  • Title: Keratinocyte damage in vitiligo.
    Author: Bhawan J, Bhutani LK.
    Journal: J Cutan Pathol; 1983 Jun; 10(3):207-12. PubMed ID: 6190850.
    Abstract:
    Light and electron-microscopic studies were performed on the amelanotic and adjacent normal-appearing skin in patients with vitiligo. The amelanotic skin revealed complete loss of pigment and absence of melanocytes. In addition to severe degenerative changes of melanocytes, varying degree of damage was also seen in the keratinocytes of normal-appearing skin adjacent to amelanotic skin.
