Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to survey melanocytes in the ability of self-assembly on biomaterials and functional analysis in vitro Also this study may provide a better way for treatment of vitiligo after understanding the functional aspects of melanocytes
Detailed Description:
Vitiligo is a chronic disease that causes loss of melanocyte and pigment of the skin Traditional treatments for vitiligo including topical corticosteroids and phototherapy lead to limited clinical effects Autologous melanocyte transplantation is another way to treat vitiligo However the effect is largely affected by whether cultivated melanocytes are successfully uptaken by vitiliginous skin The aim of this study is to survey the self-assembly on biomaterials and functional analysis In the long run this study may provide a better way for treatment of vitiligo
