research Clinical and Molecular Diagnostic Criteria of Congenital Atrichia with Papular Lesions11This paper originally appeared in issue 117:1662–1665, 2001. Following publication the authors indicated that important corrections at page proof were not taken in. To ensure that the paper is published as intended, the editors have decided to reproduce the contents in full.

Mice with extra PKCδ resist chemical-induced skin cancer but not UV-induced.
research Molecular functional analyses revealed essential roles of HSP90 and lamin A/C in growth, migration, and self-aggregation of dermal papilla cells
HSP90 and lamin A/C are crucial for hair growth and could be targets for treating hair loss.
research Abstracts from the 4th Annual Student Medical Summit
The document concludes that more research is needed to reduce frequent hospital visits, addiction medicine education improves with specific training, early breast cancer surgery findings are emerging, nipple smears are not very accurate, surgery for older melanoma patients doesn't extend life, a genetic condition in infants can often be treated with one drug, doctors are inconsistent with blood clot medication, a certain gene may protect against cell damage, muscle gene overexpression affects many other genes, and some mitochondrial genes are less active in mice with tumors.
