DOI: 10.1016/j.ydbio.2018.03.022
Abstract: Melanocytes derive from neural crest cells, which are a highly migratory population of cells that play an important role in pigmentation of the skin and epidermal appendages. In most vertebrates, melanocyte precursor cells migrate solely… read more here.

DOI: 10.1158/1538-7445.am2023-3755
Abstract: It is estimated that more than 90% of the human genome is transcribed into non-coding RNAs (ncRNA). It has been demonstrated that ncRNAs have an important role in biological processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1534/genetics.119.302416
Abstract: In larval zebrafish, melanocyte stem cells (MSCs) are quiescent, but can be recruited to regenerate the larval pigment pattern following melanocyte ablation. Through pharmacological experiments, we found that inhibition of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-A receptor function,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1176781
Abstract: Vitiligo is a common acquired pigmentary disorder that presents as progressive loss of melanocytes from the skin. Epidermal melanocytes and keratinocytes are in close proximity to each other, forming a functional and structural unit where… read more here.

DOI: 10.4103/ijdvl.ijdvl_106_17
Abstract: Background: Vitiligo is a disorder caused by the loss of the melanocyte activity on melanin pigment generation. Studies show that oxidative-stress induced apoptosis in melanocytes is closely related to the pathogenesis of vitiligo. Glutamine is… read more here.
