Background: Human skin pigmentation is a complex phenotype governed by an interplay of genetic, biochemical, and physiological factors. Melanogenesis involves tightly regulated enzymatic pathways that control the balance between eumelanin and pheomelanin synthesis, ultimately determining individual skin color and influencing susceptibility to pigmentation disorders and UV-related health outcomes.
Methods: An extensive literature review was conducted to construct a comprehensive molecular framework of skin pigmentation. Key genes involved in melanogenesis, including TYR, along with regulatory microRNAs (miRNAs), were systematically analyzed. Relevant studies addressing environmental influences—particularly ultraviolet (UV) exposure—and pigmentation disorders were also evaluated.
Results: This review elucidates the central roles of melanogenic genes and miRNAs in regulating pigment production and melanocyte function. Multiple miRNAs were identified as critical modulators of melanogenesis-related pathways. Furthermore, the molecular mechanisms underlying pigmentation disorders, including oculocutaneous albinism, were characterized. Environmental factors, especially UV radiation, were shown to exert significant effects on melanogenic signaling and skin color variation.
Conclusion: Skin pigmentation is regulated through a multifaceted network of genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. By integrating current molecular insights, this review advances understanding of melanogenesis and associated disorders, providing a robust foundation for future research and potential therapeutic strategies targeting pigmentation-related conditions.
