Coupling of melanocyte signaling and mechanics by caveolae is required for human skin pigmentation

Caveolae are plasma membrane invaginations playing crucial functions, like signal transduction and mechanoprotection. Here, the authors show that caveolae contribute to skin pigmentation by integrating the biochemical and mechanical response of epidermal melanocytes to extracellular cues.
