More oxygen isn't always better and can sometimes be worse.
research Author response: Spatiotemporal dynamics of PIEZO1 localization controls keratinocyte migration during wound healing
Reducing PIEZO1 speeds up wound healing.
research Author response: Dynamics of nevus development implicate cell cooperation in the growth arrest of transformed melanocytes
Moles may stop growing because of cell cooperation, not just because of aging cells.
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 A New Look at the 5?-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride
