Melanin has a role in Ca2+ homeostasis in human melanocytes
No === We have examined whether melanin affects Ca2+ homeostasis in cultured normal human melanocytes. Intracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i), were measured in four Caucasian and in three Negroid melanocyte cultures. Under resting conditions [Ca2+]i was around 100 nM in all cultures, but differ...
