Abstract excerpt

The effect of melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) on the differentiation of mammalian melanocytes has been widely studied since the early 1950s. There have been many reports about the stimulatory effect of MSH on melanin production and specifically on the activity of tyrosinase, the critical enzyme in the melanogenic pathway. However, few and variable results have been obtained concerning the effect of this...
