270-300 / 1000+ results research Coming of Age of Melanogenesis-Related Proteins
Tyrosinase and gp100 proteins can help diagnose and treat melanoma.
research Abstract 4385: Live-imaging the interface between homeostasis and cancer initiation
Mutant cells in hair follicles are influenced by their location and interactions with surrounding cells.
research Clinical Snippets
Some cells may slow melanoma growth, a protein could affect skin pigmentation, a gene-silencing method might treat hair defects, skin bacteria changes likely result from eczema, and a defensin protein could help treat multiple sclerosis.
research Interaction between stem cell factor and endothelin-1: effects on melanogenesis in human skin xenografts
SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.
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 The Cutaneous Side Effects of Selective BRAF Inhibitors and Anti-CTLA4 Agents: the Growing Role of the Dermatologist in the Management of Patients with Metastatic Melanoma
Dermatologists are crucial for managing skin side effects in metastatic melanoma patients using vemurafenib and ipilimumab.
research The HPV16 oncogenes cause aberrant stem cell mobilization
HPV16 oncogenes disrupt the normal activity of hair follicle stem cells.
research GENOTYPE ? PHENOTYPE CORRELATIONS IN CUTANEOUS MELANOMA PATIENTS CARRIER OF THE MITF p.E318K PATHOGENIC VARIANT
MITF+ melanoma patients are more likely to have multiple melanomas and unique skin patterns.
research Melanocortin receptors in fibroblastic cell types of the skin –in vitro and in vivo expression and functional relevance
MC-1R is present in skin cells and may help reduce inflammation.
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 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 Anatomic location of primary melanoma: Survival differences and sun exposure
Where melanoma is on the body affects survival chances; melanomas on the back of the head are worse, while those on thighs and arms are less severe, and more sun exposure might improve survival.
research 696 MEK and BRAF inhibitors augment the production and accumulation of sebum in hamster sebocytes
MEK and BRAF inhibitors increase sebum production and accumulation, which could cause acne-like side effects.
research Melanocytes: The new Black
Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.
research 15460 Perifollicular pink halo: A potential dermoscopic marker of inflammation in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Certain immune markers may predict chemotherapy response in mesothelioma, and nivolumab is a tolerable and effective treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
research AMPK Phosphorylates ZDHHC13 to Increase MC1R Activity and Suppress Melanomagenesis
AMPK activation may reduce melanoma risk in red-haired individuals.
research Targeting the (Un)differentiated State of Cancer
Less differentiated melanoma cells are more vulnerable to a type of cell death, which could improve cancer treatments.
research Overexpression of human keratin 16 produces a distinct skin phenotype in transgenic mouse skin
High levels of human keratin 16 in mice cause skin lesions and abnormal skin development.
research Establishment and Characterization of Immortalized Human Dermal Papilla Cells Expressing Human Papillomavirus 16 E6/E7
Immortalized human dermal papilla cells were created that grow better and can still help form hair.
research Melanocytes in regenerative medicine applications and disease modeling
Melanocytes are important for normal body functions and have potential uses in regenerative medicine and disease treatment.
research Cutaneous toxicities of new treatments for melanoma
New melanoma treatments can cause skin side effects, including skin cancer and rashes, but combining treatments may reduce these risks.
research Increased expression of keratin 16 causes anomalies in cytoarchitecture and keratinization in transgenic mouse skin.
Too much keratin 16 in mice skin causes abnormal skin thickening and structure.
