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

Microphthalmia-Associated Transcription Factor (MITF) Regulates Immune Cell Migration into Melanoma

Translational Oncology, 2019
Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is a key transcription factor in melanoma development and progression. MITF amplification and downregulation have been observed in a significant proportion of melanoma patients and correlate with ...

Pleurochrysis carterae Hot-Water Extract Inhibits Melanogenesis in Murine Melanoma Cells

Cosmetics, 2019
In this study, we examined the effect of a hot-water extract of coccolithophore Pleurochrysis carterae on melanogenesis in B16F1 and B16F10 melanoma cells. P.

MD investigation on the binding of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor with DNA

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

Phyllanthus acidus (L.) Skeels and Rhinacanthus nasutus (L.) Kurz leaf extracts suppress melanogenesis in normal human epidermal melanocytes and reconstitutive skin culture

Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Medicine, 2019
Objective: To determine the effect of extracts from Phyllanthus acidus (P. acidus) (L.) Skeels and Rhinacanthus nasutus (R. nasutus) (L.) Kurz leaves on melanogenesis and the underlying mechanism in normal human epidermal melanocytes (NHEM) and a ...

Oncogenic BRAF regulates melanoma proliferation through the lineage specific factor MITF. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2008
The Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is an important regulator of cell-type specific functions in melanocytic cells. MITF is essential for the survival of pigmented cells, but whereas high levels of MITF drive melanocyte ...

MITF Contributes to the Body Color Differentiation of Sea Cucumbers Apostichopus japonicus through Expression Differences and Regulation of Downstream Genes

Biology, 2022
Melanin, which is a pigment produced in melanocytes, is an important contributor to sea cucumber body color. MITF is one of the most critical genes in melanocyte development and melanin synthesis pathways.

Subcellular localization of Mitf in monocytic cells [PDF]

Histochemistry and Cell Biology, 2010
Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (Mitf) is a transcription factor that plays an important role in regulating the development of several cell lineages. The subcellular localization of Mitf is dynamic and is associated with its transcription activity.

Curcuma longa L. (Zingiberaceae) extract protects against epithelial damage and reduces the expression of the microphthalmia-associated transcription factor in UVB-exposed Wistar rats [PDF]

Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmacognosy Research
Context: Disproportionate subjection to solar ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation may alter the physiology of human skin. Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is the principal regulator of melanogenesis in the skin.
