Bakuchiol: From structural mimicry to systems‐level skin biology

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Convergent outcomes, divergent mechanisms: bakuchiol vs. retinol. Bakuchiol exhibits functional convergence with retinol in improving extracellular matrix integrity, epidermal differentiation and barrier function, while operating through distinct mechanisms.

Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) – from Waardenburg syndrome genetics to melanoma therapy

Acta Medica Academica, 2010
Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) was first discovered as protein coded by gene whose mutations are associated with Waardenburg syndrome. Later, MITF was shown to be key transcription factor regulating melanogenesis.

CHARGE Syndrome: A Narrative Review and Update on Diagnosis, Assessment and Management

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background CHARGE syndrome (CS) is a rare multisystemic genetic condition caused by a pathogenic variant in the DNA‐binding protein‐7 CHD7 gene. The condition affects the development of neural crest cells, which give rise to craniofacial structures, cranial nerves, ears, eyes and the heart, resulting in diverse and complex clinical features ...

DNA promoter hypermethylation of melanocyte lineage genes determines melanoma phenotype

JCI Insight, 2022
Cellular stress contributes to the capacity of melanoma cells to undergo phenotype switching into highly migratory and drug-tolerant dedifferentiated states.

Mitophagy in skeletal muscle: Impact of ageing, exercise and disuse

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle plays an important role in whole‐body health, quality of life and regulation of metabolism. The maintenance of a healthy mitochondrial pool is imperative for the preservation of skeletal muscle quality and is mediated through mitochondrial quality control consisting of mitochondrial turnover mediated by a balance between ...

MITF expression in acral melanoma tissues and its association with clinical, pathological characteristics and prognosis [PDF]

Zhongguo aizheng zazhi
Background and purpose: The microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) plays a complex role in melanoma pathogenesis and progression. It is known to regulate multiple processes both in melanocytes and melanoma cells.

The impact of MITF expression on tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in melanoma: Insights into immune microenvironment dynamics

Biomolecules & Biomedicine
Melanoma progression is influenced by complex interactions between tumor cells and the immune microenvironment. This study examined the relationship between microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) expression and the immune microenvironment

Isolation, Structural Elucidation, and Anti‐Melanogenic Activity of a Novel Pectic Polysaccharide From Alhagi camelorum Fisch

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 11, November 2026.
Polysaccharide extraction from Alhagi camelorum Fisch. was optimized, yielding ACP‐II‐1, a novel GalA‐rich, HG‐dominant pectin (26.145 kDa) containing branched RG‐I domains. ACP‐II‐1 reduced melanogenesis in forskolin‐stimulated B16F10 cells and a zebrafish model.

Transcription factor MITF and remodeller BRG1 define chromatin organisation at regulatory elements in melanoma cells

eLife, 2015
Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is the master regulator of the melanocyte lineage. To understand how MITF regulates transcription, we used tandem affinity purification and mass spectrometry to define a comprehensive MITF interactome

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

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 59, 23 October 2026.
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.
