Melanin Pigmentation in Mammalian Skin

Description

This cluster of papers explores the genetics, regulation, and adaptive significance of melanin pigmentation in mammalian skin, including its role in UV damage protection, hormonal regulation, and conditions such as vitiligo. It covers a wide range of topics from the molecular mechanisms of melanogenesis to the evolutionary and adaptive aspects of skin coloration.
