Six Years of Genetic Diagnosis of Severe Early‐Onset Obesity in a French Cohort

open access: yesObesity Science &Practice, Volume 11, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective Obesity is a multifactorial disease with a strong genetic component. It is imperative to enhance the identification of genetic variations in their early and severe manifestations in order to facilitate the development of personalized therapeutic strategies, informed clinical care, and the facilitation of genetic counseling.

MC1R and the response of melanocytes to ultraviolet radiation [PDF]

open access: yesMutation Research - Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of Mutagenesis, 2005
The constitutive color of our skin plays a dramatic role in our photoprotection from solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) that reaches the Earth and in minimizing DNA damage that gives rise to skin cancer. More than 120 genes have been identified and shown to regulate pigmentation, one of the key genes being melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) that encodes the

Activation of the melanocortin-1 receptor attenuates neuronal apoptosis after traumatic brain injury by upregulating Merlin expression

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common disease worldwide with high mortality and disability rates. Besides the primary mechanical injury, the secondary injury associated with TBI can also induce numerous pathological changes, such as brain edema, nerve

Anti‐melanogenic effects of Medicago sativa seed extracts on melanocytes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 47, Issue 6, Page 1005-1016, December 2025.
Our study demonstrated that two types of alfalfa seed extract: alfalfa ethanol precipitate (AEP) and alfalfa ethanol supernatant (AES) inhibited melanogenesis through the downregulation of tyrosinase expression, following the inactivation of CREB, b‐catenin and ERK signalling pathway in α‐melanocyte‐stimulating hormone (α‐MSH)‐stimulated B16F10 mouse ...

Lack of somatic alterations of MC1R in primary melanoma [PDF]

open access: yesPigment Cell & Melanoma Research, 2008
SummaryGermline variation of the melanocortin 1 receptor gene (MC1R) is a risk factor for cutaneous melanoma. Recent studies have indicated that the risk is significantly higher for melanomas with somatic BRAF mutations, suggesting that MC1R variants may have a more specific role than their demonstrated effects on skin and hair pigmentation. To address

Melanocortin 1 receptor mediates melanin production by interacting with the BBSome in primary cilia.

open access: yesPLoS Biology
Production of melanin pigments is a protective mechanism of the skin against ultraviolet (UV)-induced damage and carcinogenesis. However, the molecular basis for melanogenesis is still poorly understood.
