The purpose of this study was to understand the changes of metabolic pathway induced by alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) in B16F10 melanoma cells in an untargeted metabolomics approach. Cells were treated with 100 nM of α-MSH and then incubated for 48 h. α-MSH increased tyrosinase activity and melanin content by 56.5 and 61.7%, respectively, compared to untreated cells after 48 h of cultivation. The clear separation between groups was observed in the principal component analysis score plot, indicating that the levels of metabolites of melanoma cells were altered by treatment with α-MSH. Metabolic pathways affected by α-MSH were involved in some amino acid metabolisms. The increased levels of fumaric acid, malic acid, oxaloacetic acid and citric acid related to the citric acid cycle pathway after α-MSH treatment suggested enhanced energy metabolism. Metabolic pathways altered by α-MSH treatment can provide useful information to develop new skin pigmentation inhibitors or anti-obesity drugs.

SUMMARY Various agents were tested for their ability to oppose the stimulatory effect of dibutyryl cyclic AMP on the release of the melanocyte-stimulating hormone from the rat neuro-intermediate lobe in vitro. Only dopamine exhibited an inhibitory effect; serotonin, γ-aminobutyric acid, tocinoic acid, tocinamide, the tripeptide Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2 and dibutyryl cyclic GMP were all ineffective.

Ziziphus jujuba extracts possess a broad spectrum of biological activities, such as antioxidant and anticancer activities in melanoma cancers. Nevertheless, the compounds contain high antioxidant capacities and anticancer activities in melanoma cells, shown to be effective in hyperpigmentation disorders, but whether flavonoid glycosides from Z. jujuba regulate anti-melanogenesis remains unclear. In this study, we evaluated the anti-melanogenic activity of five flavonoid glycosides from Z. jujuba var. inermis (Bunge) Rehder seeds, including jujuboside A (JUA), jujuboside B (JUB), epiceanothic acid (EPA), betulin (BTL), and 6’’’-feruloylspinosin (FRS), in B16F10 melanoma cells and zebrafish larvae. According to our results, JUB, EPA, and FRS potently inhibited α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH)-induced melanogenesis and prevented hyperpigmentation in zebrafish larvae. In particular, under α-MSH-stimulated conditions, FRS most significantly inhibited α-MSH-induced intracellular and extracellular melanin content in B16F10 melanoma cells. Additionally, JUB, EPS, and FRS remarkably downregulated melanogenesis in α-MSH-treated zebrafish larvae, with no significant change in heart rate. Neither JUA nor BTA were effective in downregulating melanogenesis in B16F10 melanoma cells and zebrafish larvae. Furthermore, JUB, EPA, and FRS directly inhibited in vitro mushroom tyrosinase enzyme activity. JUB, EPA, and FRS also downregulated cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels and the phosphorylation of cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB), and subsequent microphthalmia transcription factor (MITF) and tyrosinase expression. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that JUB, EPA, and FRS isolated from Z. jujuba var. inermis (Bunge) Rehder seeds exhibit potent anti-melanogenic properties by inhibition of the cAMP-CERB-MITF axis and consequent tyrosinase activity.

ABSTRACT We have examined the presence of 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin; 5-HT) in the intermediate lobe of the frog pituitary and investigated the effect of exogenous 5-HT on α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) release from the perifused neurointermediate lobe (NIL). Using a specific antiserum against 5-HT, the indirect immunofluorescence technique revealed the presence of 5-HT-like immunoreactivity (5-HT-LI) in discrete cells, generally gathered in small clusters among parenchymal cells, and in numerous neurites surrounding melanotrophic cells. At the electron microscopic level, using a silver-gold intensification procedure, 5-HT-LI was localized in dense-core secretory vesicles within specific pituitary cells which appear to be different from pituitary melanotrophs. Dense accumulation of gold particles was also observed in nerve fibres running between parenchymal cells. A combination of high-performance liquid chromatography analysis and electrochemical detection showed the presence of both 5-HT and its metabolite 5-hydroxyindol acetic acid (5-HIAA) in frog NIL extracts (534 ± 40 and 1245 ± 65 (s.e.m.) pg/mg wet tissue respectively). Administration of graded doses of 5-HT (from 1 to 30 μmol/l) to perifused frog NIL induced a dose-dependent inhibition of α-MSH release. Repeated pulses of 5-HT (10 μmol/l each) induced a reproducible inhibition of α-MSH without any desensitization phenomena. The inhibitory effect of 5-HT was partially blocked by the serotonergic antagonists methysergide and ICS-205-930 (10 μmol/l each). Concomitant administration of methysergide and ICS-205-930 (10 μmol/l each) totally abolished 5-HT-evoked inhibition of α-MSH. Fenfluramine, a releaser of 5-HT, induced a slight but significant reduction of α-MSH secretion. While 5-HT caused a marked inhibition of α-MSH release from intact NIL, 5-HT was devoid of effect on acutely dispersed pars intermedia cells suggesting that 5-HT does not exert a direct action on pituitary melanotrophs. We have examined the effect of specific dopaminergic, GABAergic and α-adrenergic antagonists on 5-HT-induced α-MSH inhibition. We observed that sulpiride and SR 95531 (10 μmol/l each) did not affect the response of NIL to 5-HT while yohimbine (10 μmol/l) suppressed the inhibitory action of 5-HT. Taken together, our results indicate that discrete cells of the frog pars intermedia contain the neurotransmitter 5-HT which may act locally to inhibit α-MSH release. Our data also suggest that the inhibitory effect of 5-HT is mediated via presynaptic stimulation of catecholamine (possibly norepinephrine) release from adrenergic nerve endings terminating in the intermediate lobe of the frog pituitary.
