Richards, Devenport et al. @princetonmolbio.bsky.social show that #melanocyte precursors form dynamic E-cadherin based attachments to surrounding #keratinocytes that stabilize migratory protrusions and sustain long-distance #migration as they colonize the #epidermis. rupress.org/jcb/article/...
☕Mohri et al. show that, in response to genotoxic stress, #melanocyte #StemCells undergo #senescence - associated differentiation, causing their depletion and protecting them against melanomagenesis. This process is suppressed by #carcinogens.

… and we are very happy that our study on extrinsic control of melanocyte functions is published - kudos to @caroleluthold.bsky.social & co-authors! We found that distinct #ECM components impinge on #MITF, #melanocyte differentiation & #mechanosensation. Find out more here: doi.org/10.1038/s443...
Sandra Iden @sandraiden.bsky.social @idenlab.bsky.social @uni-saarland.de @pharmascihub.bsky.social and co-workers show that #melanocyte #differentiation and #mechanosensation are differentially modulated by distinct extracellular matrix proteins. #ECM #MITF
