Research Abstract |
The aging society in Japan brings increased affected number of individuals with malignant cutaneous tumors. Sun exposure is the most essential environmental factor inducing cutaneous precancerosis and malignant tumors. Recent studies for inherited pigment anomalies identified the genes regulating skin color. We are currently investigating the relationship of cutaneous carcinogenesis and polymorphisms in the pigment-regulating genes including MC1R and P. This study would identify the Japanese subgroup to be recommended to protect sun exposure more intensively.
