Prostaglandin-E(2) is produced by adult human epidermal melanocytes in response to UVB in a melanogenesis-independent manner

Excessive ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure induces erythema, mediated in part by prostaglandin-E(2) (PGE(2)). While keratinocytes are a major PGE(2) source, epidermal melanocytes (EM) also express PGE(2)-production machinery. It is unclear whether EM-produced PGE(2) contributes to UVR-induced sk...
