Spatial and Temporal Localization of the Melanocortin 1 Receptor and Its Ligand α–Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone during Cutaneous Wound Repair

12 Jan 2011

Abstract excerpt

Growing evidence indicates that the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) and its ligand α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) have other functions in the skin in addition to pigment production. Activation of the MC1R/α-MSH signaling pathway has been implicated in the regulation of both inflammation and extracellular matrix homeostasis. However, little is known about the role of MC1R/α-MSH signaling in the regulation...
