| Description: | (A) TRP1 proteins are detected in the cytoplasm of certain melanocytes engaged in eumelanin synthesis. (B) Similar numbers and distributions of melanocyte nuclei, which were detected by MITF antibody, within male and female cheek feathers. (C) qPCR validation of ASIP , MC1R , MITF , and SOX10 genes. (D) SOX10 proteins are expressed in melanocytes and partial keratinocytes of both male and female cheeks. Abbreviation: KT, keratinocytes; M, melanocytes. (PDF) |
