    The ASIC3-M-CSF-M2 Macrophage-Positive Feedback Loop Modulates Fibroblast-to-Myofibroblast Differentiation in Skin Fibrosis Pathogenesis

    The polarization of M2 macrophages transduced by the acid-sensing ion channel 3 (ASIC3)-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) signal promoted the differentiation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts through transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), thereby producing an ASIC3-M-CSF-TGF-β1 positive feedback loop.

    Lattice-Patterned Collagen Fibers and Their Dynamics in Axolotl Skin Regeneration

    Researchers succeeded in visualizing collagen-producing cells and produced collagen using the axolotl skin, which is highly transparent. The visualized dermal collagen had a lattice-like structure.

    Abstract

    UVB-Induced SFRP1 Methylation Potentiates Skin Damage by Promoting Cell Apoptosis and DNA Damage

    Researchers found a significant downregulation of secreted frizzled-related protein 1 (SFRP1) in HaCaT, A431, and SCL-1 cells after ultraviolet radiation B (UVB) irradiation.

    Abstract

    VDAC1 Negatively Regulates Melanogenesis through the Ca2+-Calcineurin-CRTC1-MITF Pathway

    Knockdown of VDAC1 increased free cytosolic Ca2+ in cultured melanocytes at the resting state, which activated calcineurin through the Ca2+-calmodulin-CaN pathway.

    ROS-Triggered Nanoinducer Based on Dermatan Sulfate Enhances Immunogenic Cell Death in Melanoma

    Scientists proposed a nanoinducer based on a functional dermatan sulfate (DS) for melanoma. This nanosystem is composed of DS as framework, aromatic thioketal derivative as functional grafting unit and doxorubicin designed as an immunogenic cell death inducer.

    Inhibition of USP14 Enhances Anti-tumor Effect in Vemurafenib-Resistant Melanoma by Regulation of Skp2

    In vitro, the effect of the combination regimen of vemurafenib and b-AP15 on vem-sensitive and vem-resistant melanoma has been investigated by wound healing, colony formation, transwell invasion assay, flow cytometry, lysosome staining, and ROS detection.

    Abstract

    ALDH1A1 Overexpression in Melanoma Cells Promotes Tumor Angiogenesis by Activating the IL-8/Notch Signaling Cascade

    In a 3D multicellular system, obtained co‑culturing melanoma cancer cells with stromal cells, including ECs, melanoma ALDH1A1 overexpression induced the recruitment of ECs into the core of the tumorspheres.
