Microsurgical reconstruction effectively covers complex scalp defects but doesn't improve survival for cancer-related cases.
research Odontogenic Keratocysts Arise from Quiescent Epithelial Rests and Are Associated with Deregulated Hedgehog Signaling in Mice and Humans
Odontogenic keratocysts are caused by abnormal Hedgehog signaling and can lead to tooth and bone issues.
research Expression of MK6a dominant-negative and C-terminal mutant transgenes in mice has distinct phenotypic consequences in the epidermis and hair follicle
Mutant MK6a transgenes in mice cause blistering, hair loss, and potential human alopecia.
research Biochemistry of epidermal stem cells
The review found that different stem cell types in the skin are crucial for repair and could help treat skin diseases and cancer.

Targeting EGFR may help reduce hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Genetic disorders of keratin: are scarring alopecias a sub-set?
Keratin mutations may cause scarring alopecia by damaging hair structure.
research The epidermal growth factor receptor decreases S tathmin 1 and triggers catagen entry in the mouse
EGFR helps mouse hair follicles stop growing by reducing certain growth regulators.
research Hair Follicle Disruption Facilitates Pathogenesis to UVB-Induced Cutaneous Inflammation and Basal Cell Carcinoma Development in Ptch+/− Mice
Damaged hair follicles make mice more prone to skin inflammation and skin cancer after UV exposure.
research The Scientific Legacy of Stephen Rothman
Stephen Rothman made important discoveries in dermatology, including the use of PABA in sunscreens, but never profited from his work.
