MD investigation on the binding of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor with DNA [PDF]
Journal of Saudi Chemical Society, 2022 As a main regulator of melanocyte development and an key melanoma oncogene, microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is one of the proteins in the basic helix-loop-helix zipper (bHLHZip) transcription factor family. The study on the detailed

Fraxinol Stimulates Melanogenesis in B16F10 Mouse Melanoma Cells through CREB/MITF Signaling
Molecules, 2022 Melanin pigment produced in melanocytes plays a protective role against ultraviolet radiation. Selective destruction of melanocytes causes chronic depigmentation conditions such as vitiligo, for which there are very few specific medical treatments. Here,
