt

Malignant melanoma arises from epidermal melanocytes, the cells responsible for the production of the skin pigment melanin. The photoprotective role of melanin, which is transferred to neighboring keratinocytes, in UV-induced skin carcinogenesis, specifically in nonmelanoma skin cancers, has been well documented. Although melanocyte-resident melanin is expected to offer similar protection to melanocytes from...
