Ecto-mesenchymal stem cells from dental pulp are committed to differentiate into active melanocytes [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Cells & Materials, 2010
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are multipotent stem cells derived from neural crest and mesenchyme and have the capacity to differentiate into multiple cell lineages.

Mitotic Activity of Hairless Mouse Epidermal Melanocytes: Its Role in the Increase of Melanocytes During Ultraviolet Radiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
Using split epidermal sheets treated with colchicine, a quantitative study was carried out on hairless mouse epidermal melanocytes and those in mitosis, during 14 daily exposures to UV.

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

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

signaling in normal human melanocytes

open access: yes, 2015
Pleiotrophin (PTN) is a secreted heparin-binding protein that is involved in various biological functions of cell growth and differentiation. Little is known about the effects of PTN on the melanocyte function and skin pigmentation.

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Secretopathies emerge as a new class of neurocristopathies

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient embryonic population of cells that give rise to a wide range of structures, including craniofacial cartilage and bone, peripheral neurons and glia, as well as components of the cardiac outflow tract, among others.

Apigenin and Phloretin Combination for Skin Aging and Hyperpigmentation Regulation

open access: yesCosmetics
Melasma is a pathology with multifactorial causes that results in hyperpigmentation of sun-exposed areas, particularly facial skin. New treatments targeting the different factors regulating this condition need to be effective with and have limited ...

Melanocyte response following depigmentation by cryosurgery and mucosal excision: A comparative clinical and histopathological study

open access: yesContemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2019
Aims: The main aim of this study was to evaluate the melanocyte response following depigmentation by cryosurgery and mucosal excision at both clinical and histopathological levels during 6 months.
