Study of the number of melanocytes and amount of pigmentation in hypopigmented lesions and adjacent normal areas in 20 leprosy patients showed no differences in these parameters. It appears that hypopigmentation in leprosy lesions could be caused by defective transfer of melanin into keratinocytes.
对20例麻风患者色素减退性皮损及其相邻正常区域黑素细胞数量和色素沉着量的研究表明，这些参数并无差异。麻风皮损中的色素减退似乎可能是由于黑色素向角质形成细胞的转运缺陷所致。
