    • 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 understood, melanocytes share many characteristics with dendritic cells: branched morphology; phagocytic capabilities; presentation of antig… See more

    Overview

    Melanocytes are melanin-producing neural crest-derived cells located in the bottom layer (the stratum basale) of the skin's 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

  2. Melanocytes are found within the basal layer of the epidermis, hair follicles, and the inner ear. They have dark-staining nuclei that are typically smaller in size than those of surrounding basal keratinocytes. They also have a clear halo of cytoplasm, which is an artifact of tissue processing.
