Abstract

Melanogenesis is the synthesis of the skin pigment melanin, which serves a critical role in the study of pigmentary skin diseases. Syntenin has been identified as a melanosome protein, but its role in melanogenesis is not completely understood. The present study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms underlying syntenin on melanogenesis in immortalized human melanocytes. Depletion of syntenin expression increased both tyrosinase (Tyr) activity and melanin content. Syntenin silencing also increased the protein expression levels of Tyr, pre‑melanosomal protein and microphthalmia‑associated transcription factor. In addition, the results indicated that syntenin regulated melanogenesis by upregulating the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen‑activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK). Taken together, these findings suggested that the regulation of melanogenesis by syntenin may be mediated by the activation of p38 MAPK and that syntenin might provide new insights into the pathogenesis of pigmented diseases.
