6-3.Metabolizing of melanin |
The melanin granule made every day is made from endoplasm named melanosome(malanin
endoplasm). When it reaches a certain fixed amount, melanosome is sent
to a peripheral epidermic cell through the projection of melanocyte that
has expanded like the branch. The epidermis cell is pushed up facing it
on the skin surface along with keratinization with melanosome included.
Finally, it becomes dirt, it peels off from the surface of the skin, and
it falls. Meanwhile, the melanin pigment is generated from stratum basale
one after another. The balance of this excretion and generation is kept
for a normal skin. The cycle of the excretion and the generation of the
melanin pigment is called metabolize of the melanin. |

œIn metabolizing the melanin, another also has the one that falls into dermis
though it is pushed up on epidermis with the epidermis cell. Melanosome
not taken to the epidermis cell falls in dermis and is eaten by the macrophage.Afterwards, it is excreted to outside of the body via the blood vessel and the lymphocyte. However, the melanin metabolizing might not go well when some abnormalities are found in the skin, and melanosome that falls to dermis stay as it is. |
œIt is destroyed by lysosome at the end though melanosome becomes former
color by keratitinization in the form of the state as it is. The tone that
similar stratum corneum on the surface is thin has been. Because melanosome
decreases by going to epidermis. Melanosome is handed over with stratum
basale and stratum spinosum in the white race, and the melanin pigment
is lacked in the layer on any more. On the other hand, because melanosome
is large, and melanosome is carried even to stratum granulosum, the black
is shown in a black race. |
Metabolizing of melanin
‡@When ultraviolet rays is received, melanocyte causes the activity.
‡AThe melanin pigment is generated when ultraviolet rays is received, and
it changes into brown voluntarily though melanocyte usually does a light
color.
‡BThe melanin pigment contains tyrosinase of the oxidative enzyme, and tyrosine is made as a raw material in melanocyte as for tyrosinase.
‡CThe melanin pigment is sent in basale cell through the projection of
the branch that melanocyte extended.
‡DThis projection of the branch makes an umbo rush into basale cell, and
the projection part is taken, destroyed, digested, and the melanin pigment
diffuses.
‡EBasale cell matures to spinosum cell and granule cell, moves on, and
urges the diffusion of the melanin. When ultraviolet rays is received,
it is this that skin blackens
‡FIt is excreted by keratinization after it diffuses to the entire epidermis,
and it disappears to the macrophage (companion with the white blood corpuscle)
being eaten. This mechanism becomes remain a partial deposition of the
coloring matter with the disorder of the renewal of the skin and the decrease
it and it becomes a bristletail. |
