research 644 Tumor cell adhesion as a risk factor for SLN metastasis and predictor of disease recurrence in primary cutaneous melanoma
Tumor cell adhesion is linked to higher risk of SLN metastasis and melanoma recurrence, and a model including these factors predicts these outcomes better than one with just clinical data.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Differentiation of cultured hair follicle neural crest stem cells into functional melanocytes
Hair follicle stem cells can become melanocytes to help treat skin depigmentation.
research 645 MIG6 is MEK-regulated and affects EGF-induced migration in mutant NRAS melanoma
Decreasing MIG6 can increase the movement and invasiveness of MEK-inhibited mutant NRAS melanoma, particularly when stimulated by EGF.
