Genetic mutation and carcinogen treatment are both needed for skin cancer to develop in these specific mice.
research Tebentafusp-tebn (Kimmtra®)
Tebentafusp-tebn improves survival rates in uveal melanoma patients but has common side effects like rash and fatigue.
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 Wound healing with topical BRAF inhibitor therapy in a diabetic model suggests tissue regenerative effects
A topical BRAF inhibitor, vemurafenib, can speed up wound healing and promote hair growth, especially in diabetic patients.
research Models for Skin Cancer
Malignant melanoma is the deadliest skin cancer, while BCC is the most common but rarely spreads, and SCC is more aggressive than BCC.
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 AMPK Phosphorylates ZDHHC13 to Increase MC1R Activity and Suppress Melanomagenesis
AMPK activation may reduce melanoma risk in red-haired individuals.
research Changes in Different Melanocyte Populations During Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)
Different melanocyte types in hair follicles either survive or die during the catagen phase.
research The potential impact of melanosomal pH and metabolism on melanoma
Melanin may help melanoma cells grow by aiding their metabolism.
research The Influence of Flightless I: Regeneration versus Wound Healing
Blocking RANK signaling might help treat metastatic melanoma, but more research is needed.
research Correction: RASopathic Skin Eruptions during Vemurafenib Therapy
Vemurafenib causes significant skin side effects, requiring regular dermatologist care and sun protection.
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 Editors' Picks
Activin increases skin tumor formation, skin Tregs help hair growth, lymph-node removal doesn't improve melanoma survival, cells can revert to stem cells in wound healing, and skin bacteria produce peptides that may treat infections.
research Desmoplastic melanoma presenting as an alopecic patch in a young patient
A man had a rare skin cancer that looked like a bald spot.
research The HPV16 oncogenes cause aberrant stem cell mobilization
HPV16 oncogenes disrupt the normal activity of hair follicle stem cells.
research Establishment and Characterization of Immortalized Human Dermal Papilla Cells Expressing Human Papillomavirus 16 E6/E7
