ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of cycloheximide and TNF-alpha on melanocyte (MC).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Melanocyte apoptosis was studied with MTT, transmitting electron microscopy and fluorescence labeling of alive cells.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>We added TNF-alpha and cycloheximide in melanocytes, and the typical apoptosis appeared 24 hours later, with chromatin condensation, nuclear pyknosis and apoptotic bodies formation. The results of cytometry showed the typical apoptotic peak.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>TNF-alpha and cycloheximide together could inhibit MC proliferation and induce MC apoptosis.</p>
