Human skin color
Role of light in human skin color variation
The major source of color in human skin derives from the presence within the epidermis of specialized melanin‐bearing organelles, the melanosomes. Tanning of human skin on exposure to ultraviolet light results from increased amounts of melanin within the epidermis. Melanosomes synthesized by melanocytes are acquired by keratinocytes and transported within them to the epidermal surface. In some cases, the melanosomes are catabolized en route . New…
