" In this study, we investigated the antimelanogenic activity of combination of AZ and taurine (Tau) in B16F10 mouse melanoma cells."7.76Effect of combination of taurine and azelaic acid on antimelanogenesis in murine melanoma cells. ( Kim, AK; Yu, JS, 2010)
"Using a clonogenic assay in vitro, it has been shown that exposure to azelaic acid (1-100 mM) for 24 hours has a dose-dependent effect on the survival of the colony-forming ability of murine (B16) and human (HMB2, and SK23) melanoma cells as compared with a non-melanotic non-tumoral Chinese hamster cell line (CHO)."7.69Effect of azelaic acid on melanoma cells in culture. ( Breathnach, AS; Lemic-Stojcevic, L; Nias, AH, 1995)

"In 23 patients with malignant melanoma, including some with metastases and terminal patients, topical and oral (10--15 g daily) azelaic acid given for 1--12 weeks before surgical excision of the lesions was followed by arrest and subsequent regression of the advancing edge of lesions, reduction in size and flattening of nodular areas, and progressive lightening of pigmentation."7.66Effect of azelaic acid on human malignant melanoma. ( Bernengo, A; Breathnach, A; Gallagher, S; Morpurgo, G; Nazzaro-Porro, M; Passi, S; Zina, G, 1980)
"Azelaic acid has been shown clinically to have a cytotoxic effect on the abnormally active and malignant human melanocyte, but it has no apparent effect upon normal melanocytes."5.27Ultrastructural observations on the effect of azelaic acid on normal human melanocytes and a human melanoma cell line in tissue culture. ( Bennett, D; Bhasin, Y; Breathnach, AS; Ethridge, L; Nazzaro-Porro, M; Passi, S; Picardo, M; Robins, EJ; Ward, BJ, 1985)

( de Moragas, JM; Puig, L; Rocamora, V; Romaní, J, 1999)
