  • $100T economy—

    Bitcoin is *NOT* a currency? You combat governments?

    Bitcoin — money or property — peaceful resolution.

    *NOT* “currency”

    Not crypto currency —

    Bitcoin is money but not currency

    Bitcoin > Gold & Real Estate

  • How does your body produce melanin?

    Ultraviolet (UV) radiation triggers melanin production in a finely tuned biological response designed to protect the skin from damage. Here’s a step-by-step overview of how UV light stimulates melanin production:

    1. UV Exposure and DNA Damage: When skin is exposed to UV radiation, particularly UVB rays, it can damage the DNA in the skin cells. This damage is a signal that the skin may be at risk of harm, such as sunburn or longer-term effects like skin cancer.
    2. Activation of Melanocytes: The damaged cells release signaling molecules including hormones and cytokines such as alpha-MSH (alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone). These molecules bind to receptors on melanocytes, the cells in the skin responsible for producing melanin.
    3. Stimulation of Melanin Synthesis: Once activated by alpha-MSH, melanocytes increase their production of the enzyme tyrosinase, which is crucial for the synthesis of melanin. Tyrosinase catalyzes the conversion of the amino acid tyrosine into melanin.
    4. Increased Melanin Production: As a result of this stimulation, melanocytes accelerate the production of melanin. The type and amount of melanin produced can vary depending on genetic factors and the extent of UV exposure.
    5. Transfer of Melanin: The melanin produced is then packaged into melanosomes, which are transferred to the surrounding skin cells (keratinocytes). In these cells, melanin accumulates around the nucleus, where it can effectively absorb and scatter UV radiation, thereby protecting DNA from further UV-induced damage.
    6. Tanning Response: As a visible response, this increase in melanin leads to a darker pigmentation of the skin, commonly known as tanning, which helps provide an increased level of protection against UV rays.

    The process is part of the skin’s innate defense mechanism, designed to prevent UV light from causing further damage to skin cells. This protective response, however, has limits and can be overwhelmed by excessive UV exposure, leading to sunburn and increasing the risk of skin damage and cancer over time.

    Melanin production in the body is a fascinating biological process primarily occurring within specialized cells called melanocytes. These cells are located in the skin, hair follicles, eyes, and some areas of the brain. Here’s a breakdown of how melanin is produced:

    1. Synthesis Initiation: The process begins when the enzyme tyrosinase catalyzes the conversion of the amino acid tyrosine into a molecule called DOPA (dihydroxyphenylalanine), and then into dopaquinone.
    2. Melanin Formation: Dopaquinone undergoes several complex chemical reactions to form different types of melanin, mainly eumelanin (brown to black pigments) and pheomelanin (red to yellow pigments). The type and amount of melanin produced depend on genetic factors and are influenced by enzymatic activity within the melanocytes.
    3. Influence of Enzymes and Genes: The activity of enzymes like tyrosinase is crucial for melanin production. Genetic factors regulate these enzymes and thus influence the quantity and type of melanin produced.
    4. Response to UV Radiation: Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun can increase melanin production. UV radiation stimulates melanocytes to produce more melanin, which helps to absorb and disperse UV rays, protecting skin cells from UV damage.
    5. Transport to Keratinocytes: Once melanin is produced in the melanocytes, it is packaged into tiny organelles called melanosomes. These are then transferred to the surrounding skin cells (keratinocytes), which use the melanin as a shield against UV radiation.

    This process not only determines skin, hair, and eye color but also plays a critical role in protecting the body from UV radiation-related damage.
