    Melanocyte - Wikipedia

    • Melanocytes are melanin-producing neural crest-derived cells located in the bottom layer (the stratum basale) of the skin's epidermis, the middle layer of the eye (the uvea), the inner ear, vaginal epithelium, meninges, bones, and heart found in many mammals and birds. Melanin is a dark pigment primarily responsible for skin color. Once synthesized, mel… See more

    Function

    Through a process called melanogenesis, melanocytes produce melanin, which is a pigment found in the skin, eyes, hair, nasal cavity, and inner ear. This melanogenesis leads to a long-lasting pigmentation, which is in contra… See more

    Role in the immune system

    In addition to their role as UV radical scavengers, melanocytes are also part of the immune system, and are considered to be immune cells. Although the full role of melanocytes in immune response is not fully unders… See more

  9. People also ask
    How do melanocytes produce and distribute melanin?
    Melanocytes produce and distribute melanin, the pigment responsible for skin, hair, and eye color. Melanin provides protection against the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation from the sun. The epidermal melanin unit is a functional unit composed of a melanocyte and the surrounding keratinocytes to which it transfers melanin.

    Where are melanocytes found?
    Introduction: Melanocytes are cells which are present in the human skin and they are responsible for the melanin production. They can be found in the basal stratum of the epidermis and they have some prolongations extending until the stratum corneum.

    What is a mature melanocyte?
    The mature melanocytes are oval or fusiform dendritic cells, smaller than keratinocytes. EM studies identified special membrane-bound organelles, melanosomes, which are localized in the cytoplasm of melanocytes and are responsible for producing the UV absorbing pigment melanin 6.

    How many melanocytes are there in different races?
    In different races, the number of melanocytes is THE SAME. In light skinned people, the melanin is concentrated deep in the epidermis, particularly in the stratum basale layer. Differences in skin colour depend on how much melanin is produced, the size of the melanosomes, and the degree to which they aggregate.

    Why are melanocytes branched or dendritic?
    Melanocytes are branched, or dendritic, and their dendrites are used to transfer pigment granules to adjacent epidermal cells. All melanocytes, whether resident in the basal epidermis or in the matrix of the hair, have migrated there during embryonic life from a region known as the neural crest.

    How do melanocytes respond to pathogens?
    FIGURE 4. Melanocytes as sentinel immune cells in the skin. Melanocytes sense and respond to pathogens through intracellular or extracellular pattern recognition receptors, such as RIG-I, MDA5, and TLRs. These receptors activate melanocytes.
