Mitfa-Independent Melanocyte Progenitors are Highly Susceptible to GNAQ-induced Uveal Melanoma in Adult Zebrafish

Julius I. Yevdash, Delaney Robinson, Rachel Moore, Zhijie Li, Katelyn R. Campbell-Hanson, Danielle Gutelius, Stephen P.G. Moore, Dylan Friend, Isaac O'Toole, Brynnon E. Harman, Collin Montgomery, Robert A. Cornell, Alexander Birbrair, Jesse D. Riordan, Adam J. Dupuy, , Colin Kenny

This study shows that Mitfa-independent melanocyte progenitors in zebrafish are more susceptible to GNAQ-induced uveal melanoma than differentiated melanocytes.

Antagonistic Roles for MITF and TFE3 in Melanoma Plasticity

Jeremy Chang, Katelyn R. Campbell-Hanson, Marion Vanneste, Nicholas I. Bartschat, R. H. Nagel, Asdis K Arnadottir, Hong Nhung Vu, Collin Montgomery, Julius I. Yevdash, Jiarui Jiang, Ardith Bhinu, Annika Helverson, Michael D. Henry, Eirı́kur Steingrı́msson, Ronald J. Weigel, , Colin Kenny

This study identifies TFE3 and the non-canonical mTORC1 pathway as regulators of melanoma cell state plasticity, showing MITF suppresses the mesenchymal phenotype by modulating TFE3 expression.
