Abstract:
Although melanin is viewed as a natural sunscreen that protects pigmented cells against the adverse effects of solar radiation, recent studies have demonstrated that, under certain conditions, the pigment can actually contribute to light-induced oxidative damage of the cells. However, the main issue with such studies is finding natural pigments without photooxidative modifications. Recently, melanin obtained from melanocytes, generated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC-Mel), was suggested as a promising source of the pigment without significant photooxidation.

Abstract:
The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), which ensures the normal functioning of the neural retina, is a pigmented single-cell layer that separates the retina from the Bruch’s membrane and the choroid. There are three main types of pigment granules in the RPE cells of the human eye: lipofuscin granules (LG) containing the fluorescent “age pigment” lipofuscin, melanoprotein granules (melanosomes, melanolysosomes) containing the screening pigment melanin and complex melanolipofuscin granules (MLG) containing both types of pigments simultaneously—melanin and lipofuscin.

Photoreactivity of melanin has become a major focus of research due to the postulated involvement of the pigment in UVA-induced melanoma.

Here, we examined the photoreactive properties of natural melanins isolated from hair samples obtained from donors of different skin phototypes (I, II, III, and V).

Melanins are complex, polymeric pigments with interesting properties like UV-light absorbance ability, metal ion chelation capacity, antimicrobial action, redox behaviors, and scavenging properties. Based on these characteristics, melanins might be applied in different industrial fields like food packaging, environmental bioremediation, and bioelectronic fields. The actual melanin manufacturing process is not environmentally friendly as it is based on extraction and purification from cuttlefish.

Diseases caused by rust fungi represent critical constraints to global plant production. A characteristic feature of these pathogens is the striking pigments they produce in one or more spore forms, which give them a rusty appearance. These pigments are thought to protect rust fungi against UV radiation and oxidative stress, and possibly act as virulence factors. The cytoplasmic carotenoid pigment composition and relative abundance of 14 rust species were studied, including Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), P. striiformis f. sp. tritici, P. triticina, P. hordei, P. psidii, P. thaliae, P

Cutaneous melanoma afflicts mainly fair-skinned people of European origin, among whom sun exposure is the major cause. Five-year relative survival can exceed 90%.

Abstract:
Because of the possible role of melanin in various ocular pathologies, it is important to develop a noninvasive objective measurement of this ocular pigment. We have used imaging fundus reflectometry to assess the spatial distribution of melanin within the macular region. A microchannel plate-intensifier solid-state video camera viewed an area of the fundus (21° horizontally by 16° vertically) through the optics of a modified Zeiss fundus camera. A fiber-optic lightguide illuminated by a computer-controlled optical system replaced the normal Zeiss light source. Images of the unbleached and ble

Abstract:
Laser sources producing output in the yellow spectral region are of interest for a variety of display, remote-sensing and medical applications, including the removal of vascular lesions, for which the main requirement for the laser is strong absorption by haemoglobin, with minimal absorption by the melanin pigment in tissue. Average powers of about 0.5 to 1W are required at 580nm+/-5nm, and a high repetition-rate source is beneficial in reducing thermal damage to the surrounding tissue. A solid-state laser source would offer an attractive alternative to the laser sources currently used for the

Abstract:
Melanins are pigmented biomacromolecules found throughout all domains of life. Of melanins’ many unique properties, their malleable electrically conductive properties and their ability to chelate could allow them to serve as material for bioelectronics. Studies have shown that sheets or pellets of melanin conduct low levels of electricity; however, electrical conductance of melanin within a cellular context has not been thoroughly investigated. In addition, given the chelating properties of melanin, it is possible that introducing traditionally con-ductive metal ions could improve the conducti
