1 Pathophysiology of melasma Emel ERDAL ÇALIKOĞLU
2 First Strike in History! In the period of Seti I ( ) the oils and ointments were very essential needs in Egypt and the ointment distribution to workers was a habit! One day, the workers who built the temple, due to the lack of the oil to protect themselves against the sun rays, stopped going to work! İlter Uzel. Anadolu Uygarlıklarında Kozmetoloji. Lokman Hekim Journal, 2011; 1 (1): 47-54
3 Melasma in mythology! Melasma is a UV-induced disorder The term is derived from the greek «Melas» It means black! Melas, the son of Poseidon, who was said to have given his name to the famous river Melas in Egypt, which was later renamed Nile!
4
5 Melasma % prevalance in different populations; Common in women, in Hispanic, Asian, African American and, Middle Eastern population (especially in darker skin photoypes!)
6 Classical Influencing Factors Exposure to UV radiation Hormonal factors Genetic background Cosmetics Drugs like phenytoin
7 Etiological Factors in Melasma Factors Sunlight Hormonal Genetic Cosmetics Drugs Supportive evidences proposed Typical affection of the sun exposed areas, exacerbation of the lesion by light Frequent association with oral contraceptives, pregnancy, and endocrine dysfunction Occurence of familial cases Females more commonly affected Similar type of facial pigmentation within phenytoin therapy
8 Classical causative factors have an overestimated role in melasma?
9 Melasma is a component of photoaging! The answer is NO for UV! Lesional melasma skin show more prominent solar elastosis compared with normal skin Sarvjot V1, Sharma S, Mishra S, Singh A. Melasma: a clinicopathological study of 43 cases. Indian J Pathol Microbiol ;52(3):357-9.
10 Melanogenesis UVB POMC alpha-msh, ACTH + Tyrosinase Tyrosine MC1R Estrogen C-AMP DOPA Katiyar Shweta et al. A systematic review of melasma. Int J Cur Bio Med Sci. 2011; 1(2):
11 95% of the sun s UVR reaching the earth s surface is UVA! Only 2 to 5 % of UV light at the earth s surface is UVB Practically all of UVC and much of UVB are absorbed by ozone and atmposphere! (before ozon depletion!)
12 Deep effect of UVA!
13 Role of Hormones? 123 patients, 89.1 %, deranged levels of estrogen 55.1 %, deranged levels of PRG 97.1 %, PRL level were normal Role of estrogen, progesteron and prolactin in the ethiopathogenesis of melasma in females. Journal of Pakistan Association of Dermatologists 2011; 21:
14 Melasma in pregnancy The prevalance of melasma is 50-70% in pregnancy Hyperpigmentation in pregnancy has been attributed to increased output of some combination of placental, pituitary, and ovarian hormones; MSH, estrogen, progesterone, and bioactive sphingolipids derived from the placenta alpha-msh level is elevated, Beta-MSH is normal in late pregnancy
15 The role of ultraviolet radiation and 324 patients from 12 centres of nine countries; Half of the patients had a familial history of melasma Melasma affects most patients in the 3rd or the 4th decade The onset of the disease is found to be earlier in light skin types whereas dark skin types are usually associated with a late onset of melasma hormonal influences Ortonne JP, Arellano I, Berneburg M et al. A global survey of the role of ultraviolet radiation and hormonal influences in the development of melasma. J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol 2009; 23:
16 Only 20% of melasma occurred in the peripregnancy period The risk of onset during pregnancy was associated with having spent more time outdoors Increased use of sunscreen improved their melasma The contraceptive pills appear to have a weak impact The impact of the hormonal treatment is weak in case of familial history of melasma!
17 Melasma in Man? % in Indian males Malar component is common Testesteron level is low (testicular resistance?) Nutrition-Mustard oil? Dietilstilbestrol therapy for prostat CA
18 Old causative factors have an overestimated role in melasma? YES! There are increasing evidences showing that melanocytes are not the only cells involved, and that other players probably have a key role in the development and the relapses of melasma! Melasma pathogenesis and influencing factors an overview of the latest research. T. Passeron, JEADV 2013, 27 (Suppl.1), 5 6
19 Other players? Vascularisation Visible light Fibroblasts Mast cells Genes Lipid metabolism Keratinocytes
20 The vascular characteristic of melasma? Interactions between cutaneous vasculature and melanocytes may have influence on the developement of pigmentation because recent studies have suggested that; VGEF is known to sitimulate the release of arachidonic acid (AA), and its metabolites may affect melanogenesis The topical plasmin inhibitor, tranexamic acid and pulsed dye laser (PDL) are effective in the treatment of UV-induced hyperpigmentation Kim et al. The vascular characterictic of melasma. Journal of Dermatological Science 2007; 46:
21 Melasma & Angiogenesis A significant increase of both the number and size of dermal blood vessels in the lesional skin is one of the major findings in melasma The increase in the number of vessels is prominent than the increase in vessels size The number of vessels has a relationship with pigmentation in lesional skin.. Kim et al. The vascular characterictic of melasma. Journal of Dermatol Science 2007; 46:
22 Immunohistochemistry revealed enlarged and elongated blood vessels in the upper dermiş in melasma skin (B), as compared with perilesional normal skin (A). Kim et al. The vascular characterictic of melasma. Journal of Dermatological Science 2007; 46:
23 Visible Light & Melasma? In darker skin type, despite the use of very effective sunscreen, many patients with melasma may have relapses because; Both UVA and visible light are able to increase pigmentation The visible light pigmentation is more intense and more stable than UVA The use of tinted mineral sunscreens is recommended because they can protect the skin both against to UV and visible light!
24
25 Role of Fibroblasts? Dermal inflammation induced by chronic accumulation of UV irradiation may be associated with activation of fibroblasts, which result in the up-regulation of C kit ligand in melasma dermal skin leading to increased melanogenesis.. Sarvjot V1, Sharma S, Mishra S, Singh A. Melasma: a clinicopathological study of 43 cases. Indian J Pathol Microbiol ;52(3):357-9.
26 Role of Mast Cells? Mast cells were more prominent in the elastotic areas of melasma skin. Melasma could be a result of a cumulative sun exposure,in a microenvironment of cutaneous photoageing in which inflammatory cells, particularly mast cells, play a key role.. Role of Mast Cells in Melasma. Clin Exp Dermatol ;33(3):305-8
27 Gene Transcription in melasma 279 genes are up-regulated Melanin biosynthesis genes (TYR, MITF,SILV,TYRP1) Kang HY, Suzuki I, Lee DJ, Ha J, Reiniche P, Aubert J et al. Transcriptional profiling shows altered expression of wnt pathway- and lipid metabolism-related genes as well as melanogenesis-related genes in melasma.j Invest Dermatol 2011; 131:
28 Lipid metabolism in melasma? Lipid metabolism genes such as PPAR are down-regulated, by chronic UV exposure Thinning of the stratum corneum and impaired stratum corneum integrity may be a consequence of the disturbed lipid syntesis in melasma Kang HY, Suzuki I, Lee DJ, Ha J, Reiniche P, Aubert J et al. Transcriptional profiling shows altered expression of wnt pathway- and lipid metabolismrelated genes as well as melanogenesis-related genes in melasma.j Invest Dermatol 2011; 131:
29 Role of keratinocytes? H19, one of non-coding RNA, is down regulated in melanocytekeratinocyte co-culture The activation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (inos) and the activation of AKT/NF-kB pathway within keratinocyte induced by inos may sitimulate melanogenesis! Kim NH et al. H19 RNA downregulation stimulated melanogenesis in melasma. Pigment cell Melanoma Res 2010; 23: Jo HY, Kim CK, Suh IB et al. Co-localization of inducible nitric oxide synthase and phosphorylated Akt in the lesional skins of patients with melasma. J Dermatol 2009; 36:
30 Ekim, 2014
31 Melasma pathogenesis
32 Conclusion Melasma is a complex disorder and appears not to be only restricted to the melanocytes! Identifying those associated factors should provide new targets for a more efficient treatment of melasma and a better prevention of the relapses!
