About this organization
Mission
Melanoma Know More strives to reduce the impact of melanoma through awareness, education, support of medical research, and assistance to persons affected by melanoma.
About
Melanoma Know More Research: Melanoma Know More made a financial contribution to support the continued research being conducted at the Dr. Zalfa Abdel-Malek laboratory at the University of Cincinnati. Dr. Abdel-Malek's research is focused on investigating the function of the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R), its agonists a-melanocyte stimulating hormone (a-MSH) and ACTH, and antagonists agouti signaling protein and human -defensin 3 in regulating cutaneous pigmentation and the response to UV radiation. She was among the first to demonstrate that human melanocytes express functional MC1R and that activation of this receptor is critical for the melanogenic (i.e. tanning response) to UV.
