    RCHY1 and OPTN Are Required for Melanophagy, Selective Autophagy of Melanosomes

    Scientists proposed that the β-mangostin-mediated melanin degradation mechanism was melanophagy, selective autophagy of melanosomes, and that autophagy receptor optineurin (OPTN) and an E3-ligase RCHY1 were required for this process.

    Endocytic Activation and Exosomal Secretion of Matriptase Stimulate the Second Wave of EGF Signaling to Promote Skin and Breast Cancer Invasion

    Investigators demonstrated a vesicular-trafficking-mediated interplay between matriptase and epidermal growth factor (EGF) signaling in skin and breast cancer promotion. EGF induced matriptase to undergo endocytosis together with the EGF receptor, followed by acid-induced activation in endosomes.

    Ketotifen Directly Modifies the Fibrotic Response of Human Skin Fibroblasts

    To determine direct effects on fibrotic fibroblasts, human dermal fibroblasts were treated with pro-fibrotic transforming growth factor-β1, followed by ketotifen or control treatments.

    ZEB1 Controls a Lineage-Specific Transcriptional Program Essential for Melanoma Cell State Transitions

    The authors performed a genome-wide characterization of ZEB1 transcriptional targets, by combining ChIP-sequencing and RNA-sequencing, upon phenotype switching in melanoma models.

    Dual-Specificity Kinase DYRK3 Phosphorylates p62 at the Thr-269 Residue and Promotes Melanoma Progression

    Researchers investigated whether dual-specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase (DYRK3) interacted with p62, and how this affected melanoma progression, particularly in melanoma cell lines.

    Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Skin Wound Healing

    The authors discuss the current understanding of the different phases of wound healing, from clot formation through re-epithelialization, angiogenesis and subsequent scar deposition.

    Abstract

    Anti-Cancer Mechanisms of Natural Isoflavones against Melanoma

    Scientists summarize the research progress of isoflavones in melanoma, including anti-melanoma roles and mechanisms of isoflavones via inhibition of tyrosinase activity, melanogenesis, melanoma cell growth, invasion of melanoma cells, and induction of apoptosis in melanoma cells.
