Growth Hormone Upregulates Melanocyte-Inducing Transcription Factor Expression and Activity via JAK2-STAT5 and SRC Signaling in GH Receptor-Positive Human Melanoma.

Further, in analyses of the GTEx (Genotype Tissue Expression) human post-mortem dataset containing samples from 53 non-diseased tissue sites for nearly 1000 individuals, we observed a highly significant correlation between GHR and MITF expression in sun-exposed (lower-leg; Pearson coefficient = 0.19, p = 0.00071) and not sun-exposed (suprapubic; Pearson coefficient = 0.25, p = 0.00011) normal human skin ( Figure 7 B).

In our RNA expression analyses, the tumors from bGH transgenic mice showed a nonsignificant trend towards an increase in MITF levels compared to WT, in both sexes ( Figure 6 A,B).
