What Researchers Are Exploring Melanogenesis & Pigmentation MT-IIs primary documented mechanism involves stimulation of MC1R on melanocytes, upregulating tyrosinase activity and driving melanin synthesis
Obesity, particularly central or abdominal obesity, increases insulin resistance, thereby making it difficult for the body to regulate blood sugar levels
