| 1 | OBJECTIVE: This study aims to elucidate the role of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) in the hyperpigmentation process of skin autografts by analysing the expression of alpha-MSH and the amount of melanin in human autografted skin and normal skin. | Melanins | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | OBJECTIVE: This study aims to elucidate the role of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) in the hyperpigmentation process of skin autografts by analysing the expression of alpha-MSH and the amount of melanin in human autografted skin and normal skin. | Melanins | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | The expression of alpha-MSH correlated well with the amount of melanin in skin autograft epidermis. | Melanins | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
| 4 | CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that the function of melanogenesis, transfer of melanin in melanocytes, was dramatically enhanced in skin autografts by alpha-MSH. | Melanins | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
