Amelanocytes are specialized cells found in the skin that play a role in the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. While they are not directly involved in melanin synthesis, amelanocytes refer to a specific type of melanocyte that lacks melanin. These cells can be important in understanding certain skin conditions and disorders related to pigmentation.
