Expression patterns of melanin‐related genes are linked to crypsis and conspicuousness in a pumpkin toadlet

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Colour signals play pivotal roles in different communication systems, and the evolution of these characters has been associated with behavioural ecology, integumentary production processes and perceptual mechanisms of the species involved. Here, we present the first insight into the molecular and histological basis of skin colour polymorphism ...

Genomic stress in diseases stemming from defects in the second brain

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
The enteric nervous system, a.k.a., second brain, is subject to a range of genotoxic exposures that include intrinsic oxidative stress and extrinsic agents associated with ingested foods, inflammation, and dysbiosis. Resulting DNA damage, if left unrepaired, can induce cell dysfunction or death, resulting in gut abnormalities and enteric neuropathy ...

Characterization of Oral Melanocytic Nevi in Sun‐Exposed and Sun‐Protected Regions

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Oral melanocytic nevi (OMN) are histologically similar to skin nevi; however, they are much rarer and not always related to sun exposure. This study aimed to characterize the histopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular features of OMN in sun‐exposed (vermilion lip) and sun‐protected (intraoral) regions.

Plant‐Derived Monomers for Grey Hair Reversal Through Upregulation of Melanogenesis and Tyrosinase Activity [PDF]

J Cell Mol Med
ABSTRACT Grey hair, a common ageing‐associated phenomenon in humans, is mainly attributed to the damage of melanocytes and the absence of melanin. Grey hair has long been treated with traditional medicine, and new research has shown that various plant‐derived monomers can increase tyrosinase activity and melanogenesis, indicating that they may have ...
