    Applications
    Melanocortin-5 receptor (MC5R) is another member of the melanocortin receptor family. Its expression is widespread, found in multiple tissues, including the skin, exocrine glands, and immune cells. In the context of the skin, MC5R plays a role in sebaceous gland secretion and has implications for conditions like acne. Additionally, its presence in immune cells suggests a role in modulating immune responses, though the exact mechanisms remain an active area of investigation. Given its diverse expression profile, MC5R represents a potential target for therapeutic interventions across various conditions, from dermatological to immunological disorders.

    What is the significance of MC5R in the context of energy balance and obesity? Jan 30 2020

    chat Patrick Liam (Creative Biolabs Scientific Support)

    MC5R plays a pivotal role in the regulation of energy balance and obesity. Its deficiency can lead to obesity due to increased food intake and reduced energy expenditure. Jan 30 2020

    How does MC5R relate to the immune response? Aug 17 2020

    chat Patrick Liam (Creative Biolabs Scientific Support)

    MC5R is involved in modulating the immune response, particularly in the context of sepsis. It can influence the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and impact the severity of sepsis. Aug 17 2020

    Published Data

    Fig.1 Influences of heightened MC5R expression on the modulation of a carefully chosen set of genes.

    The mRNA levels of carefully chosen DEGs were analyzed in goose primary hepatocytes, comparing those transfected with an MC5R overexpression vector to those with an empty vector. RT-qPCR measured the fold change relative to the control group, with UBC as the reference gene. Results marked with *, **, and *** represent p-values < 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001, respectively, with n = 6.

    Research Highlights

    Forraz N, et al. "The World's First Acne Dysbiosis-like Model of Human 3D Ex Vivo Sebaceous Gland ." Microorganisms, 2023.
    In this study, a novel model was developed to mimic acne-prone skin, incorporating a 10 ratio to C. acnes, reduced contact time, sequential inoculation, and rinsing step. Bioimaging techniques were used to demonstrate strong labeling of C. acnes in the active areas of the pilosebaceous unit. Additionally, S. epidermidis was found to form biofilm, as shown through non-specific fluorescence imaging, distributed across the sebaceous gland. Overall, this model successfully replicated the conditions of acne-prone skin, including lipid overproduction and inoculation with virulent phylotype IA C. acnes.

    Huang Y, et al. "Solar ultraviolet B radiation promotes alpha-MSH secretion to attenuate the function ." Nature communications, 2023.
    The study of the effects of ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation on human diseases has been documented. The direct relationship between solar UV radiation and type 2 lung inflammation is still unclear. A possible negative correlation between solar UVB radiation and asthmatic inflammation in humans and mice is demonstrated. Exposure to UVB induces hypothalamus-pituitary activation and regulates alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) levels, resulting in suppression of allergic airway inflammation by targeting group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) through the MC5R receptor in mice. This interaction restricts ILC2 function by attenuating JAK/STAT and NF-kappaB signaling. A negative correlation between plasma alpha-MSH concentration and the number and function of ILC2s in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of asthmatic patients is observed. The findings shed light on how solar UVB radiation and neuroendocrine alpha-MSH contribute to restricting ILC2-mediated lung inflammation and provide a potential approach for managing allergic diseases.
