Expression patterns of MITF during human cutaneous embryogenesis: evidence for bulge epithelial expression and persistence of dermal melanoblasts

29 Feb 2008

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: The mechanisms whereby melanocytes populate the epidermis and developing hair follicles during embryogenesis are incompletely understood. Recent evidence implicates an intermediate mesenchymal stage in this evolutionary process in which HMB-45-positive melanocyte precursors ('melanoblasts') exist both in intradermal as well as intraepithelial and intrafollicular compartments. The melanocyte master...
