July 2025 in “Frontiers in Genetics” In this study, researchers classified melanomas by filaggrin expression levels and found that in filaggrinHigh melanomas, there are significant changes in FGFR signaling and impaired GNA14 and Th1 signatures, linked to genetic and immune alterations associated with pruritus.
This study found that in mice, the epidermal microenvironment reverses the oncogenic effects of GNAQQ209L in melanocytes, inhibiting their survival and proliferation through paracrine signals.
This study found that the survival and proliferation of mouse melanocytes expressing the GNAQQ209L oncogene were impaired by interactions with the epidermal microenvironment, suggesting a possible mechanism for the rarity of these mutations in epidermal melanomas.
This study found that GNAQQ209L expression in mouse melanocytes led to reduced survival in the interfollicular epidermis due to paracrine signaling, while GNAQQ209L boosted survival in a different microenvironment.

December 2016 in “Scientific Reports” This study identified genomic regions and candidate genes that may contribute to phenotypic diversity in coat color, body size, cashmere traits, and high-altitude adaptation in domesticated goat breeds.
