    ERBB3 Binding Protein 1 Promotes the Progression of Malignant Melanoma through Activation of the Wnt/ β-Catenin Signaling Pathway

    ERBB3 binding protein 1 (Ebp1) expression was substantially higher in malignant melanoma (MM) than it was in normal skin, and Ebp1 was linked to the clinical stage and lymph node metastases of patients with MM.

    Effects of Acanthus ebracteatus Vahl. Extract and Verbascoside on Human Dermal Papilla and Murine Macrophage

    In controlled in vitro assays, it was found that Acanthus ebracteatus Vahl. extract and verbascoside at various concentrations induced dermal papilla cell proliferation which was indicated by an increase in the number of cells in the S and G2/M phases of the cell cycle.

    Micro-Injury Induces Hair Regeneration and Vitiligo Repigmentation Through Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway

    Researchers discovered that proper micro-injury effectively induced hair regeneration by activating the hair follicle stem cell proliferation and migration downwards to the hair matrix, finally shifting the hair follicle stage from telogen into anagen.

    Abstract

    MITF Activity Is Regulated by a Direct Interaction with RAF Proteins in Melanoma Cells

    By investigating the role of ARAF in NRAS-driven mouse melanoma through mass spectrometry experiments followed by a functional siRNA-based screen, scientists unexpectedly identified MITF as a direct ARAF partner.

    APLNR Regulates IFN-γ Signaling via β-Arrestin 1 Mediated JAK-STAT1 Pathway in Melanoma Cells

    Investigators showed that activation of apelin receptor (APLNR) upregulated IFN-γ signaling in melanoma cells through APLNR mediated β-arrestin 1 but not β-arrestin 2 recruitment.

    Abstract

    Weekly Treatment with SAMiRNA Targeting the Androgen Receptor Ameliorates Androgenetic Alopecia

    SAMiRNA-AR68 could be efficiently delivered to human follicle dermal papilla cells and hair follicles, and this treatment decreased the androgen receptor mRNA and protein levels.

    TIM-3 Shuttled by MV3 Cells-Secreted Exosomes Inhibits CD4+ T Cell Immune Function and Induces Macrophage M2 Polarization to Promote the Growth and Metastasis of Melanoma Cells

    Silencing of T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (TIM-3) shuttled by MV3 cells-derived exosomes improved CD4+ T cell immune function and inhibited macrophage M2 polarization to attenuate the growth and metastasis of melanoma cells.

    Evidence of Telomere Attrition and a Potential Role for DNA Damage in Systemic Sclerosis

    To investigate the role of cell senescence in systemic sclerosis (SSc), the authors analyzed telomere shortening in SSc patients and the effect of targeting DNA damage in the bleomycin model of skin fibrosis.
