Abstract: The present invention includes compounds, compositions comprising the same, and methods using the compounds and/or compositions therein, for modulating skin pigmentation in a mammalian subject. In certain embodiments, the compounds of the invention treat or prevent skin disorders or diseases associated with hyperpigmentation in the subject. In other embodiments, the compounds of the invention act as antagonist to the non-canonical sex steroid hormone receptor GPRE1 and do not bind to a canonical nuclear estrogen receptor (ER). In yet other embodiments, the compounds of the invention comprise acts as agonists to the non-canonical sex steroid hormone receptor PAQR7 and do not bind to a canonical nuclear progesterone receptor (PR).

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of treating cancer in a subject with a ZIP9 inhibitor. In certain embodiments, the cancerous tissues do not express the nuclear androgen receptor (AR). These methods, alone or in combination with other cancer therapies, can improve treatment outcomes in patients suffering from cancer, particularly male patients.

Abstract: The present invention includes compositions and methods for using a chimeric antigen receptor that specifically binds to melanocortin receptor (MCR). The present invention relates generally to the treatment of a patient having cancer that expresses one or more melanocortin receptors (MCR), such as melanoma. The invention also includes methods of making a genetically modified T cell expressing a chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) that binds to MCR.
