Abstract: Skin pigmentation involves multiple processes, including melanin synthesis, transport, and melanosome release. Melanin content determines skin color and protects against UV radiation-induced damage. Autophagy is a cooperative process between autophagosomes and lysosomes that degrades cellular… read more here.

Abstract: Melanosomes are specialized membrane-bound organelles that are involved in melanin synthesis. Unlike melanosome biogenesis, the melanosome degradation pathway is poorly understood. Among the cellular processes, autophagy controls degradation of intracellular components by cooperating with lysosomes.… read more here.
