Some physiological genetic aspects of mammalian melanogenesis.
During the past several years we have been studying a number of melanogenic attributes using the skins of house mice afflicted by various types of genetic damage (Foster, 1956, 1959; Foster and Thomson, 1958). Our most recent study (Foster and Thomson, 1961, and unpublished data) involves a closer scrutiny of the effects of allelic interactions at a specific locus, b (brown). Briefly, by means ...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity of mammalian pyridine nucleotide transglycosidases.
Spectrophotometrical analysis of pyridine nucleotide transglycosidase in mammalian tissues indicated that the enzyme activity was observed to be distributed ubiquitously among the mammalian tissues analyzed, although the velocity ratio of transglycosidation/hydrolysis (vT/vH) and the partitioning of nicotinic acid against water differed with the pyridine nucleotide substrate and the mammalian s...
متن کاملA universal mammalian vaccine cell line substrate
Using genome-wide small interfering RNA (siRNA) screens for poliovirus, influenza A virus and rotavirus, we validated the top 6 gene hits PV, RV or IAV to search for host genes that when knocked-down (KD) enhanced virus permissiveness and replication over wild type Vero cells or HEp-2 cells. The enhanced virus replication was tested for 12 viruses and ranged from 2-fold to >1000-fold. There wer...
متن کاملRecent Advance in Melanogenesis
Solar radiation induces both acute and chronic responses in the skin. Sun burn, sun tan, generation of reactive oxygen species and immunosuppression are acute responses. Wrinkles, lentigines, post-inflammatory pigmentation are chronic damages. According to one study done in Japan, it was found out that the annual ultraviolet dose received by people living in Kagoshima was 1.6 times higher than ...
متن کاملSignaling Pathways in Melanogenesis
Melanocytes are melanin-producing cells found in skin, hair follicles, eyes, inner ear, bones, heart and brain of humans. They arise from pluripotent neural crest cells and differentiate in response to a complex network of interacting regulatory pathways. Melanins are pigment molecules that are endogenously synthesized by melanocytes. The light absorption of melanin in skin and hair leads to ph...
