270-300 / 1000+ resultsresearch 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 Plerixafor Biases CXCR4 Signaling Through β-Arrestin to Promote Melanogenesis via β-Catenin–MITF Activation
Plerixafor may help treat pigmentation disorders by promoting skin repigmentation.
research The Roles of S100 Proteins and RAGE in Melanoma
High S100B protein levels indicate poor survival in advanced melanoma.
research Melanocyte progenitor cells reside in human subcutaneous adipose tissue
Melanocyte progenitor cells are found in human fat tissue and can become mature melanocytes, which may help treat skin issues.
research 131 Mutational landscape of extramammary Paget disease
The document concludes that ERBB2 mutations are common in extramammary Paget disease and may respond to systemic treatments like cancer immunotherapy.
research 0959 Effects of M1 homeopathic complex on human melanoma cells
M1 homeopathic complex may help slow melanoma cell growth.
research Tumour regression predicts higher risk of sentinel node involvement in thin cutaneous melanomas
Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling controls hair pigmentation by means of cross-talk with the melanocortin receptor-1 pathway
BMP signaling affects hair color by interacting with the MC-1R pathway.
research Data from Elevated Cutaneous Smad Activation Associates with Enhanced Skin Tumor Susceptibility in Organ Transplant Recipients
Higher TGF-β signaling may increase skin cancer risk in organ transplant recipients.
research Skin precancer.
Sun exposure and genetics increase skin cancer risk from precancerous lesions.
research Multimodal therapeutic approach for a severe case of kaposiform lymphangiomatosis from procedural interventions to targeted therapies
Trametinib can effectively treat severe kaposiform lymphangiomatosis when other treatments fail.
research Giant pigmented tumour of the scalp—a diffuse neurofibroma or a congenital naevus showing neurofibromatous changes? Immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies
The tumor likely shows dual neural crest differentiation.
research Frequent downregulation of DMBT1 and galectin‐3 in epithelial skin cancer
DMBT1 and galectin-3 may help suppress epithelial skin cancer.
research 1360 Regulation of bmp signalling in melanogenesis, pigment transfer and melanocyte migration
BMP signaling is important for skin color, affecting melanin production, pigment spread, and cell movement.
research Direct cellular reprogramming enables development of viral T antigen–driven Merkel cell carcinoma in mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research The potential impact of melanosomal pH and metabolism on melanoma
Melanin may help melanoma cells grow by aiding their metabolism.
research An in vivo method for the detection of somatic mutations at the cellular level in mice
A new method can detect mutations in mice by observing changes in hair follicle cells.
research Clinical Snippets
A bull with a gene mutation was asymptomatic, synthetic retinoids cause hair loss, and new therapeutic targets were identified for skin diseases.
research 1379 Cell of origin contributes to the melanoma diversity
Different types of stem cells in the skin contribute to the variety of melanoma forms.
research Dysplastic nevi, cutaneous melanoma, and other skin neoplasms in patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1: A cross-sectional study
People with myotonic dystrophy type 1 have a higher chance of getting skin tumors, including melanoma.
research Predictors of sentinel lymph node metastasis in melanoma
Thicker melanomas and nodular types are more likely to spread to sentinel lymph nodes.
research Data from Spontaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Induced by the Somatic Inactivation of Retinoblastoma and Trp53 Tumor Suppressors
Loss of the p53 gene alone causes tumors, and losing both p53 and Rb genes speeds up aggressive skin cancer.
research PC-SPES Studies Promising, But Manufacturer Shuts Down
Promising cancer treatments were found, but the manufacturer closed.
research Data from Spontaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Induced by the Somatic Inactivation of Retinoblastoma and Trp53 Tumor Suppressors
Loss of the p53 gene alone causes tumors, and losing both p53 and Rb genes speeds up aggressive skin cancer.
research TLRgeting Evasion of Immune Pathways in Glioblastoma
Some brain cancer cells avoid immune system detection, and certain treatments could target this to slow their growth; also, certain fat cell precursors help regenerate hair and skin after injury.
research Choroidal Melanoma and Lid Fibrofoliculomas in Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome
A patient with Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome also had choroidal melanoma, suggesting the need for careful eyelid exams in such patients.
research Dermoscopy of Thick Scalp Melanoma: Is It Always an Easy Diagnosis?
Thick scalp melanoma can be hard to diagnose because it often looks like other skin conditions.
research Perifollicular Melanocyte Regeneration in Bullous Pemphigoid
Melanocytes can regenerate around hair follicles in bullous pemphigoid, especially in patients with darker skin.
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.
