Abstract:
Skin pigmentation typically arises from the excessive secretion and accumulation of melanin, resulting in a darker complexion compared to normal skin. Currently, the local application of chemical drugs is a first-line strategy for pigmentation disorders, but the safety and efficacy of drugs still cannot meet clinical treatment needs. For long-term and safe medication, researchers have paid attention to natural products with higher biocompatibility. This article begins by examining the pathogenesis and treatment approaches of skin pigmentation diseases and summarizes the research progress and m

Abstract:
Pigmentation is a classic phenotype that varies widely and adaptively in nature both within and among taxa. Genes underlying pigmentation phenotype are highly pleiotropic, creating the potential for functional trade-offs. However, the basic tenets of this trade-off hypothesis with respect to life-history traits have not been directly addressed. In natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster , the degree of melanin pigmentation covaries with fecundity and several other fitness traits. To examine correlations and potential trade-offs associated with variation in pigmentation, we selected repl

Abstract:
We measured skin pigmentation by skin reflectance monthly from May 1992 to April 1993 in 36 healthy Caucasians. Pigmentation was measured at four UV-exposed sites at the forehead, the upper chest, the inside of the upper arm, and at the upper back. The pigmentation and UV sensitivity were simultaneously measured at UV-protected buttock skin. The results showed a considerable seasonal variation for skin pigmentation at the UV-exposed sites. Buttock skin had a pigmentation and UV sensitivity that varied only marginally. We recommend that measurements of genetically controlled skin pigmentation a

Abstract Skin color is a highly heritable human trait, and global variation in skin pigmentation has been shaped by natural selection, migration and admixture. Ethnically diverse African populations harbor extremely high levels of genetic and phenotypic diversity, and skin pigmentation varies widely across Africa. Recent genome-wide genetic studies of skin pigmentation in African populations have advanced our understanding of pigmentation biology and human evolutionary history. For example, novel roles in skin pigmentation for loci near MFSD12 and DDB1 have recently been identified in African

Developmental plasticity is ubiquitous in natural populations, but the underlying causes and fitness consequences are poorly understood.

Here, we tested how the diet quality of a freshwater detritivorous isopod ( Asellus aquaticus ), in terms of elemental ratios of diet (i.e. carbon : nitrogen : phosphorus; C : N : P),

The purpose of this study was the stabilization of anthocyanins from purple sweet potato through the co-pigmentation process.

Avian eggshell colouration fulfills multiple adaptive functions, including egg camouflage. The potential role of the two main eggshell pigments in oxidative stress, biliverdin and protoporphyrin, may be behind a relationship between female immunocompetence and eggshell pigment investment strategies. In this study, environmental conditions were manipulated during different life cycle stages, via a variety of methods, including food-restriction and stress hormone exposure in female Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica), in order to experimentally test the condition-dependence of eggshell

Abstract:
The eggshells of many avian species are spotted in appearance but the functional significance of such maculation is poorly understood. Protoporphyrin, responsible for brownish-red colouring on eggshells, is postulated to reinforce the structural integrity of eggshells under conditions when dietary calcium (Ca) is scarce. Within the context of this hypothesis, this thesis documents the use of Ca supplementation of two common British passerine species, blue (Cyanistes caeruleus) and great tits (Parus major), to explore the relationships between eggshell Ca and protoporphyrin content and visible
