Key Finding
Spectrophotometric analysis at 500 nm showed significantly higher absorbance in the HVP group ( p DCT ) overexpression, combined with L-tyrosine (L-Tyr) supplementation, significantly increased melanin content ( p DCT silencing reduced melanin secretion and inhibited cell growth. These findings demonstrate that HVP is driven by DCT overexpression and excessive eumelanin deposition.
Countstar Connection
In this work, Countstar Rigel S2 measured cell viability in the study's cell samples before single-cell analysis for the reported research.
