This article discusses pigmentation disorders in veterinary dermatology, focusing on the role of melanogenic pigmentation, and reports no new research results.

This literature review reports that mutations in the SASH1 gene are linked to different pigmentation disorders, including dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria and lentiginosis. It further suggests SASH1's significant role in melanocyte processes and its potential as a target for developing treatments for these conditions.

In this study, silencing BMAL1 and PER1 genes increased melanogenic activity in follicular and epidermal melanocytes, suggesting that peripheral circadian clocks may regulate melanin pigmentation.

This study found that transgenic expression of Endothelin 3 in mice can maintain a dark pigmentation phenotype independently of Mc1r signaling by regulating melanogenic genes.

This study found that CD34- melanocyte stem cells regenerated pigmentation more efficiently, while CD34+ cells showed potential for neuron myelination, suggesting different therapeutic applications for each population.
