DOI: 10.1111/exd.14740
Abstract: It remains unclear how the multifunctional indoleamine neurohormone, melatonin, alters melanin production and melanocytes within intact human epidermis under physiologically relevant conditions. In the current pilot study, we aimed to clarify this in long‐term organ‐cultured,… read more here.
