120-150 / 1000+ resultsresearch Morphologic comparison of cultured human epidermis melanocytes,amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles and mouse melanoma cells observed by atomic force microscope
Melanin granules can be expelled by exocytosis.
research Decision letter: Interplay of opposing fate choices stalls oncogenic growth in murine skin epithelium
Skin cells can naturally limit the growth of cancerous changes by balancing cell renewal and differentiation.
research Basal cell carcinomas in mice arise from hair follicle stem cells and multiple epithelial progenitor populations
Basal cell carcinomas in mice can start from hair follicle stem cells and other skin cell types, depending on signaling levels.
research Melanotrichoblastoma: A Histopathological Case Report of a Rare Pigmented Variant of Trichoblastoma
A rare pigmented skin tumor called melanotrichoblastoma was diagnosed in a 51-year-old woman.
research Spatiotemporal Labeling of Melanocytes in Mice
The research showed how melanocytes develop, move, and respond to UV light, and their stem cells' role in hair color and skin cancer risk.
research 014 Non-melanoma skin cancer in skin of color: Cases of mistaken identity
Non-melanoma skin cancer in darker-skinned people can be misdiagnosed, so doctors need to be more aware to diagnose it correctly and early.
research 085 Autoantigen screening in C3H/HeJ mouse model of alopecia areata revealed high antigenicity of melanocyte-associated antigen epitopes
Melanocyte-associated antigens may play a key role in alopecia areata and could be targets for new treatments.
research Cutaneous melanoma, prostate-specific antigen testing and the subsequent risk of prostate cancer diagnosis: a prospective analysis of the 45 and Up Study
Men with melanoma have a higher risk of later being diagnosed with prostate cancer.
research Human dermal stem cells differentiate into functional epidermal melanocytes
Human dermal stem cells can become functional skin pigment cells.
research A keratin 15 containing stem cell population from the hair follicle contributes to squamous papilloma development in the mouse
Keratin 15 cells from hair follicles help develop and maintain skin tumors in mice.
research Stem Cells in Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer
Stem cells play a key role in nonmelanoma skin cancers, with different origins and genetic changes linked to basal and squamous cell carcinomas.
research A mouse model of vitiligo based on endogenous auto-reactive CD8 + T cell targeting skin melanocyte
A new mouse model effectively mimics vitiligo for research and drug testing.
research The malignant capacity of skin tumours induced by expression of a mutant H-ras transgene depends on the cell type targeted
The risk of skin tumors becoming malignant depends on the specific skin cell type affected.
research LOP12
Sentinel lymph node biopsy is recommended for all types of desmoplastic melanoma due to higher rates of nodal metastasis.
research LOP12
Sentinel lymph node biopsy is recommended for all types of desmoplastic melanoma due to higher rates of nodal metastasis.
research Isolated hyperthermic chemotherapy perfusion for limb melanoma is a safe procedure
Isolated limb perfusion is a safe and effective treatment for limb melanoma.
research The Roles of S100 Proteins and RAGE in Melanoma
High S100B protein levels indicate poor survival in advanced melanoma.
research Melanocyte Pygmentation – Friend or Foe on the Route to Melanoma
Darker skin provides more protection against UV damage and cancer.
research Transplantation of melanocyte stem cells in vitiliginous skin
Transplanting melanocyte stem cells from hair follicles can effectively treat vitiligo.
research Excessive hair growth around local β‐interferon injection sites for malignant melanoma
β-interferon injections for melanoma can cause excessive hair growth at the injection sites.
research 1272 p21Waf1/Cip1 is differentially expressed in epidermal versus follicular melanocytes and melanoma cells and is phenotypically regulated by UVB-mediated apoptosis
The protein p21 is more abundant in normal skin cells than in melanoma cells and may help protect against melanoma, with UVB light affecting its levels.
research The ‘melanocyte-keratin’ mystery revisited: neither normal human epidermal nor hair follicle melanocytes express keratin 16 or keratin 6in situ
Human melanocytes in skin and hair follicles don't express keratin 16 or 6 naturally.
research RAGE and Its Ligands in Melanoma
RAGE is a potential target for melanoma treatment, but its effectiveness is uncertain due to variable expression levels.
research The potential impact of melanosomal pH and metabolism on melanoma
Melanin may help melanoma cells grow by aiding their metabolism.
research Resolution of paraneoplastic alopecia areata following nivolumab in a patient with metastatic melanoma
Nivolumab treatment led to hair regrowth in a man with metastatic melanoma and alopecia areata.
research A Monoclonal Antibody Established from the Immunization of Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) Tissues Reacts to the Intercellular Space of BCC and Hair Follicles
The antibody created from BCC tissues reacts similarly to both BCC and hair follicles, suggesting BCC may come from hair follicle cells.
research Dopa oxidase activity in the hair, skin and ocular melanocytes is increased in the presence of stressed fibroblasts
Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.
research RASopathic Skin Eruptions during Vemurafenib Therapy
Vemurafenib causes skin side effects similar to RASopathies, requiring regular skin checks and UVA protection.
