Pratol, an O-Methylated Flavone, Induces Melanogenesis in B16F10 Melanoma Cells via p-p38 and p-JNK Upregulation

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
Tyrosinase is the rate-limiting enzyme critical for melanin synthesis. It controls pigmentation in the skin. Activation of tyrosinase is currently the most common approach in the development of tanning and haircare products.

Melasma-like hyperpigmentation: A rare side effect of imatinib mesylate

open access: yesJournal of the Scientific Society, 2023
Imatinib mesylate is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor used chiefly to treat chronic myeloid leukemia. In the literature, hypopigmentation is a commonly reported side effect of imatinib therapy; however, the cases of melasma-like hyperpigmentation due to

Mucocutaneous Disease Activity and Damage Accrual in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Analyses From the Asia‐Pacific Lupus Collaboration Longitudinal Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This research article aims to describe the prevalence, associations, and health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) impact of mucocutaneous features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Data from the Asia‐Pacific Lupus Collaboration cohort were analyzed (2013–2021).

A genome-wide association study reveals a locus for bilateral iridal hypopigmentation in Holstein Friesian cattle

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2017
Background Eye pigmentation abnormalities in cattle are often related to albinism, Chediak-Higashi or Tietz like syndrome. However, mutations only affecting pigmentation of coat color and eye have also been described.

Skin Pigmentation Types, Causes and Treatment—A Review

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Human skin pigmentation and melanin synthesis are incredibly variable, and are impacted by genetics, UV exposure, and some drugs. Patients’ physical appearance, psychological health, and social functioning are all impacted by a sizable number of skin ...

Anomalous colour in Neotropical mammals: a review with new records for Didelphis sp. (Didelphidae, Didelphimorphia) and Arctocephalus australis (Otariidae, Carnivora)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Anomalous colourations occur in many tropical vertebrates. However, they are considered rare in wild populations, with very few records for the majority of animal taxa. We report two new cases of anomalous colouration in mammals.

Heat Stress Promotes Fibroblast‐Derived WNT5A Secretion Through m6A Modification to Activate Melanogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Heat stress promotes WNT5A secretion from fibroblasts via METTL3/YTHDC1‐dependent m6A methylation. Subsequently, WNT5A binds to FZD10 on melanocytes, activating β‐catenin‐driven melanogenesis. ABSTRACT As the impact of global warming continues to intensify, the effects of heat stress on the skin are becoming increasingly evident.

The association between neural crest‐derived glia and melanocyte lineages throughout development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common

The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion. Fnm, frontonasal mass; lnp, lateral nasal process; mnp, medial nasal process; mxp, maxillary process; np, nasal

Validated, Reliable, and Novel Skin Frailty Scale for Outpatient Usage and Its Association With Age, Sex, and Non‐Melanoma Skin Cancer: An Observational Study

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Skin frailty (SF) is a common condition affecting adults aged ≥65 years. However, the lack of a validated and reliable visual scale to assess SF severity is a barrier to clinical care and research. In this study, we developed a 9‐parameter Skin Frailty Score (SFS), validated by two board‐certified dermatologists and meeting item and scale level content
