research Transgneic Endothelin 3 Regulates Murine Pigment Production and Coat Color
The gene Endothelin 3 makes mice's fur darker by increasing pigment cells and pigment levels.
research 1360 Regulation of bmp signalling in melanogenesis, pigment transfer and melanocyte migration
BMP signaling is important for skin color, affecting melanin production, pigment spread, and cell movement.
research Pimecrolimus increases the melanogenesis and migration of melanocytes in vitro
Pimecrolimus boosts melanin production and movement of skin pigment cells.
research The antimycotic agent clotrimazole inhibits melanogenesis by accelerating ERK and PI3K-/Akt-mediated tyrosinase degradation
