Compositions and Methods for Treating Pigmentary Conditions and Melanoma
摘要：
A method of treating a hypopigmentary condition in a subject comprising administering to the subject an amount of SOX9 sufficient to treat melanoma is disclosed. The hypopigmentary condition can be a result of surgery, trauma or vitiligo. A method of treating a hyperpigmentary condition in a subject comprising administering to the subject an amount of inhibitor of SOX9 activity sufficient to treat melanoma is disclosed. A method of treating melanoma in a subject comprising administering to the subject an amount of SOX9 sufficient to treat melanoma is disclosed. A method of treating melanoma in a subject comprising increasing the amounts of retinoic acid and SOX9 in the subject by amounts sufficient to treat melanoma. A method of treating melanoma in a subject comprising administering to the subject an amount of prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) and retinoic acid (RA) sufficient to treat cancer. A method of sensitizing a melanoma cell to RA comprising administering to the subject an amount of SOX9 sufficient to decrease PRAME expression. A method of increasing p21 expression in a subject comprising administering to the subject an amount of SOX9 sufficient to increase p21 expression. Methods of screening for compounds that treat hypopigmentary conditions and/or melanoma are provided.
