the latest discovery by experts at France's National Centre for Scientific Research that "sleeping" melanocytes re-divide and multiply, turning "beauty" into a deadly melanomaThe results were published recently in the journal Gene and DevelopmentThe article points out that due to genetic factors, the melanocytes in the black mole often enter the "aging period" after a period of rapid reproduction and division, and stop dividingHowever, after several years of "sleeping", some of the aging melanocytes suddenly start to divide and multiply again, causing the melanoma to develop into malignant melanomaA long-term study of the division mechanism of melanin cells by the Blackin Cell Genetics and Development Laboratory of the French National Scientific Research Center found that the "maker" who caused the re-reproduction of melanocytes was the beta-CATENINE protein, which inhibited the normal function of a gene in the body responsible for controlling cell decayFrench experts added that the medical community has long found that the protein plays a role in the division of skin cancer cells, but has not previously been able to reveal its cause of cell "non-death" mechanismAccording to the French National Centre for Scientific Research, the study has contributed significantly to scientific understanding of the pathogenesis of melanomaNow, researchers are stepping up the development of innovative therapeutic drugs and methods based on this finding
