The pigment producing melanocytes are derived from the neural crest cells and form precursor cells called melanoblasts. These cells proliferate and migrate to their destination in skin, hair and other organs where they differentiate into melanocytes which produce the pigment melanin. The Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is indispensable for the establishment of fully differentiated melanocytes. MITF controls the expression of genes required for melanocyte survival, proliferation and differentiation. Melanoma cells thus exploit the transcriptional activity of MITF to foster cancer progression. However, the role of MITF in regulating the metastatic potential of melanoma cells is complex and often leads to inconsistent fin...
