Denovirus in Rat SkinFemale Sprague Dawley (SD) rats, each weighing approximately 200 g, were used (Orient Bio, Gapyung, Korea). Fifty ml of recombinant virus solution (109 particles) prepared in PBS was injected intradermally into the dorsal skin of rats using a microsyringe with a 28-gauge hypodermic needle. The rats were sacrificed 10 day after intradermal injection and the dorsal skins were removed for histochemical analysis.Ultraviolet B (UVB) IrradiationFor UVB irradiation, TL20 lamp (Philips, Eindhoven, The Netherlands) was employed as a light source; this instrument emits the UV light of wavelength ranging between 280 and 320, peaking at 310 nm. Flux intensity was measured by an IL700A research radiometer fitted with an UVB filter and a W diffuser (International Light Inc, Newburyport, MA). UVB irradiation was performed on subconfluent cultures. Control cells were mock irradiated. Before UVB exposure, keratinocytes were washed twice with excess phosphate buffered saline (PBS), and then 1 ml of PBS was added onto 100-mm cell dish during the UVB irradiation. After UVB irradiation, cells were fed with fresh growth medium (0.01 mM calcium). Cells were harvested after 24 h incubation.TUNEL AssayFor the direct detection of apoptosis, cells were analyzed by TUNEL kit (Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Mannheim, Germany). Briefly, cells were placed on glass slides and then fixed with 4 paraformaldehyde in PBS for 60 min at room temperature, washed in PBS and permeabilized with 0.1 Triton X-100 inAuthor ContributionsConceived and designed the experiments: GS KCS CDK JHL.

Skin melanoma is one of the most aggressive tumours in humans, showing high mortality at the metastatic stage, and increasing incidence worldwide. [1] Melanoma accounts for about 4 of skin cancers, causing however about 80 of skin cancerrelated deaths in western countries. Despite promising recent improvement at the therapeutic level, [2?] surgical excision remains at this moment the most effective treatment at early stages, while therapeutic interventions have weak efficacy at advanced phases due to high metastatic potential and resistance to currently available therapies. [7]. Improving early diagnosis may therefore strongly affect melanoma-related mortality. Melanoma diagnosis routinely starts from non-invasive dermatoscopy- and epiluminescence-based skininspection, to identify phenotypic features of the pigmented lesion. [8] Trained dermatologists still experience significant error-rate giving misdiagnosis and delay in treatment, and formal diagnosis still 23977191 requires to be confirmed by histological analysis. [9] Hence, alternative non-invasive procedures are needed to improve the early non-invasive diagnostic accuracy. Several reports indicate melanogenesis as a key process in the melanoma biology. [10,11] Melanin synthesis involves an eFT508 site oxidation/reduction reactions chain leading to the synthesis of final organic polymers. The intermediate free radicals formed within such process [12] give melanin paramagnetic properties. [13] Besides free radicals, melanin may also contain or interact with metal ions and paramagnetic gases (dioxygen, nitric oxide) which also contribute to its paramagnetic properties.
